Kevin AccettullaOctober 27, 2016Take the Morning Express VIP Tour. It's $49 but well worth it. You get to see CNN/HLN newsrooms, you get to actually go in the HLN control room, and you get a nice VIP lanyard and a nice thermal mug
Intown Expert, Jennifer Kjellgren & AssociatesJanuary 29, 2013Atlanta residents and out-of-towners should check out the Inside CNN Studio Tour for a behind-the-scenes glimpse of TV magic. $15 for adults; $14 for seniors and students; $12 for kids.
Benjamin SzwedaMay 23, 2015The VIP tour is an amazing value! Unbelievable access. Photos allowed everywhere! Several opportunities for a photo-op as an anchor, weatherman, etc... See control room, newsroom and studios!
J.W. MoellerJuly 25, 2012Stop here only of you have a City Pass. The tour is nothing but "Here's a studio, here's another, here's a room of employees, and another, now an out of place 'movie,' now exit through the gift shop."
Ricky SuyonoJuly 19, 2013Go here for lunch and people watching. Don't think the tour is worth it. Go to the CNN store for souvenirs and take picture by the large CNN logo.
News 95-5 and AM 750 WSBJuly 12, 2013It opened in 1976, housing a hotel, fine shops, restaurants, and two 14-story office buildings. It also offered an indoor amusement park and an ice-skating rink.
Justine MJMay 26, 2015The gifts are $. The tour was nice - we get to see how the weather report is done. Tour guide was funny but sometimes felt like it was scripted. Well, of coz it would be - it's a news tour.
Joe KapraszewskiSeptember 14, 2014Literally a mall in the ATL. Great place to get anything you need while you're downtown for tourists and locals!
Lots to do here. Coming when there's big news and events going on in town, and you'll certainly see a newscast / spot in and around the food court!
Allison KasicSeptember 13, 2016Do the tour on a weekday. Place is empty on weekends so there isn't much on air stuff to see.
Virgilio Rodriguez MoyaFebruary 22, 2017Been here yearly, very busy all time because y very close to GWCC, good restaurants chain inside.
Andrew CSeptember 19, 2017Cool to just walk thru the lobby, cafe area, stores, and people watch... probably fun for the tour - but probably expensive and lengthy!!?
Jasen MalaveDecember 2, 2013Tour was awesome. Lindsay was a great tour guide. Quick funny and to the point. Definitely a to do in ATL.
Always stop here before a gate at Phillips. The beer and food are half as much as inside the arena.
Amelie W.August 9, 2012The CNN tour was the biggest waste of time and money, didn't see or learn anything of interest. Best part was the elevator ride at the beginning.- Anjali MirchandaniJuly 11, 2018Tour the CNN to get a glimpse of behind the scene action. Here, you will get the most amazing souvenir - a recording of you reading the news as a news anchor!
Social News NetworkApril 10, 2013You'd be surprised how many successful projects CNN has launched! It's a great place for adults and children to visit!
Colin LordJuly 11, 2016You wouldn't know it unless you went inside, but they have a great food court.
There's a secret cafeteria for CNN employees — super helpful on days the Center Atrium is packed with tourists.
Serhii LutskoMay 15, 2017Interesting center but the tour was a bit dissatisfying, I hoped we could see more live shows.
Amy FinegoldNovember 11, 2014I had a great time speaking in front of the play TelePrompter and enjoying the tour of the studios.
Patty Sue LinkDecember 3, 2011Make sure to note the longest free-standing escalator in the world! Very cool :)- A RDecember 5, 2014Take the VIP tour. More time in the control and newsrooms, plus an included photo.
Chick-fil-A LeadercastJanuary 25, 2012Find Chick-fil-A's speaker Soledad O'Brien here anchoring the show Starting Point. The Harvard grad has paved the way for covering natural disasters, and has an Emmy to show for it.
Whether you're on the official CNN tour or just happen to gain special access, come by the National Desk and wave hello to the best Newsgathering operation in the business.
carla haightAugust 28, 2014Be sure to use Marta when coming into town with multiple events going on.
Travel + LeisureMay 29, 2012On the behind-the-scenes studio tour, you can test the teleprompter or act out the part of a weatherman in front of a green screen. Read more
David EldridgeJuly 21, 2012Reserve your ticket time in advance if possible, combination vouchers give admittance but still have to be exchanged for a certain time.
Shelby GrrlJanuary 2, 2012The CNN tour is free for active duty military members, which saved me $15.
Greg RieglerSeptember 8, 2010Starbucks located in Food Court. Cool building, must visit, next to Olympic Park, Aquarium, and Coca-Cola!
Mike BarkerAugust 31, 2014I remember being here for the Summer Olympics in 1996. Good place to get out of heat.
Kayla HoustonJune 11, 2013Buy the combo passes. Totally worth it and motivates you to see all Atlanta has to offer.
ChevroletSeptember 21, 2010The world headquarters of CNN. Offers a 55-minute guided walking tour with exclusive studio views and an exciting glimpse of news and broadcasting in action.
Watch CNN on a big-screen TV in the atrium with a bunch of other homeless people while sipping coffee. The homeless people watching isn't bad either.
ScoutmobNovember 28, 2011The CNN Center was previously occupied by the indoor amusement park called 'The World of Sid and Marty Krofft. That'd would be a fun tourist attraction, aye?
Robert NebelApril 7, 2010Take the CNN Tour, visit the nearby World of Coke and the aquarium,stroll Centennial Park and then get yourself over to Midtown or Virginia Highland for great eats.
Melissa BosticFebruary 6, 2013Really awesome place to visit! It's huge and there is a MOE's here! :)
Find your home town on the giant world map on the floor. The names represent CNN bureaus around the world.
Gov. Gary JohnsonJuly 17, 2012Some of the amazing Gary Johnson supporters who protested CNN's lack of coverage of third-party candidates.

"One stop shop w/ Chick-fil-A, Moe's, Great Wraps, Wendy's & lots more. No matter what you're craving, you will find it! I love Salad Sensations' great toppings (but order dressing on the side). -AF"

"If it not supposed to rain when you need to park, this lot is better than the Philips Arena parking that is next door... plus is usually $10 cheaper!"
