Brief History of Atlanta
In 1837, Atlanta was founded as the end of the Atlantic Railroad Line, which is why it’s now called “Atlanta” (the feminine form of Atlantic). The railroad expanded and Atlanta became a bustling intersection between multiple railroads and gained a reputation as an emerging transportation hub.
During the Civil War, the city of Atlanta was burned and destroyed by General William Sherman’s military campaign.
But the city didn’t stay down for long, making a quick recovery and creating many new businesses. And from that moment on, Atlanta became the unofficial capital of the “New South.”
Today, the rebuilt Atlanta is still known as a transportation hub. Atlanta is home to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, which is the world’s busiest airport in terms of daily passenger flights.
The airport offers direct flights to and from hundreds of locations across the US and all over the world, contributing to the continued evolution of Atlanta’s culture.
How to get to Atlanta
A weekend in Atlanta couldn’t be easier. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) is the busiest airport in the world. (Yes, in the world!). Hartsfield-Jackson even holds a world record of serving more than 100 million people in a single year.
ATL offers non-stop flights to over 150 domestic destinations and 70 international destinations, making Atlanta a convenient place to visit no matter your point of origin.
Once you arrive at the airport, you can enjoy over 300 different venues including plenty of shops and restaurants. The airport also has an art program that features various exhibits and performances that you can enjoy during your lengthy layover – just don’t miss your next flight!.
Getting Around Atlanta
1. MARTA
If you’re wondering how to get around on your weekend trip to Atlanta, MARTA (Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority) might be the best option. MARTA has been around since 1971 and it’s the main transportation system in Atlanta, providing around 420,000 daily passenger trips.
MARTA operates buses, trains, and streetcars, which run nearly all day and night.
Plus, MARTA will take you to and from the airport. MARTA’s Airport Station is located inside the domestic terminal.
MARTA is affordable as well. A single trip only costs $2.50! Considering the cost of a rideshare (Uber/Lyft) can run you $40+ from the airport to downtown, this MARTA option is an absolute steal!
You can purchase one of MARTA’s convenient Breeze cards as well for only $2. You can load your card with as many trips as you need. Once you have the card, just go to the station and look for the blue Breeze targets, then simply tap your Breeze Card on these targets and go! No hassles.
MARTA is safe and clean. Please keep in mind that like any major city, some areas are better than others. Know which stop you need before getting off and pay attention to your surroundings.
2. Scooters
Renting an electric scooter is a great way to get around on your weekend in Atlanta. They’re easy, convenient, and environmentally friendly.
You can rent a scooter from 3 companies in Atlanta: Bird, Lime, and Spin. The unlocking fee ranges from $1 to $3.50 and the cost per minute for each company is $0.39.
3. Rideshare (Uber/Lyft)
Ridesharing is perfect for those who want an affordable and convenient way to get around on their weekend in Atlanta. We usually prefer NOT to drive because Atlanta traffic sucks and parking can be a b****!
You can use ridesharing.com, which will put you with a driver going to the same destination that you are or you can use apps like Uber and Lyft.
Uber and Lyft both have luxury cars available as well as an “XL” option for larger groups of up to 6 people.
4. Rent a Car
Renting a car is a great choice for those who have families or people who want the freedom to drive wherever they want whenever they want without restrictions. The upside to Atlanta is the great public transportation. The downside is traffic and parking.
When we rent, we usually go through National Car Rental. If you’re around for just a weekend, it might be cheaper to Rideshare.
Where to Stay Downtown
Booking.com probably has the widest selection of budget (and luxury) accommodations in the world. In our experience, we consistently found the cheapest rooms using Booking.com. We also like their easy-to-use interface and no money down policy. When we book our travel stays, we personally use Booking.com.
Hyatt Regency Atlanta
If you need a place to stay downtown during your weekend in Atlanta, we recommend the Hyatt Regency Atlanta close to Centennial Park. This hotel is conveniently located next to many attractions like the World of Coca Cola, the Georgia Aquarium, Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site.
There are many amenities at the Hyatt Regency Atlanta hotel, including the iconic rotating restaurant, an outdoor pool, a gym, and free WiFi as well as flat-screen TVs in every room.

Brand loyal to a specific hotel? Book your stay at other chain hotels downtown:
Other areas – Midtown
If being downtown isn’t your scene, we’d suggest checking out Midtown. A few MARTA stops north of Centennial Park, Midtown offers a more laid back vibe and definitely more opportunities to drink local.
You’ll be closer to Ponce City Market and the Beltline which are both full of incredible eats and local favorites!
It can be a smidge pricier than downtown, so it would depend on your plans for your weekend in Atlanta.
Our top suggestions are:
- Wylie Hotel – next to Ponce City Market
- Hotel Midtown Atlanta – rooftop pool
- Atlanta Marriott Suites Midtown

The Atlanta Falcons football team has been around for 55 years and won division championships 6 times. They have also played in 2 Super Bowls.

15. Drink Local Beer
There are plenty of breweries to visit in Atlanta, but we have picked some of our favorite to talk about here. We’ll be coming out with an Atlanta Breweries post asap.
Monday Night Brewing
The founders of Monday Night Brewing actually met each other at a Bible Study group, and in order to get to know each other better, they got together on Monday nights to homebrew.
Each of the founders had regular tie-wearing day jobs, so they would loosen their ties on Monday evenings before brewing and doing what they loved.
Hence why you’ll see a massive wall of neckties when you visit their original location in Midtown.
Monday Night released its first beers to the market back in 2011, opened a taproom in 2013, and opened another location in 2017, called Monday Night Garage, which is where they do all of their barrel-aging, sour beers, and experimentation.
Today, they also have locations in Nashville, TN and Birmingham, AL.
Some of their go-to beers include the Blind Pirate blood orange IPA, the Taco Tuesday Mexican lager, and the Drafty Kilt scotch ale.
Come tie one on at Monday Night Brewing, where “weekends are overrated.”
Atlanta Brewing Company
Atlanta Brewing Company was Georgia’s first craft brewery way back in 1993 and has been at the forefront of the Atlanta craft beer scene ever since.
If the name today seems unfamiliar, that’s because the brewery actually changed names to Red Brick Brewing Company in 2010, before rebranding back to the original Atlanta Brewing name in 2018 to celebrate its 25th anniversary.
You can find some of their beer staples like the Hoplanta West Coast IPA all throughout Atlanta, but you’ll have to visit the taproom to try some of their over 20 beers on tap, some of which are never packaged and/or exclusive to the taproom.
They currently have a series out called the Aquarium Series, for which a portion of each beer goes to support the Georgia Aquarium’s research and conservation efforts around the world. If you needed a reason to stop by, consider this drinking for a good cause!
Check out the Tiger Shark Stout (sweet stout brewed with dulce de leche, coffee, and cinnamon) or the Stingray Sour (tart ale brewed with cranberry, orange, and sea salts).
SweetWater Brewery
One of Atlanta’s (and the country’s) most recognizable craft breweries, SweetWater Brewing Company has been around since 1997 brewing up its iconic 420 Extra Pale Ale, along with numerous other hoppy creations.
Their taproom was expanded and updated a few years ago and now has a full kitchen to go along with its 24 taps that are constantly rotating. There is a fantastic patio and even a stage for live music.
SweetWater has been a family-favorite for many years during the holidays when Chris, his siblings, and any significant others got back together.
Come check it out for yourself and remember, “don’t float the mainstream as we all find our path in life.”
Atlanta Beer Bus
The Atlanta Beer Bus is a great way to experience all that the Atlanta craft beer scene has to offer without having to worry about transportation in between each stop.
Usually, on Fridays and Sundays, you can book a hop-on/hop-off shuttle that runs in a continuous loop so you can just get on and off whenever you want.
Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, this option is not available currently, but they hope to return for this very soon. It’s a great deal at only $15 for Friday and $20 for Sunday.
Although the HOP-on/HOP-off shuttles aren’t available right now, the Atlanta Beer Bus is still offering four different guided tours so you can have a more personalized experience.
You’ll get to visit four different locations and receive a drink ticket at three of your stops, plus a personal “Beer Nerd” for expert tips along the way.
These tours are $50 per person and require a minimum of six riders and a maximum of 14.
