I vote, don't miss a walk on the Atlanta Beltline.
The beltline seems to be the best bet for your buck for overall vibes.
Easiest way around is by Uber.
If you have a car, just plan to park a few blocks away & don't stress about a perfect spot right in the thick of it.
Most of my guidebook is eating, hoods and spots you may otherwise not know about. Of course all the big regular tourist attractions are plenty cool too (Aquarium, Coca Cola, Stone Mountain, etc).
If you are up for a real adventure, I enjoy hiking in North Georgia on the weekends & happy to chat with you about some fantastic day hikes within about 90 miles.
