CNN Greece Reviews

I like the food court to eat there, watching CNN News

Diferent, I think other think, the cost is cheap, try maybe do you like....

Getting through their security was slow and tedious. They should get scanners for bags like the airport has. The tour is only an hour and you really can't photograph anything. Not really sure it's worth it, unless you've never been backstage at a studio before.

Great food court, with a nice feel. Rick Sanchez is there. Go get a photo with him.

It is really just "behind" the scene. Never get close to one studio.

This tour was somewhat boring. No interactive exhibits. One follows a tour guide around and listens to a ho hum monologue describing how many households receive the network.
Not worth the price of admission.

Great tour for the family. It s a lot of walking up and down stairs, so be prepared. You also can t take pictures after a certain point.

I was absolutely not impressed. The tour didn't start on time and it was harder getting through their security then it was at the airport, which for anyone experienced with airport travel, knows it's not easy. The tour doesn't have a whole lot to offer and it definitely felt like we did more walking and waiting then we did learning interesting things and seeing anything fascinating. I had higher expectations. Plus the ticket for the tour had a $2 off coupon for a restaurant that expired in 2016, and it's almost 2018. Fake promotions, too, apparently. They definitely aren't on top of it and it all just seems like a ploy to make money.

Interesting tour. Would have liked to have seen more of the studios currently used, but still a good tour.

Well run tours that give a good look at this news organization, but is MUCH better if booked as the VIP tour. The other is a bit sparse.

A right of passage for any Atlanta tourist. Some guides are better than others.

Theirs a huge McDonald's Towing scam going on in Detroit,MI "Midtown" area with a predator Tow Company by the name "Break Thru Towing" that's drawing big Media Attention including a suspension from AAA & Also the B.B.B. was on site investigating and local news agencies like channel 7
Lots of McDonald's customers say they've been scammed
Class Action Lawsuit recently filed this week !!
Google it or go on YouTube it's on their !!
This Towing company racked up so much money like "fish being thrown in a barrel"
Youtube Detroit McDonald's Tow scam !
Someone caught them in their trap !
They been doing this for years and people finally stood up!
CNN please investigate!!

I expected more from the tour. Very weak and not instructive. The concern for safety and not taking pictures was greater than the quality of the tour.

Very nice look inside the processes at CNN. Recommend the city pass.

Not bad. You get the background. The Guides are really good.

It is not necessary to enter the tour, just walking in the food area is enough.

Great look inside CNN. Lots of fun for the whole family.

Airport like security, which I was not expecting. Regular tour is ok, they want you to pay more for behind the scene experience which I thought should be part of regular ticket.

Very interesting all the things that go on behind the scenes

Hey what a wonderful experience visiting the cnn studio with my church family and friends

The GM happened to meet us at the Hostess Station and he was very nice and polite! The food was extremely delicious and prepared just right! I highly recommend this restaurant, McCormick and Schmidt.

A 45-50 min tour of some of the CNN headquarters. They take you through a path and you get to see into various studios. It would be good for those who know nothing about how the news is made. It is a cool thing to see once, I don't think I need to go again. Overall I went with a city pass and it was worthwhile.

The tour staff is incredible, but the content you get just isn't enough for the price you pay.

You see mostly replicas of the actual newsrooms- anyone can imagine what a replica newsroom looks like. You get to watch a little video, look in from above on ONE actual CNN room, see some model newsrooms, and peer through some windows to get basically the same view as you have from standing in the cafeteria for free. For over fifteen dollars, the tour is underwhelming.

But, as I said, the tour staff are angels. And you get to ride the giant escalator- supposedly the longest freestanding escalator in the world, ascending 8 stories. So that's something.

Really fun experience that would be great for anyone of any age to tour. My reason for four stars is because of the restrictions on photo taking on the tour. As a journalism major who understands a few things about a newsroom, I didn t see anything so secret that guests can t share with their friends. Otherwise, it is a great activity if you have an extra hour or two in Atlanta.

Impressive place, they explain how they generate the news, they have a spectacular infrastructure. There are places to have lunch, very nice place

I LOVE CNN!!! Great place for anyone who cares about whats going on in the World.

The security in the place is bad. I did not have a positive experience

Definitely interesting to see how it works behind the scenes

Went on field trip with one of my children for the group tour. Though I don't care for the network itself, the tour was fairly informative and interesting. Definitely very basic information and great for the age group (5th). Would think you would want a more in depth tour for older kids who may be interested in a career in that field.

Interesting, we can enjoy with CNN show and learn some more about history

Great tours attraction if you want to know more about the origin of CNN. Cheap price!

Loved the tour! I wished it could have been more interactive and we could get to see one of the anchors. My daughter's dream come true as she wants to be a Meteorologist.

Not as exciting as it used to be, but still neat for kids.

Pretty informative. Can get crowded. Very strict about the no phone policy, I saw someone being asked to leave.

Take the tour. Fascinating to watch how the news is brought to you. Our guide, Molly, was very knowledgeable and handled a range of questions well.

This tour was really nice, our tour guy was full of energy and did a great job explaining everything!

If you haven t experience this, I highly recommend doing it at least once.

It was an interesting tour, i would recommend going if you're in town.

Nice place whoever interested to know facts on news channel

It is a pretty good tour and something I would recommend when visiting Atlanta.

Behind the scenes tour of CNN news. Exciting and fascinating. Highly recommended.

Tour was fun. I went as part of the city pass and I really enjoyed it.

Not worth paying for on it's own
The staff was nice ,only do this if you have a city pass. If you don't know what a city pass is looking up saves you over 50 dollars. Impressive view but the tour was short. I expected more.

Informative, Great place to Pre-game a game at Phillips

Chandler was our tour guide, she has been there for only a few months and is probably more knowledgeable than most people there. The reason for the 4 star is because the tour is not very detailed or in depth. You just walk by a series of Windows and listen to their description of what's in the room. I've done other tv station tours and this was lackluster.. oh, and to get the photos, it's 35$, not worth it. Lastly, the biggest turnoff was the security guy making Taliban jokes and telling a lady he wants nothing to do with witch craft.. yes you read that right. It was absolutely out of line.

We came into the cnn center to eat. Plenty of eating here

I went on the 5 P.M. tour. It was a just bad timing. Didn't get to see any live recordings or anything. The 50 min tour wan't worth the $16. You can just see their sets behind a glass. Security is so tight (X-rays, etc) and a bunch of guards follow you throughout the tour, it's kinda annoying but I don't complain because it's a necessity for them to protect CNN.
Ground floor lobby was great for having food. It has a bunch of well known fast food chains. If you're visiting the Aquarium, Coca Cola and CNN together, CNN is the best place to have lunch.
There's a parking in front of the CNN building which will cost you $10 for the whole day (no hourly parking).
Their CNN building is cool tho, with the 8 floor escalator.

It's an interesting tour, but a little pricey for what you see.

Whole lot of choices to pick from food wise, beautiful big place

We had his ticket in our city pass book but didn't use it. We felt the amount of wait time wasn't worth the tour. We watched it online and just decided to drop it. I think this stop should be replaced in the city pass.

Nice place, worth a visit if you are around Atlanta. Souvenirs are expensive

From the street you can't tell that they actually have a Food Court or even some souvenir shops inside. Even the lobby is unimpressive and uninviting. Once inside you see a whole lot of fast food joints to choose from. Must be one of Atlanta's top secrets.

we took our family on the tour they have, and boy was it interesting!
longest escalator in the world? take that China! haha.
Im amazed to see how a green screen works, and was funny to see the guy dresssed in green on the screen, kids liked seing the news live and wanted to be on tv.
good times really.

Very nice place, if you are a journalist or student or you just like CNN, a visit to this place is mandatory. My only observation is that the tour should include some interaction in a studio.

Great insight into the studios of the television station. Interesting to see how everything works ... the tours could have been longer for the price ... otherwise really great!

We didn't really like it very much !!! long and uninteresting

Very entertaining tour at CNN studios.
Attention those with reduced mobility, since they cannot make the tour.

Great behind the scenes! Ride the longest escalator in North America.

It's okay. The tour isnt really that fun, but it is interesting.

I saw they are planning on adding more to the tour. It was nice overall but I expected a little more especially being a broadcasting major. The steps was a lot especially for those with small children. Customer service attendants at the front were super sweet and accommodating.

This place is part corporate headquarters & part indoor mall. And odd mix that works.
