Visit Rita's alma mater in Athens and see the beautiful historic campus, the iconic Sanford Stadium, and classic southern charm. Favorite food spots are Mama's Boy for brunch, or Cali n' Tito's for tacos, or Creature Comforts for local craft beer. Pro tip: don't walk underneath the Arch in North Campus unless you're an alum. Go Dawgs!
Ponce City Market is where we went on one of our first dates, and right across from where we got engaged at Old Fourth Ward Park. Visit the food hall for a bite and get some shopping in! Rita's favorites are Bellina Alimentari and Reformation, and Binh's are El Super Pan and Lululemon.
Visit the Beltline to find something for everyone. From there, you can walk, bike, or scooter to food halls like Ponce or Krog, breweries like New Realm, and shopping to your heart's content.
The Georgia Aquarium is one of the largest aquariums in the world, and one of Rita and Binh's favorite places to visit. We highly recommend the dolphin show and spending time watching the penguin exhibit. If you also want to visit the World of Coca-Cola, we recommend buying an Atlanta City Pass.
Atlanta is the home of Coca-Cola, so what other place is better to go and try sodas from around the world? Rita's favorite is Cherry Coke, and Binh loves Diet Coke. If you also want to visit the Georgia Aquarium, we recommend buying an Atlanta City Pass.
The City Pass will give you the best value for visiting multiple Atlanta attractions, including the World of Coca-Cola, Georgia Aquarium, and Zoo Atlanta.
