      Can’t book single tickets
      Couldn’t book a single ticket it only allows for two or more people. When I travel I’m usually alone and would have loved to book this tour.

      More than just a tour!
      This was more than a tour, it was an experience! We learned so much about Atlanta as our guide catered the tour to our desires. We felt completely comfortable and at ease, as if we were with family! We personally witnessed our guide protect a very sacred Atlanta site not because she had to but because she cared. This stood out and left an indelible impact on us. Book if you are looking for someone who will introduce you to important sites, provide historical context, and takes pride in their city, we highly recommended it!!

      The Guide saved this day!
      We had a bumpy start. We waited for the 9 oclock pick up and the tour was a no-show. Calls to the office were not answered so we called Viator. They managed to get hold of the company. More than an hour later we got a pick up. First impressions weren't great. A van with a cracked windshield, broken side mirror, and seat belts that dropped to the floor each time you left the van. The tour guide Shelly was a gem! She had a lot of knowledge and when we told her we were not interested in old white dude history she happily focused on MLK and the history of civil rights in Atlanta.

      Tour of Atlanta
      This was absolutely the best tour that I have ever had in my lifetime and one you will not want to miss! Ms. Shelley of Peachy Keen Tourism, is an outstanding professional, and passionate tour guide. She knows her historical background around all neighborhoods and areas of Atlanta Georgia coupled with events, key historical dates of all of Atlanta’s history, periods of events and the numerous sites that she will take you to visit. Ms. Shelley uses storytelling, humor, and total brilliance throughout the tour to guide you and teach you new things about Atlanta. We started our tour at the Governor’s mansion where everyone knew Ms. Shelley and provided us with a memorable warm welcome as a result. I actually had an opportunity to meet and take pictures with the Governor’s wife and staff. Ms. Shelley provided me with a 4.5 hour tour which was exciting and scenic the entire time coupled with her passion and love for Atlanta, Georgia. I plan to use her for other unique and innovative private tours that she has created for the city of Atlanta as well as neighboring sites and suburbs of Atlanta including museums, shopping centers, Buckhead, mid town, downtown, Westend and beautiful million dollar mansions, the Martin Luther historical site and areas of your own personal interest. This tour by Peachy Keen is one of the best gems of Atlanta Georgia. Valorie Moore

      A first class tour
      Shelly is a great guide and a truly lovely person. She has a fantastic knowledge of Atlanta and its history. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed her tour and the four hours just seem to fly by.Shelly is a conservationist and is actively involved with the preservation of old Atlanta, just don’t get her started on the subject as she can talk about it a bit.. I thoroughly recommend this tour and give it five stars.

      Atlanta City Tour
      My daughter and I took a city tour of Atlanta with Ms Keen. The tour provided a broad visit of Atlanta that helped us decide the areas to later visit on our own time. She was very friend and knowledgeable. It was a great way to spend our first day in Atlanta. Highly recommend her tour.

      I had a great visit with Shelly! We toured the different parts of town. Some of the places we visited were the Governors mansion, the Carter Center and she showed me where Martin Luther King was born. Thanks for showing me the town.

      Great Atlanta Tour
      Our tour of Atlanta couldn't have been better. We were given an excellent tour of the entire city while still being able to see things that we requested. History and historical facts were amazing. Great driver as well.

      Best tour we have ever had.
      We had an open afternoon and called to see if we could get on a city tour. It was arranged in just a few minutes and Shelley picked us up at our hotel. She even gave us instructions as to how best to get to the rental car area at the airport. We had a private tour, seeing so many places, some that we didn't even know to ask about. She had great information about all of it. We think that she should be awarded "Best tour guide" in Atlanta.

    Scam, stay away!
    I bought two tickets to take a guided tour in Atlanta. We showed up on time at the indicated place. Since no one showed up, I called Mrs. Shelly from the contact, who told me that the tour would not start in the morning and offer me an afternoon tour. Since we couldn't in the afternoon, I asked for a refund and she agree. But then the refund never came after many attempts to contact her via phone, Whatsapp and email. I made a complaint to my card, Peachy Keen Tourism replied that it was me who didn't show up, no refund will be granted. So they scammed me U$S 150, I never expected something like that in the United States paying with an international card.

    Tour was informative. However, tour was 45-50 minutes shorter than advertised. There were only 2 stops and time spent at those were very short. Guide was very opinionated and not very professional. We were in a rattle trap of a large van. This definitely not worth the $75 I paid per person.

    I think my expectations are just too high. This is the second time I’ve booked a tour like this and have felt like it could have been so much more organized and professional. Our guide, Miss Shelly, was nice enough. She was very knowledgeable and kind, but I was hoping for a more structured experience. It would have been great to have an overview of the day to begin with. And to have almost a script for the guide to follow. We got a lot of personal opinion and commentary and a lot of repeat information. She was also almost hit a few times for not paying attention on the road. Did we enjoy ourselves? Yes. Did we see a lot of Atlanta? Indeed. But is there room for improvement? Absolutely. In hindsight, I should have picked a few destinations and gone on our own to explore them.

    Too much driving and not enough history of Atlanta. Rushed at the governor’s house. After 3 hours we asked if we’re still stopping at Ebenezer Church and Dr Martin Luther center which was on the tour the driver said we can. This was the main reason we were on the tour. She gave us 20 minutes which was not enough time so we said we are going to end our tour there. There was so much history there we spent slot on time there.

    Just what we were looking for during our first ever weekend trip to Atlanta. We had a half day to see some of the sights and Shelly delivered. She was knowledgeable and very engaging. The visit to the Carter Center and Ebenezer Baptist church were among the highlights of our tour.

    Lots of things to see in Atlanta, and Shelly made the most of a half day tour. She was fun, helpful, and wee enjoyed the tour in the van. This tour seemed to focus more on houses and different neighborhoods, but that was helpful traveling with a 30-year native of Atlanta.

    This was a great tour led by a great tour guide. Turned out there was only two of us on this tour so we rode around in a big SUV. Nice and cool in the hot weather. We saw many historic sites and wonderful homes. The visit to the Martin Luther King Center was very moving and thought provoking. We then visited the Jimmy Carter Presidential Museum learning things that made me more appreciative of the man before, during, and after his Presidency. We were taken to Ponce Market to do a little shopping and eat lunch.
