Q&A
A: There's no strict age limit! Kids are welcome, but I’d say it’s best for ages 12 and up since the topics discussed can be pretty heavy. The grandsons of Dr. Reese do a great job of making it engaging for younger audiences though. Just be ready for some deep conversations!
A: The tour is mostly outdoors, so I’d recommend comfy shoes and casual clothes. Check the weather before you go since it can get hot in Atlanta. Layers are your friend too, especially in the fall! You want to be comfortable while walking and listening.
A: Rescheduling is totally possible! Just reach out to Alan or Marvin through their contact info on the tour site at least 48 hours in advance. They’re pretty flexible and understanding. Just make sure to confirm the new date as soon as possible!

Just booked the Selma in Atlanta Tour for my parents!
I'm really excited! I heard the guide is one of Dr. F.D. Reese's grandsons. It’s a free tour, which is amazing! My parents are super into history, especially civil rights. Can’t wait to hear the personal stories they share! I hope the weather holds up since it's outdoors.
I just did the Selma in Atlanta Tour! Here’s my experience.
Wow, it was so moving! Alan and Marvin really brought the stories to life. Seeing the artifacts from the 1960s was surreal. I almost cried hearing their stories about Dr. Reese's friendship with MLK. If you’re thinking about it, just go! Light refreshments were a nice touch too.
