Wander Atlanta's oldest cemetery, a Victorian garden of Confederate and civil rights figures, golfer Bobby Jones, and 19th-century mausoleums — with a historian, not a crowd.
What to expect
Your guide walks you through shaded, sculpture-lined lanes past the graves of golf legend Bobby Jones, Margaret Mitchell, and thousands of Confederate soldiers, alongside the African American Grounds where formerly enslaved Atlantans are buried. Roses and boxwoods planted by volunteers make it feel more like a garden than a graveyard. It's a quiet, contemplative counterpoint to downtown's bustle.

Good to know
Private tours must be booked at least a week ahead; the cemetery is a 10-minute drive from downtown and rideshares are easy to find at the gate.
