When to visit based on price
Your best shot at low volume of vacationers and better rates is to plan your trip between January and April. These are the least visited months, and although quite cooler than the rest of the year, still a nice time of year in Atlanta. Be aware that the winter holidays can get busy, and prices can be higher.Key Attractions
A fun thing to do, and wise during winter months is a visit to Atlanta’s Georgia Aquarium, the worlds largest. You’re sure to warm up while walking through this aquariums enclosed glass tunnel, with sharks swimming only inches away. This fantastic attraction is host to over sixty exhibits, so plan a day, and enjoy.Another fun adventure all year long in Atlanta is the Atlanta Zoo, where you get to enjoy the experience of well over 1000 animals, including a world class Gorilla adventure. Washington, DC isn’t the only place to view Giant Panda’s, because they live here too. Experience these precious animals in an environment as close as native as possible. These giant “teddy bear’s” look like cuddly pets, but in fact are anything but.
Having Fun
You’re in theDeep South, so why not experience the history with a visit to the Atlanta Civil, War Museum. From the moment that you stroll into the museum, and your eyes take in the massive painting depicting the war in Atlanta, you’ll know your in for an experience. Experience some of the most interesting artifacts of the war, and learn Atlanta’s part in it.Another great experience weather dependent is Atlanta’s Botanical Gardens. If your traveling with younger children, they may not get this experience, but Mom surly will.
Who doesn’t enjoy a day at an amusement park? Atlanta has one of the most exciting days ahead for you at Six Flags over Georgia, so why not spend a day holding your breath?

Another excellent shopping experience is the more than fifty stores in Atlantic Station. You could probably spend a day here shopping and dining, with fine pubs, and even an ice-skating rink in winter months.
Nearby
If traveling with small children, a visit to BabyLand General Hospital might just be the ticket. This is the home of the Cabbage Patch Kids and amazingly, is free to visit. Your youngsters can still adopt a Cabbage Patch Baby, from infants to older with hair. This isn’t a five-minute stop as most visitors will spend 2-3 hours. Also may provide Dad with an opportunity to catch up on emails.If the weather is being good to you, why not cool off with water slide or ten at Lake Lanier Beach and Water Park.
