Atlanta 2-Day Trip Guide (No Car Needed!) ππ
Hereβs a quick guide to exploring Atlanta without a car β based on my recent trip, including some real-talk on safety and logistics! π¨ Safety First I felt Atlantaβs rep for being unsafe firsthand. On the train, we saw someone with a weapon just meters away. Scary stuff β especially for women traveling alone. β Tip: Avoid solo travel if possible. Use Uber/Lyft, especially after dark, and wait indoors for your ride. π Getting Around MARTA Train: Download the Breeze Mobile 2 app to buy tickets ($2.50 per ride). The system is simple but dated. Rideshare: Lyft is often cheaper than Uber. Use Google Maps to compare prices. From the Airport: Take the northbound train to downtown, or just rideshare (~$25 to Aquarium area). π€οΈ Weather Early May was warm during the day β a light long sleeve in the morning, but prepare for heat by noon! π¨ Where to Stay We stayed downtown near the Aquarium and World of Coke β safe, quiet, and walkable. Contrary to some advice, you donβt have to stay in Midtown. Just avoid areas south of downtown. π Food Picks Urban Hai (Chinese): Solid but not mind-blowing. My Egyptian friend loved it though! Atlanta Breakfast Club: Famous spot with huge portions. Try the Chicken & Waffle Sandwich π§π Politan Row at Colony Square: A trendy food hall with tons of options. You can enjoy Atlanta without a car β just plan smart, stay aware, and treat yourself to some great Southern eats along the way. #AtlantaTravel #NoCarNeeded #TravelSafe #ATLGuide #FoodAndTravel βοΈπ§³
