Unexpected Atlanta

Unexpected Atlanta is Atlanta’s favorite walking tour company. We are Atlanta history experts, passionate storytellers, and home-grown Atlanta natives. That’s not just marketing fluff: we have *literally* written the book on Atlanta’s culinary history and we know all of the secret nooks and crannies in this city that you can only discover through exhaustive research and a whole lot of living here.

Our unforgettable Atlanta History Tour of the Old Fourth Ward neighborhood tells the story of Martin Luther King Jr., with an in-depth look at the people and locations that inspired him. We want to help you get the most of the massive King Historic Area. We will show you the best of it, with forgotten spots that even locals don’t know, in just 2.5 amazing hours. You’ll walk away from our tour with a strong understanding of how Atlanta changed the world.
