The last of the 13 original colonies offers historical getaways to its cities such as Savannah and Atlanta; mountain explorations in the North Georgia Mountains, the base of the Appalachians; and extremely beautiful islands along its touch of coastline above Florida.
Georgia’s mild winters give way to long springs, hot summers and long falls, making this an evergreen destination for families. It has mountains, lakes, beaches, small towns and sprawling cities. Southern charm is in full force here, from the cobblestone streets of Savannah to the rich history of Atlanta. Get ready for beautiful architecture and surprise beaches on your trip to Georgia.
You’ll need a car to get around this large state, including when in Atlanta, notoriously known for poor public transportation and traffic. The MARTA train from the airport can easily get you into the heart of the city.
