Atlanta can wear the kids out. We mean that as a compliment. There are enough family experiences here to build an entire vacation without spending every afternoon walking through another attraction where somebody eventually asks, “Are we done yet?” Yes, Atlanta has the major names. The aquarium. The zoo. Six Flags. Museums and attractions families travel from across the country to experience. But BlkTravel wants to go further than the obvious.

Take the family skating at Cascade and experience a piece of Black Atlanta culture while you're having fun. Get competitive at Puttshack. Race at Andretti. Find interactive games, outdoor adventures, entertainment centers and experiences that work just as well for the teenager who thinks they're too old for family vacation as they do for younger kids. Some of these places will also appear in Date Night or Sports & Games, and that's intentional.

Puttshack with the kids on Saturday afternoon is one experience. Puttshack with your date and cocktails Saturday night is another. We're interested in both. This guide is for parents, grandparents, cousins, blended families, multigenerational trips and everybody who has ever tried to keep a group of children entertained in a city they don't know. Some picks are educational. Some are cultural. Some are Atlanta institutions. And some exist for the perfectly legitimate purpose of letting everybody go play.
