Pros
Savannah was truly perfect. Knowledgeable, responsive, caring, informative, and honest. I didn’t feel like I was apart of a sales scheme. She truly put me at ease during the process. I felt like she had my back and would work to find me what I was looking for. I look forward to working with American Traveler in the future.

Atlanta, GA
About
A true Southern gem, Atlanta, Georgia, is a city rooted in the past but leading the way into the future. Atlanta is known for its beautiful skyline and many attractions, including the Georgia Aquarium, the World of Coca Cola and the CNN Center. Local restaurants like The Varsity and Mary Mac’s Tea Room showcase the city’s rich Southern cuisine, and visitors quickly notice that almost every street downtown has “peach” in the name. The cost of living is much lower than in many similar cities in the more crowded Northeast, but the quality of life is as good or better. Atlanta is also home to the world’s busiest airport, Hartsfield-Jackson International, making air travel a breeze, and Atlantic Station, a great place to shop til you drop. There's literally something for everyone from historic homes and museums to sports teams like the Braves, Hawks, Falcons, Dream and United FC.
