The Experience
Before You Go
Plan for traffic
Start in the morning when Atlanta streets are quieter to reduce drive time between locations.
Wear comfortable shoes
Most stops require short urban walks on uneven sidewalks—supportive footwear makes quick turnarounds easier.
Respect private property
Many filming locations are on or adjacent to private land—follow your guide and signage; don’t trespass.
Bring ID and a charged phone
Guides will contact you before the tour and pickup options require confirmation; phones also double as cameras.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Senoia downtown (nearby town used for multiple show locations)
- •A quiet brick warehouse alley often used for chase sequences—best viewed from the van for privacy
Wildlife
- •Urban raccoons
- •Songbirds and occasional hawks over older industrial zones
Conservation Note
Tours emphasize staying on public property and respecting private homes; supporting local businesses helps the communities that host filming sites.
The Walking Dead relied heavily on metro Atlanta and nearby towns after Georgia’s early 2000s tax incentives turned the region into a major film production hub.
