CNN Greece Reviews

We were on a 4:40pm tour. The 50min tour was not worth of $16. Not too much to see. Was disappointed!

Worth to visit.... Enjoy it very much... You can drink and eat and place to sit inside and also gift shops...
I never thought I will like to see it but really worth it...

I wonder if they show you the fake news they show all the time???

This was my 1st trip to Atlanta from the UK so the CNN building was on my list of places to go in the city. We decided we wasn't going to do the tour as time was short and we had other plans. We still really enjoyed ourselves just being there. The building is huge and seems like there is so much to do. The tour cost was $16.30 which is really good for what you could see. We went into the Cartoon Network store as my daughter loves it. I brought a few things for her as gifts. The staff were very helpful and the building busy. The next time I'm in Atlanta we will definitely be doing the tour.

A very informative and interesting tour of CNN. The guide really knows a lot about the channel. You will be told how the company collects information and decides which part goes on the air, it is possible to see the action live. When traveling inside a building under a glass roof, you feel very unusual, as if several business centers were covered with a dome, but by the way it is, see for yourself

Visit learn lot show pictures of how it works I've watch on television just scanning through channels but real interest in this channel now

Daughter had fun got to show my aunt's from Cali around had a ball!

Most one-sided biased news station on the planet. Only representing what's positive for their party and nothing else. Nothing to do with real journalism just what fits in their agenda

I was looking forward to this tour, however at the end of it I wasn t left so pleased. I thought the tour was kind of short and we didn t really get to see the important good stuff on the tour. It was pretty basic and not worth it at all in my opinion. Having said that, it has good food places in the food court.

It is very interesting to take a look behind the scenes, but I found the lead to be rather thin at times. There are about 15 stations that you walk and sometimes you stand there for less than 1min, but you have to walk there for 3min.
But you can definitely join in, especially if you have the CityPass. The building itself is extremely impressive. You are not allowed to take photos during the tour.

The tour is very interesting. I just wish we could've met Ted Turner. . There are lots of steps coming down to lower floors so if that is a challenge, make other arrangements when you book your tour. There's a nice food court and great security throughout the building.

Impressive tour if you have an interest in how news broadcast works. Nothing much for kids. You can take photographs only at first 2 locations. Dirty washrooms. Limited food options. You can't carry food or drinks on the tour. It is about 50 min tour.

BROUGHT ALL THE EFFORTS, SKILLS,TECHNOLOGY. AND INTELLIGENCE OF TV. NEWS PRODUCTION INTO FOCUS. SIMPLY PUT UNBELIEVABLE !!!

WONDERFUL PLACE...
18 ELECTRIC STAIRCASE FLOOR ...
HOW WE DO THE CNN NEWS ...
GOOD WELCOME...

Very neat to see the CNN process in action, and we had a great and enthusiastic tour guide to make the experience that much better. The escalator to the top of the globe(the world's longest freestanding escalator) is absolutely terrifying, you can feel it shake below your feet multiple times on the way up, and if you fall down it you are pretty much dead. So hold on.

this is a great place to visit, it it was also very interesting. it is also cheaper with the Atlanta city pass, as it is a little expensive.

Very interesting tour. Learned a lot about how CNN is functioning from the inside.

Different experience but nothing really exciting. But you will follow by many security guards.

BREAKING: Wolf Blitzer thinks he can cut in line at the Starbucks.

Nice to see how the TV programs work behind the scenes.

It's not that great... Perhaps if you know knowing about camera, or if you love CNN.

It was neat. Wish there was more to see its a busy place. I would recommend going.

GREAT way to get a peek behind the scenes of a world wide media industry. Interesting to seeing how history is reported.

Affordable attraction to take the family to. This is a guided tour throughout the television world of CNN. You go up a huge escalator to start and once the tour starts after every stop you have to walk down stairs so be prepared for that. It's an interesting tour of you're into how the news casters and meteorologists work and how they get their information.

One the best thing to see in Atlanta downtown. It is a very detailed tour in the studio. They explain everything.

Enjoyed the VIP tour, but what's up with all the security? I've never seen so much security in my life! I thought CNN was supposed to be anti-gun?

pretty average experience from the VIP tour, was definitely expecting more. interesting to see though.

The facilities are modern, but in dealing with the children of the tour guide I would not give my a star, what do I say or the point of a star.
It would seem that the tours are free.

Great place ! Enjoyed the tour, experienced the way they go live on news. Pretty interesting to watch how they show weather forecast. Food overpriced.

There was something amazing to be able to see it actually broadcast, but other than that, it was just that. A little bored.

Not much to see, they could make it more interesting

Amazing building with great scope, tours are a little pricey for us but not too unreasonably so.

I had my two teenage daughters with me and we all enjoyed this tour. Dont know if young kids would enjoy it so much. But it was very interesting.

Nice place to learn about media
Only if the staff could have been a bit nicer

Good:
- The building is really cool, the atrium is humongous and picturesque.

Bad:
- The tour was very meh, there were about 40 people and we had to go to a bunch of different rooms to explore different aspects of CNN. The problem was, there was only a couple minutes of content at each place, so the vast majority of the time of the "50 minute walking tour" is just getting up and herding 40 people to different rooms. I didn't really feel like I learned much on the tour, but seeing the rooms where people worked was kinda cool.
- No building wide wifi, this is kinda a small gripe, but it should really become the norm now. I had to connect to Starbucks or Dunkin and those networks were overloaded by the hundreds of other people connected to it. Definitely a minor nit though.

It was awesome love the cartoon Network store inside

Great food court. Very large building. I never been on the studio tour before but it seems pretty nice.

Though the food court was good, the Studio Tours are a complete RIP-OFF!!!!! The guide SUCKED, he talked way too fast for anyone to hear. The Coca-Cola World is a much better option, and is much more enjoyable for the whole family. Moreover, CNN is NOT a place for kids. Many of the kids and teenagers were whining, and none of the adults looked very interested. I'd even go as far as calling it a scam.

Pretty superficial---you won't learn much about how things work at CNN here, which seems fitting.

To be clear, this is a review of the tour itself, not of the food court or surroundings. The tour begins with a ride up the longest freestanding escalator, which was enough to excite our son. Our tour guide was energetic, enthusiastic, and full of interesting information about the inner workings of a major news agency. There were numerous opportunities to stop and see the studios, research desks, and other production areas which were fascinating. If you're a fan of news reporting, it's a very interesting tour and worth the cost.

Very respectable and enlightened tour. The tour guides rocks!

Good tour experience. Large food court. Good atmosphere.

Really cool. Our guide was sweet and knowledgeable

I loved CNN, It has a phenomenal infrastructure, the food fair inside it is very varied, it is the only place around it so

The tour is overpriced for what it is. Nothing worthwhile is shown really

Great tour with interesting things to see inside. You start by going up to the top in a long escalator. Tour guide was very nice and knowledgeable. Too bad there were not any live broadcasts to see. It comes with the Atlanta Citypass, which is a great deal.

If you have city pass it worths. Overall it s below average tour. Security guards needs to change their attitude to the visitor. You pay money to have fun and learn new things about media but they act like a boss there and make you feel bad.

The staff was kind and helpful to my disabled uncle. It's nothing spectacular but I enjoyed myself

I love the food and it was great just hanging out with my friends their but they should get more seats.

Great tour. Even better when breaking news is happening and you feel like you are in on it. Would recommend anyone who likes news to check this place out.

It was awesome to see behind the scenes of the news agency and how everything works. The only thing I didn't enjoy about it were some of the people not following the rules about the use of cell phones during the tour, but that can't really be helped. I really recommend this to anyone who has any sort of interest.

Place full of history and new tech. This is a must when visiting Atlanta, GA

Something interesting to do if you need to kill an hour indoors because of rain. You don't learn anything that someone with a basic interest on TV wouldn't already know. Group size is on the large side (40ish), so you don't always get a good view. Our tour guide Blake was funny, which was a bonus.

Tour is 50 minutes long and tells a little about CNN's history and shows the behind the scenes of the channel. It also has the largest escalator in the world! It is possible to buy tickets through the website, already with the time that it will start. I recommend it, especially if you are making a long connection in Atlanta.

Expencive. To walk around the building for 40 minutes they take about 20$.

A nice experience to know what were behind news programs. The bad was the expensive photo price. 40 USD? OMG

Interesting tour. I recommend going during the week.
