the fanplanners guide to atlanta

​

Every city has a guide, but ours is special. 

​

  1. We don't sell advertising or take anything in trade for our recommendations.

  2. We ask a lot of locals and well versed travelers what they think (plus our two cents).

  3. We scour reviews and sites of all kinds (because we love to save you time).
