Day Trip

DAY TRIP – Atlanta Braves Game

Daniel’s Discovery Tours will take you out to the ballgame to watch our Atlanta Braves take on the St. Louis Cardinals during this AFTERNOON GAME!  Our motorcoach will drop our group near the entrance gate at Atlanta’s Truist Park so you can visit the Battery – a destination that simultaneously builds and integrates a state-of-the-art Major League Baseball ballpark with a multi-use development and community. It is the perfect marriage of classic ballpark feel, modern amenities and southern hospitality, which creates a fan experience unlike any other. An intimate setting of 41,000 seats inside the ballpark is designed to maximize sightlines, making every seat feel like the “best in the house.”  Visit the 5,000 square ft. Clubhouse Store offering the largest selection of Official Atlanta Braves merchandise.  Enjoy the action on the field from our covered seating in the Terrace Infield – located in the same area as many great food vendors so you can grab lunch on your own while cheering on the Home Team!  Get on the bus with us for this fun day trip, it is the way to go!

The price of the Day Trip includes roundtrip motorcoach transportation from the Daniel’s Depot in Lula, GA and Terrace Infield seating at the game.  Day Trips are non-refundable.

DAY TRIP Gone with the Wind

Our travels take us south as we embark on a journey to discover the foundation of the story and the author of the great novel and move, “‘Gone with the Wind”.  Margaret Mitchell, Peggy Marsh to her friends, dubbed her apartment, “The Dump”.  Surprisingly, it is in the shabby little apartment in Atlanta on the bottom floor that this petite, yet mighty woman wrote “Gone with the Wind”.  A Pulitzer Prize followed.  Fame, fortune, and fans, too.  Quite the character, she had opinions about how the film portrayed her book and she didn’t much like the attention, but she still responded to every single fan letter.  Visit her home in Atlanta where the book was written and learn about Peggy before, during, and after the book, about the movie, and about the film’s premiere in Atlanta. The Road to Tara Museum in Jonesboro, Georgia offers a fascinating look into the famous book, the writer, the era, and the ties to Jonesboro. Explore the exhibits featuring items from the 1939 movie premiere in Atlanta, personal items belonging to Margaret Mitchell, rotating poster gallery, original costume pieces, and international book collection.  Visit Stately Oaks Plantation, a plain Greek Revival antebellum home constructed in 1839.  The grounds are home to the main house, country store, one-room schoolhouse, cook house, and much more.  Jonesboro is the very city where Scarlett had to pay the taxes on Tara.  Even though Tara only existed in Margaret Mitchell’s imagination, she placed Tara in Clayton County where she had visited relatives who lived on a large plantation south of Jonesboro.  Many of the stories she heard as a child are in the movie.  Many believe Stately Oaks was the inspiration for Tara.  Explore the home and grounds and enjoy an included lunch in the Bethel One-Room Schoolhouse.

The price of the Day Trip includes roundtrip motorcoach transportation from the Daniel’s Depot in Lula, GA, entrance to all venues listed and lunch.  Day Trips are non-refundable.
