As we roll through the city, your tour guide—a local comedian—brings Atlanta’s sights, sounds, and history to life with a fun mix of stand-up, improv, music, games, and plenty of crowd interaction. We feature a diverse lineup of comedians whose styles range widely, so no two tours are ever the same. Tours can include light hearted jokes or bold, unfiltered humor, and as noted in our disclaimer, this is a rated R experience (intended for ages 17+)—similar to the kind of comedy you’d hear in a comedy club, mixed with improv. Bring your own beer or wine, sit back, and enjoy this high energy and fun-filled adults only experience. It’s the perfect way to see the city, have some laughs, and soak up all the good vibes Atlanta has to offer. Halfway through the tour, there’s a 15-minute beverage and bathroom break.
