Description

Jane’s Walk is an annual global festival of free, volunteer-led walks designed to generate conversation about the city and celebrate its vibrant past, present, and future. The festival honors Jane Jacobs, who was an urban activist, author, and believer in the power of citizens to make a difference in their city.
 

Guided Tour of the Atlanta BeltLine's Up-and-Coming Neighborhoods

The Atlanta BeltLine is completely reinventing Atlanta, and on this tour you’ll learn how! Join Nicole Gustin, Founder & CEO of BiteLines Food and Art Tours, through up-and-coming areas in the Old Fourth Ward, Cabbagetown, and Reynoldstown neighborhoods, where you’ll learn about the BeltLine project and see the transformation happening right before your eyes.

On this tour, you will:

  • Explore and interact with Art on the Atlanta BeltLine, the largest outdoor art exhibit in the Southeast. You'll uncover the secrets behind the art and learn about the talented artists who created them, including ties to Hollywood.
  • Search for the elusive Tiny Doors (there are 3 of them on our route), and get your cameras ready as we come across countless vibrant murals that make up the Forward Warriors project.
  • Explore Reynoldstown, founded by freed slaves, and Cabbagetown, a milltown with a rich past. Learn about the BeltLine project and its future plans.

You’ll witness the explosion of development happening in the area. We'll even give you some recommendations for restaurants to come back to later!

After the tour, everyone is invited to join us at Brewdog , a brewpub on the BeltLine.

Participation is free!

About Your Tour Leader

Nicole Gustin grew up in metro Atlanta, then lived in the Boston area for many years. When she returned to Atlanta, the BeltLine was just being built, and she saw the energy it was creating in this city she loves.

She launched BiteLines Atlanta Food Tours to give tourists and locals an authentic experience of the BeltLine, its restaurants and street art. She has since given BeltLine tours to hundreds of people. In 2023, BiteLines began offering "Barks and Bites,” a one-of-a-kind restaurant crawl for dogs.
