    A memorable experience like no other! We were guided each step of the way by friendly, knowledgeable staff members. You get a better understanding of the history of Coca Cola, which is presented in an entertaining way! Definitely worth your time and money.

    An incredible place for any Coca-Cola or soda fan. The invention, the expansion, the globalization all of it is covered exceptionally in this place. The vending machines, popular coke merchandise, sports and pop culture collaborations, there’s a lot to admire. Then there’s the secret vault, where century old Coca-Cola’s secret formula is securely kept. There’s the tasting bar, where you get to try 40 different popular flavors from around the world. To top it all, it’s the Gift shop, which is accessible without entering the museum. It a has all sorts of unique and magical coco-cola merchandise. Clothes, magnets, stationary, sports items, home goods, there’s so much to explore.

    Back in 2009, I brought my niece to this enjoyable destination. It offered a multitude of interactive activities, and the highlight was sampling flavors from around the world. Exploring the facility in person was both educational and fascinating. This place is ideal for families, making learning and vacation time together truly enjoyable.

    Me and my daughter had a blast here. I didn't really know what to expect going in and was blown away. The exhibits were both fun and informative about the history of Coca Cola. It was cool to see the journey of mixing different things to find the perfect recipe and the secrecy required to make sure it didn't get stolen. Really cool stuff. Highly recommend for a day with the family. Lots of other things to tag on since it's close to other recreational spots.

    Had an Amazing experience here. From the very beginning we were guided , provided with lots of background details about the origin and its worldwide influence. The scent discovery and tasting part was a real hit. You can discover a large variety of Coca Cola flavors there. Didn’t have an idea prior to this trip that these flavors of coca cola do exist. Enjoyed every moment inside the museum. You can get a lot of souvenir options. They keep some awesome collection of lip smackers.

    I couldn’t possibly visit Atlanta without checking out the World of Coca-Cola. The staff was friendly and generally cheerful which made for a great first impression. It was quite busy during my visit so I couldn’t experience all the spaces. I would recommend to allow sufficient time and to pack your patience to make the most of all the wonderful attractions. I particularly enjoyed the 3D theater and the opportunity to taste the mind blowing variety of beverages made by the company.

    Had a wonderful time at the World of Coke! Only thing I would recommend is getting tickets in advance because it was extremely busy. Masks were required for right now. But once inside there is a vault that explains the history behind the beverage. A movie about coke and a 3D theater, a smell lab and a tasting room which was the best part! In the tasting room there were different areas to try coke from around the world! At the very end there is a gift shop. I thought this is definitely a place to check out in Atlanta, especially being the HQ for coke too.

    We had an overall okay experience at the World of Coke. There are a lot of cool pieces of the company’s history, which is cool to see. I wasn’t a fan of how long it takes to actually enter the exhibit area. You have to go through a ~10 minute tour to look at all these older pieces. You’re then taken into a theater to watch a 6-minute film about Coke and happiness. Upon entering the museum, we were under the impression it would be self-guided, but the vault exhibit had a tour along with it too. The tasting section was pretty awesome, with five fountain stations containing ~8 flavors each.

    Fun experience. Right next to the Georgia Aquarium. A very fun walking tour. It was like a museum walking tour or the history of Coca Cola. Plenty of cool stuff to see. Vintage ad signs, vending machines, signs, and so much more. Take your time and read the walls in each exhibit, the history is really interesting. The scent room was interesting. The tasting room was fun. Trying all the different Coca Cola products from around the world was very cool. They even had Mezzo Mix, which I used to drink all the time when I lived in Germany. The gift shop was amazing, so many cool things to buy. Highly recommend if you have 2+ hours to kill in downtown Atlanta.

    Extremely well done. I didn’t expect much but it was way better than I expected. The information was interesting and they try to give you lots of experiences, including smell, taste and sight (3D movie). You can even see the vault where they keep the “secret formula”. I ended up staying several hours. The gift shop is awesome. You could easily spend an hour in there alone. Go see it. You won’t regret it.

    It's good to see some of the interesting facts about the history of their products. Try to go afternoon/evening so there won't be much crowd and probably you could enjoy the Taste it! , a place where we can taste all of their products. As it's so close to the Aquarium and parking is common, it's better to plan together.

    The world of Coca-Cola offers an inexpensive family friendly excursions delving into everything coca cola. Great place to pick up Cola themed souvenirs for friends and family. Admission also grants access to the drink station where visitors will get to sample cola products from around the world. Overall its a lot of fun and will help will your schedule while in town. Makes for a great follow up activity to the Georgia Aquarium since they're right next to each other.

    World of coke was a unique experience with the tasting portion of the museum. Heads up on the beverage lab: it says you can create your own beverage and drink it, but that’s not true. It lets you design a beverage on a screen and then tells you what coke product is similar to it; it’s definitely not what it is advertised to be. Other than that, the museum was great and the Georgia aquarium is in the same courtyard. You can buy a combined ticket to go to the museum, aquarium, and zoo and some other place. Expect traffic to be heavy and arrive at least two hours before the museum closes due to it being very crowded. The staff was fun and you can take a photo with the Coke polar bear and buy it for $25. Fun place!

    We enjoyed the various exhibitions and shows here on a Saturday afternoon. It was busy but not overwhelming. The history and memorabilia were really cool. The tasting at the end was neat, but my shoes are still sticky from the floor in that room 🙃 probably not much they can do about it with all those soda fountains! It probably took us about 1.5 to 2 hours to go through it. We enjoyed our visit and would recommend it, particularly if you're going to the aquarium, as it's right next door.

    Very much a place to embrace your love of Coca-Cola. A lot of vintage advertising elements. The tasting room at the end of the exhibits offers many flavors of Coca-Cola products from around the world. It was very busy when we went, and the many children with lots of sugar and some caffeine in their systems was a bit much for me, personally. Parking w as already full by 11am, and I had to search for other options. I was able to find one, but it was a little frustrating having to search for available parking. When attending, be sure and purchase your tickets online, and you can enter at your entry time with just the QR Codes they send you as digital tickets.

    We spent 36, $18 for each of us. It was WELL worth it. All of the “super fans” tour guides were amazing. A lot of heartwarming content and they were so kind and inviting. After the toured part you get to explore by yourself, so many cool exhibits and stations. It feels very high tech! I would’ve easily paid a few dollars more. I did find the cost of the photos they take unreasonable to get printed especially since they’re not all that great. We skipped and took our own photos and I feel they came out more beautiful. We got to taste Coca Cola products from different countries, everything was so fun and family friendly.

    We had a good time. We went in May, during the week. There were a lot of kids... there might have been a few field trips? It was cool to see the history and all of the memorabilia. Love the international aspect. Be prepared to leave with a sugar high... the tasting room is fun and where you end your tour

    This visit was spur of the moment while visiting Atlanta. A full fun experience with the family. The video you watch before entering the exhibit, was very heartfelt. Great experience at the smelling stations and at the “Guess the smell” game. By far the best part was the tasting stations. You are able to sample sodas from all over the world, and from different countries, which was very fun experience. My favorite was the Philippines soda. I would recommend visiting, great for all ages young and seniors.

    Title: Disappointing Experience at World of Coca-Cola Rating: ★★☆☆☆ I recently visited the World of Coca-Cola in Atlanta, Georgia, hoping for an immersive and educational experience. However, my visit fell short of expectations due to several significant issues. Firstly, the 3D movie experience was a major letdown. Unfortunately, the 3D effects were not functioning properly during my visit, which significantly impacted the overall experience. The lack of visual depth detracted from the intended immersion, making it difficult to fully engage with the content. Furthermore, the first movie in the exhibit was also not working. This added to the disappointment, as it prevented me from fully understanding the historical context and significance of Coca-Cola. It would have been beneficial to have this foundational knowledge before delving deeper into the exhibit. Another drawback of my visit was the overwhelming crowds and lack of organization. The venue was extremely crowded, which made it challenging to navigate through the various exhibits and enjoy them at my own pace. Additionally, the lack of clear signage and directions made it even more difficult to find specific attractions or move efficiently within the facility. Considering the issues I encountered, I must say that the World of Coca-Cola did not live up to its reputation, and I found it hard to justify the price of admission. While it is undeniable that Coca-Cola has a significant impact on popular culture and history, the overall experience at the attraction fell short of my expectations. If you decide to visit, I would recommend checking the status of the 3D movie and other exhibits in advance, as well as considering the potential crowd size during your visit.

    It was a fun experience. The guides were really cheerful and the tour included a wonderful 3D video and another heart touching video. There was a scent room where we could smell the scents of sweets, spices and fruits. Many coca cola artifacts were displayed very aesthetically throughout the place. The best was the unlimited tasting of different coca cola products. I think there were around 100 flavours around the world but unfortunately it was too much for me to taste on the same day. The experience was totally worth the money and I highly recommend you to visit World of Coca Cola at least once.

    If your idea of fun is getting to try coke products that you’ve never heard of from around the world, this is the place for you. Across a shared garden with the Georgia Aquarium and the Center for Civil and Human Rights, the World of Coca-Cola presents a fun history of the world's best secret recipe (which is kept in a vault at the museum). Interactive displays, scent challenge, taste testing, nice souvenir shop and enthusiastic hosts. The World of Coca-Cola on Baker Street in Atlanta is a cool place to visit and learn about all things Coca-Cola. I really like all of the history and different items that they have on display here. The museum has a nice design and architecture. The staff here is very friendly and knowledgeable. My favorite part is being able to sample the different types of cokes from around the world. This place is fun and worth checking out.

  • 3/5 Tatiana H. 5 months ago on Google
    It’s like a Disney park, but for Coca Cola. Very well structured, they move large groups from one holding area to another. When you walk in, there is a very enthusiastic greeter, you’ll wait 15 minutes as the room fills, then move into another area to see memorabilia and listen to the very enthusiastic and funny greeter give you some history of the drink dating back to 1886, then move into a movie theater for a video of life moments and (of course) Coke. After that move into a two floor pavilion with exhibits, a 3-D film (good for kids) a tasting room and more. All exhibit spaces, theaters, etc, are accessible, with ramps and an elevator. The staff is very friendly and helpful. This morning (Monday in October) the crowd was small, and things moved right along. We can imagine that it gets very crowded during the summer/vacation times and may have longer waiting times. Photos with the polar bear and others where one can choose the background seem pricey at $25 a pop. There’s a store, but we were disappointed that they didn’t have any Tab related merchandise. Tab was our drink. We miss it and wish it would return. We did get to taste it in the tasting room, but it’s just not the same as popping open a can of Tab. Anyhow, there is parking everywhere. There is not much to see as far as shops and street life in this area.

    Good place to visit. Lot to know about coca cola but a little pricey. Couple of shows about product. Tasting room is what got me excited about. Every international flavor of its brand can be tasted here which is great. Lot of good stories on how it started and expanded.

  • 5/5 S K. 3 months ago on Google • 133 reviews New
    It was a fun experience. Lot of interesting history, you get to explore the vision of the company, exciting exhibits and it’s a best way to spend a weekend with family, friends and kids specially. The ticket price is reasonable and you get to taste more than twenty flavors from the Coca-Cola brand drinks that are enjoyed all around the world which is a pretty unique experience. Definitely visit this museum if you get to atlanta. Definitely get your tickets online beforehand.

  • 5/5 Wes W. 1 year ago on Google
    This was a fun experience. Tons of memorabilia! I recommend buying tickets in advance. We were greeted with a very enthusiastic staff and treated to a little trivia before the move. The movie is a short feel good film to get your emotions running before they tantalize all of your senses in the exhibits. The exhibits are mostly relics and information. There is some interactivity sprinkled in, but the most interactivity is in the aroma room and the fountain room. I also suggest to bring some tums with you. Tasting all the different sodas from all over the world was as bloating as it was delicious and fun. Gift shop actually had some sales.

    Pretty cool spot to see the history of Coca-Cola. You can save $1 per ticket if you purchase them ahead of time. Definitely go earlier because it will fill up pretty quickly. We were able to find street parking, but it wasn't too close. There are paid parking garages as well. When you show up they give you a little introduction and tell you that it is a self guided tour. I wouldn't say it is a self guided tour as it is more of a pick the next mini tour or activety you want to wait in line for. I definitely recommend visiting if you have never been before. The best part of the tour was the tasting room, which once you enter you can't turn back so make sure you hit all the other tours first. The gift shop was surprisingly affordable too!

    Must see place when you are in Atlanta. Not only do you learn the history of Coca-Cola, you also get to sample different coca-cola drinks available around the world. This place is great for the whole family. It is unique and interesting. There are a lot of different exhibits and it is a neat experience. The downside is, it is very crowded. We had to line up 15-20 mins to enter the vault. Parking is not free. They have a cool gift shop at the end of the tasting room. Overall, I really enjoyed visiting and would highly recommend this place to everyone, young or old.

    A bit overwhelming. We took the VIP tour which was $38. Lots of paraphernalia, photos, logos, pins, buttons bottles. . The intro movie had poor sound. The interactive pop art app did not work. The tasting of different sodas from all over the world was interesting. Ability to make your own combo drinks was fun. Testing your ability to smell different flavors was interesting too. Give yourself 2 hours at least to see everything. The polar bear was fun and the 8 min 2D show was good

  • 5/5 Emily F. 10 months ago on Google
    So this was a fun little stop during a work trip to Atlanta. I went by myself and walked from my hotel, and was able to attend a show within 10 minutes of buying my ticket. I spent about an hour to an hour and a half here. I enjoyed each section of the museum, as it held much more than I was expecting. I went on a Tuesday afternoon and there were probably 20 other people in my "group." It wasn't crowded at all and I had time to spend at each section. Of course the highlight of this is the tasting portion. It's very fun to try different sodas from around the world. The gift store is also huge, there's a lot of souvenirs to choose from. I enjoyed spending some of my free time here. The ticket was $21 and I found it to be worth it.

    This was so much fun. I wasn't sure how interested I'd be in a soda museum but I was pleasantly surprised. The exhibits are engaging, the initial tour guide was really entertaining, and the whole experience was positive as a whole. I will say that they claim to be ADA accessible and friendly for disabilities but they had no functioning wheelchair ramps or elevators - what I saw was out of service or blocked off. I'm handicapped, so navigating the museum was very difficult but worth it.

  • 4/5 Christina Van A. 2 years ago on Google
    We were able to get in very quickly as I purchased tickets online. It was a little too crowded inside to take your time to read the history behind Coca Cola. I appreciate that they required masks and constantly reminded those who may not be wearing them appropriately or who may have removed them. We wanted to get a picture with the Polar Bear but opted not too as he looked like he needed to be cleaned and brushed. That was disappointing as I was looking forward to that part the most.

    I would say for the price this is a good activity come up but I wish it had more interactive things to do. It was my second time at this Museum, and although I enjoyed myself, I did find myself getting a little bit bored. I gave it four stars because it is definitely affordable as a date experience and it is a nice updated building. The tasting station area was pretty disappointing, I seem to remember there being a lot of different options, maybe they have downsized it due to covid? Overall it's cool comma but I think they could definitely do better.

    I don’t drink a lot of soda but Coca Cola is a classic so I definitely wanted to check this out while in Atlanta. I was amazed at all of the branded paraphernalia. The interactive exhibits were fun for folks of all ages. My favorite part was the tasting room! Loved tasting beverages from all over the world…some I wish were available here in the states. A must do while visiting ATL.

  • 3/5 Sylvia C. 6 months ago on Google
    Very underwhelming for me. My kids loved it but I can see all the coke antiques in the antique stores in my home town. My husband felt left out when we tried all the coke flavors because he can't have sugar and they only had 1 or 2 sugar free coke products. The smell room didn't even smell and the line to the vault was over 2hrs of wait time. I'm just glad my kids had fun.

    Worth every penny. Had a great time. Although all the details will be available in the internet but listening to the guide about Coca-Cola is a different experience. It has two floors of exhibits where first floor has three and the second floor has four exhibits. But tasting all the drinks across different countries is the best part for me.

    This is one of Atlanta's best museum experiences!!! The experience is semi-guided, which helps direct your attention to quite a few interesting things that you might miss otherwise! It was highly engaging with interesting, fun facts and bright, eye-catching exhibits. A crowd favorite, of course, was the taste-testing room where you taste Coke products from around the world. I went when I was a kid, but I hadn't been back to the newest location. I loved it. If I have one critique, it would be that we were there on Coke's birthday, and they didn't even offer a free gift! Not a keychain, not a pen, not even a to-go can of Coke! 😆 Also, I think there were a few facts missing about the original formula, but I loved the story that we were told!

    My friends and I had a great time here! So fascinating to learn the history of Coca-Cola. We loved the interaction displays and taking a picture with the Coca-Cola bear. We loved the taste testing at the end. One of the best highlights of our Atlanta Trip! Recommend buying the City Pass if you plan to visit multiple Atlanta attractions during your stay. We saved a lot of money doing it that way.

    A cool place to visit. Fanta being one of my favorite during school/college days, it was fascinating to visit this museum to learn the history of the Coca-Cola drinks. The sweet, fruity & spicy scents, the taste of all the varieties of drinks they have introduced around the world, the vault of the secret formula and the portrait walls, it was well worth the money spent!

    My visit to the World of Coca-Cola in Atlanta was nothing short of a fizzy adventure! This iconic attraction takes you on a journey through the history and magic of the world's most famous beverage. Here's a detailed account of my experience, along with some pro tips to make the most of your day: Planning Your Visit: First things first, plan your visit in advance. Tickets can be purchased online, saving you time and ensuring you get in even during peak hours. The World of Coca-Cola is typically open daily, except for a few holidays, so check their website for the latest information. Getting There: Located in the heart of downtown Atlanta, the World of Coca-Cola is easily accessible by car or public transportation. If you're driving, there are several parking options nearby, including a dedicated parking deck. However, it can get crowded, so consider arriving early or using ride-sharing services. Ticket Options: There are different ticket options available, including general admission and a VIP experience. I recommend the general admission ticket, which provides access to all the main exhibits. The VIP ticket offers additional perks like priority entry and a guided tour. The Experience: Upon entering, you're greeted with a cheerful "Welcome to the World of Coca-Cola!" The self-guided tour begins with a short introductory film that delves into the history and global reach of Coca-Cola. It sets the stage for what's to come. The Loft: Start your journey on the top floor at the Loft, where you can taste over 100 different Coca-Cola beverages from around the world.

Milestones of Refreshment: Next, explore the Milestones of Refreshment exhibit, which showcases the brand's evolution over the decades. You'll find vintage ads, memorabilia, and even the evolution of the iconic Coca-Cola contour bottle. The Vault: One of the highlights is The Vault, a secure room that houses the secret formula for Coca-Cola. While you won't see the actual formula, the experience is filled with interactive exhibits and historical information. Bottle Works: Witness the bottling process at Bottle Works, where you can see the assembly line and even get a mini bottle of Coca-Cola as a souvenir. Taste It!: This is where you can sample Coca-Cola products from around the world. It's a fun and educational experience, and don't forget to try Beverly, an Italian bitter soda that's famous for its unique taste. Pop Culture Gallery: Explore the Pop Culture Gallery, which features Coca-Cola's impact on music, sports, and movies. It's a trip down memory lane. Coca-Cola Polar Bear: Meet the famous Coca-Cola Polar Bear for a photo opportunity. This lovable mascot adds a touch of charm to your visit. Shopping: Before you leave, visit the Coca-Cola Store for souvenirs and memorabilia. There are plenty of unique gifts to choose from. Accessibility: The World of Coca-Cola is accessible for guests with disabilities, including wheelchair-accessible exhibits and restrooms. Conclusion: In conclusion, the World of Coca-Cola is a delightful experience that combines history, culture, and fun. It's a place where you can relive your favorite Coca-Cola memories and create new ones. To make the most of your visit, arrive early to avoid crowds, take your time exploring each exhibit, and don't forget to hydrate (with Coca-Cola, of course!).

So, grab your ticket, embrace the fizz, and embark on a journey through the world of Coca-Cola. It's a taste of history, a sip of nostalgia, and a refreshing adventure all in one.

    I visited the World of Coca Cola museum when in Atlanta, which is famous worldwide. The entry fee is now $22. I went on a weekday and it was less crowded. During the tour, you can learn about the history of Coca Cola, from its inception to how they have kept the recipe a secret. They also showcase the infamous New Coke. The highlight of the tour is seeing the actual vault that keeps the secret recipe, and sampling the 50 flavors of drinks that Coca Cola produces throughout the world.

    Overall, this visit was well received. I didn't care for the guided tour portion (after the intro and short film) because there were about 30 of us in the section, and there was no room to walk around and actually look at everything before being ushered to the next section so the next group could come in. The smell portion was okay, but not overly exciting. There was another short 3D film we watched before going to the taste section where you could try Cola products from around the world. The Cola Polar Bear was there to take pictures that you can purchase after the 3D film. It was very crowded tasting drinks, but that's because it's the last exhibit before purchasing your pictures (if you choose) and the gift shop. Pro tip: Get the City Pass!! To date, it costs $89 for adults (age 13+) and $69 for kids (3-12 yrs) and I believe the processing fee is $2 per person. This allows you to go to The Coca Cola Factory, Atlanta Aquarium, Atlanta Zoo, plus 2 of 3 additional museums in the area. The best part is that you don't need a reserved time slot and can skip the line and go anytime.

    I’m not a major Coke fan, but this was still great. I loved the vintage advertising and many of the exhibits were fun and interactive. My favorite was the tasting room. It was fun to sample products from other countries. It’s not the kind of attraction I’d go to over and over again, but it gets 5 stars from me and I def recommend checking it out.

    Their history was very interesting. You will know since they began until they were well known in worldwide. You can see a polar bear and take pictures with him here. But at this time, I’m disappointed because he’s not playing with people and stood like a rock. The one I have known, he’s quite very friendly and playful.

  • 5/5 Alex L. 4 months ago on Google
    Who would’ve know the history of coke products needed a whole museum. It was jam packed of Cool info and history on our favorite drinks. Didn’t know they owned so much of what we enjoy. It’s a must do. You get to taste many different flavors from around the world..

    Definitely we had a blast. We love Coke products so coming to this place was very entertaining. I love the mix of information, history, and interactions. You have 3d movie, but also a guided explanation about the recipe, you get to use your taste and your nose too, the scents section was very interesting to experience. Definitely my favorite part was to be able to taste flavors from around the world. Some were nice, some were pretty bad, others were quite unique. It was also great to mix my own version and then be able to taste it. My only 2 negative aspects were, on one hand, that during the vault section the guide was speaking but at the same time there were recordings on the background, so it was hard to understand because both sounds would interfere. The other aspect is the fact that I was expecting to be able to try the old-school way to serve coca cola, a place like the should have it, and I wouldn't have minded to pay extra just for that. Regardless, the price was cheap given all you can do, experience and learn, so I highly recommend this place.

    It was pretty decent coming here and learning more about the company. We took our time looking at everything. I don’t usually drink soda but I did enjoy trying Coca Cola products from around the world. Admission was alright not expensive for one person. It was very crowded when we went, so it was hard to take pictures at times. We did not buy tickets in advance, didn’t have to.

    While visiting Atlanta, you must go to the Coca Cola factory. You get to see and learn the ins and outs of one of the world’s most famous soda brands. The museum has five different parts and it is broken up between two floors. My favorite part of the world of Coca-Cola was the scent section and the tasting section. In both of these sections were the most people because it is the most interactive part of the museum in my opinion. With the scent section, you are in a room with museum guide who combines different smells of different flavors for everyone to guess the scent. It was really fun how all of us was yelling out different names of fruit and spices to guess the perfect flavor. The tasting section was my ultimate favorite, because you get to taste all the different types of Coca-Cola brand sodas around the world. You’re given a cup as you walk in and you get to go around to five different stations with multiple flavors. There was one flavor that tasted just like barbecue sauce lol. If you never been to the world of Coca-Cola, I suggest you make a trip there you will enjoy it.

    A great experience with insights on the history and philosophy of the Coca Cola company. The photo opportunity with the Coca Cola polar bear was adorable. Staff is friendly and well informed, all guides are helpful and make sure that you have the best experience. Come thirsty to the tasting experience! On exiting there is a nice opportunity to buy souvenirs in the shop.

    Enjoyed the history behind Coke. Didn't like the 10 min guided tour to get started nor the vault guided tour. Would have just preferred self guided tours to visit and read on my own. Loved the coca cola exhibit. There was so many flavors of coke products to taste.

    Cool spot to check out in Atlanta! It’s located in vicinity of the Aquarium as well as Civil Rights museum. World of Coca Cola is the spot where it first started. Lots of cool artifacts to see, learn about Coca Cola history and taste the flavor from all around the world. I spent about an hour and a half at this museum and it was plenty of time to check out everything. There was line to the vault where they keep the secret— they only take 30 people at a time but it’s quick. Tour the first floor, and then make your way to the second floor where it’s got 3D theater, and smell/taste sections. I really enjoyed the tasting Coca Cola product from around the world — and the best part is, there is no limit! Gift store was cool too! Spent more time here than the exhibits… Overall, very unique experience in Atlanta. And it’s very doable to explore nearby attractions as well!

    For $100.00 for 5 people, it was mediocre. It’s a novelty experience. It reminds me of Disney were you are herded from room to room (shuffled around). We skipped the smelling room because of sanitation. Everyone is putting their nose up to the same smelling hole. Yuck. The best part, and the only reason to buy a ticket is the tasting room IMO. My son tried all 100+ sodas from around the world. That was a genuine highlight for him. I could have just fast tracked to that room and been pleased. All of the Coke memorabilia wasn’t impressive to a non-Coke enthusiast (aka: me). Drink up in the tasting room! Come thirsty.

    Incredible experience! The world of Coca Cola is a must see in Atlanta. A global company with 137 years of history that makes the foundation of Atlanta and its own history. Highly recommend it, it’s best to come earlier in the day to avoid crowds. If crowded the lines still move pretty fast

    Was not initially planning on visiting here, but when I came across The World of Coca-Cola I couldn’t help but visit. Very cool to learn about the history of Coke and see some fun short films. But my favorite part by far was getting to taste 40 different global Coca-Cola beverage products!! Highly recommend stopping here to visit if you’re in the area.

  • 5/5 Michelle W. 2 years ago on Google
    One of my favorite spot to go when I come to visit Atlanta. There is fun things to do for all ages. Price is affordable. Great spot to spend time with your friends and family. They added two new rooms since I went here!!!

  • 5/5 Katherine M. 2 years ago on Google
    Very interesting and fun for all ages. The staff was spectacular, full of friendly smiles and helpful energy. Can't wait to go back again. So much to learn, and I'm sure I didn't get it all. Halloween 🎃 exhibit was very cute!

  • 5/5 Katina P. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a really good time at the world of coca cola. The history behind the drink is intriguing and the building is fun. Love the artifacts and the tasting room and the movie theater along with the 3d film was quite enjoyable. Beware your belly will be filled with coke products in the end.

  • 5/5 Jay K. 2 years ago on Google
    This was WAY more awesome than expected. And with a tasting room at the end of our tour we were in heaven!! Its literally all you can drink with flavors from all over the world. Absolutely awesome!

  • 4/5 Caro Z. 2 years ago on Google
    The entrance costs around $20. You can estimate to spend 4 hours in the place. There is parking across the street that costs $10 for 4 hours. The place has 2 floors. They arrived you in the first floor and a Coca Cola member will greet you and explained you how the tour works. The tour is “self - service”. You can choose where to go. But when you go out to the gift shop, you cannot go back. There are different rooms: a cinema with a movie about cocoa cola, some taste experience, some smell experience. You can take a pic with Coca Cola bear. He comes at 4 different hours to the lobby.

  • 4/5 David L. 1 year ago on Google
    We visited World of Coke early on a Sunday and it was a great way to spend a few hours with kids. Even as an adult, I found the history of Coke very interesting. They really do a good job of making engaging exhibits with real, human tour guides while selling Coke along the way. The highlight, of course, is the tasting room. Although it's a little gross, it is cool to be able to taste different drinks from all over the world, which would otherwise be pretty difficult. The gift shop was also better than expected and had a wide variety of apparel and toys. You are going to want to stop here. This is the main thing in Atlanta so be sure to not miss it!

    The World of Coca-Cola provides an intriguing, albeit somewhat overly-glossy, look at one of the world's most recognized brands. Nestled in downtown Atlanta, the museum traces the history of Coca-Cola, from its origins to its global ubiquity, making for an interesting, if somewhat commercial, experience. The museum's standout feature is undoubtedly the Taste It! Beverage Lounge, where you can sample an array of Coca-Cola products from around the globe free of charge. The experience of tasting a diverse range of flavors, familiar and foreign, adds a tangible, interactive element to the visit. That being said, the museum sometimes feels more like an extended advertisement than an unbiased exploration of the brand's history. It offers a wealth of artifacts and information, but the overall narrative seems overly sanitized, with little critique or in-depth exploration of some of the brand's controversial aspects. All in all, the World of Coca-Cola provides an entertaining day out, especially for those with a sweet tooth for the iconic beverage. Just be prepared for a largely sugar-coated depiction of this global brand's history and impact.

    Tickets are cheaper by a few bucks online versus buying them at the kiosk! This is a very cool 1 & done experience. You will have a good time and some of the employees are very interactive and outgoing! We did go during summertime so it was very busy (as expected). But it was just too many people throughout. Especially in the tasting room area. Recommend if you’ve never been!

    Visit this place was so worth it. If you love art and creativity you will love this place. They have cleverly used art on the bottles with different themes and stories. You can witness dramatic tours when they take you to the locker where the recipe is kept and let me just tell you tour guides here have great sense of humour. Afcourse in the end you get to taste different drinks made by the company in different countries and you can also taste original coca cola.

  • 3/5 Luis S. 9 months ago on Google
    Good experience but no extraordinary. We had to listen to a host trying to make funny jokes for about fifteen minutes. She talked about coca cola history for five. Inside the museum you will find a lot of coca cola antiques to see to include a wall of drinks. We then experienced the drink room which my kids loved it (sugar rush). The floor was very sticky due to the drinks syrup. Finally we walked the coca cola store. Items for sale were a little high in the price but affordable.

  • 5/5 Meggie W. 8 months ago on Google
    What a great place! Learned so much about the myths and the truths of Coke. The genius about Coke was due to Asa Candler. He put the Coca-Cola logo on everything and gave away free tastes! It became so recognizable for that reason! The movie was super cute, but the tasting room was the best! My favorite flavor was Viva! This was an experience that took about 3 hours for us to complete on a Saturday and boy was it busy! Such a fun experience too!

  • 3/5 Shailee B. 8 months ago on Google
    One time visit is good. It’s a must visit place if you’re visiting Atlanta. I recommend buying tickets in advance online to beat the rush (although those tickets are non-refundable) so if you can’t make it past 5pm, don’t buy tickets online. I couldn’t get refund when i got stuck in a crash slowdown. Overall nice place to hangout with family.

    World of Coca-Cola is located opposite to the Aquarium, so it’s easy to go from one to the other, it’s very deceptive size wise small from the outside, who would thought there is so much to see regarding a SODA drink, but there is. The exhibits are spread over 2 floors in a structured manner, starting off with Coca Cola advertisements and merchandise from around the world and though the ages, interesting stuff, you will be enlightened by why it all started, the humble beginnings in a chemist shop, then you learn about smart investment and bottling and the distribution that has made Coca Cola what it is today. You will see the VAULT which houses the RECIPE, the recipe used to be housed at the local bank, you will be amazed to know only certain persons via fingerprints can access the vault, Coca Cola are very smart. There is the fan interaction, there is fan creativity on show, there is the scents associated with certain flavours of which there is many. To finish you can sample the flavours around the world, you can sample as much as you want, so if you’re thirsty this is ideal for you, just remember too sugar not good. As you leave there is merchandise and there is a lot on offer, you will not fail to be disappointed by the offerings

  • 5/5 Nali Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Coca-Cola museum... That's exactly what I expected, and it was so fun even though there is no new surprising stuff. It's just sugar water but you will realize it could be more than that. You can taste a lot of beverages there but the activity is going to be an activity that makes you recognize how the original Coca-Cola is special. That's my 5 cents!

  • 4/5 Naturally E. 7 months ago on Google
    I enjoyed the museum! It was really cool to learn about the history of my favorite soda. I didn't love some of the staff as they were very rude. Other than that, it was a fun visit especially the tasting room!

  • 4/5 Royce P. 7 months ago on Google
    This was a very interesting place with all kinds of history about Coca-Cola. It was a bit different then I thought as the fist part they funnel you into a room and tell you about the history and have you sit down to watch a short film. The tasting room is huge and was a very cool highlight of the museum and the gift shop is huge with everything and anything you can image with very neat designs.

  • 5/5 Anand 8 months ago on Google
    Great place to visit for Coca Cola fans. The museum provides a great history about the company. All the old equipments and advertisements displayed really takes you back in time. We loved the experience of seeing the coke being bottled. The best part is the coke drinks from around the world. You will taste the best and the worst drinks possible. My 8 year old really enjoyed the experience and she never had a sip of coke prior to this.

  • 5/5 Steve F. 7 months ago on Google
    Excellent place to spend a few hours and enjoy exploring the exhibits We paid a little extra to have a tour guide, not an excessive cost and certainly added to the experience. Didn't have to queue up to see "The Bear" or the Vault or the cinema presentation. Got lots of additional educational information and were able to ask questions. Have free soft drinks at the start too

  • 4/5 Steve W. 6 months ago on Google
    Sooooo crowded! The history and storytelling was wonderful. I'd love to visit again when it's not packed with foreign tours. Some visitors were from countries that don't value manners, so we were pushed around and cut off quite a bit. The staff was friendly and very professional. The hosts were hilarious, by far the best part of our experience.
