ATLANTA TRAVELERS INFO.
Best
Times to Visit
Spring and fall are ideal times to visit
Atlanta. The weather is mild in the spring
and the blooming flowers are beautiful that
time of year. Fall is bustling, as many of
the area colleges are welcoming their
students after a long break.
Atlantas Climate
Atlanta's weather is mild for much of the
year, although July and August tend to be
hot and humid. Occasionally, Atlanta sees
some snow during December and January, but
never enough to warrant chains on the tires.
Transportation
MARTA, (Atlantas rail system) is a reliable
and inexpensive way to get around town. Try
the bus if you need to reach parts of town
not served by the rail system. Those trying to hail a cab
on the street may find themselves
standing for a while. It's best to order the
cab by phone. And, driving in Atlanta can be
a nightmare. The traffic is congested and
the streets can be confusing to tourists.

than another. For the most part, prices
remain steady. Not among the U.S's pricies
towns, Atlanta nevertheless has some bigcity
characteristics, which can come with a hefty
price tag. For instance, downtown hotels may
be pricier than those on the outskirts and
in Midtown. Downtown restaurants can be
pricier, depending on where you stay and
what you do while visiting. Take in a
baseball game. You can get good tickets at
reasonable prices.
