An Atlanta vacation shouldn't break your budget. Cutting costs is possible, beginning with airline tickets. Airfare is the first place you can look to save money. Inexpensive flights to Atlanta are readily available for those who know where to look. The best place to look for these is on the Internet, where you'll find travel sites dedicated to getting their clients the best rates on vacation packages that include flights, hotels and rental cars. Once you've got your transportation and accommodation taken care of, continue your Internet search in order to find discounted fares for plenty of Atlanta's attractions, as well as those that are already free or very affordable. Once again, the Internet is the best source for information on these types of attractions, including Centennial Olympic Park, Castleberry Hill, Piedmont Park and the Sweet Auburn District. Another way to save money on your trip is to purchase something like Atlanta CityPass, which guarantees less expensive tickets for Atlanta's top tourist sites. Eating out is another place where it's easy to spend too much money. However, several of Atlanta's restaurants, including Atlanta Fish Market in Buckhead, Ecco in Midtown and Ray's in the City in Downtown, offer excellent food prices at certain times.

Green Atlanta vacations

When traveling, we can't forget Mother Earth and the impact that our travel has on her. Airplanes have high carbon emissions, but thankfully there are resources available to lessen the footprint left by these carbon emissions by contributing to programs that plant indigenous trees in designated areas. These programs offset carbon emissions by planting native trees on protected lands. Also, these same websites often contain information about green hotels in Atlanta and other places. In addition, travel websites often offer directories of hotels that are environmentally friendly. You can book a travel bundle that includes a green hotel, affordable plane tickets (with carbon offset, of course), and a hybrid rental car. As a bonus, since your reservations are all online, there are a few more trees out that won't become paper.

Atlanta's best sites

Atlanta has so many things for tourists to do, from athletics events and fun parks to galleries and historic monuments. First of all, the CNN Tower is a fantastic choice for anyone who wants a glimpse of how news is gathered; second, tourists will love visiting Centennial Olympic Park, which was the center of the 1996 Summer Olympics and still has the planet's most massive Olympic ring fountain; and finally, the whole family will love visiting Stone Mountain Park, which boasts the globe's most giant example of exposed granite, as well as shops, rides and other things for everyone to enjoy. Work some culture into your vacation by getting tickets to the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, the Atlanta Opera, and the Atlanta Ballet. For the outdoors enthusiast, Piedmont Park and the Atlanta Botanical Gardens feature picnic spots and walking and skating trails through the lush woods around lovely Lake Clara Meer. To get a bit of Atlanta's history as well as some fun and entertainment, visit Underground Atlanta, which has eateries, stores and nightclubs as well as guided walking tours.

Getting around in Atlanta

Renting a car during your Atlanta vacation is offers the most flexibility for your trip as far as being able to travel in and around the city. Booking a rental car as part of a travel bundles that includes airfare and accommodation as well is a great way to save money on all three pieces of your trip. If renting a car isn't something that fits in your travel plans, Atlanta has ample transportation; the city's major public transportation option is MARTA, which is a bus/rail service that is quite inexpensive and offers access to nearly all areas of the city, including major tourist attractions and other hot spots. MARTA even has service to and from Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson Airport. Taking a cab is certainly more expensive than riding MARTA, but taxis can be nice for the flexibility they offer. For transportation that includes an education as well, consider booking a tour service. Tour guides have a wealth of information about Atlanta's top sites. In addition, you get to meet other visitors and might even make some new friends.
