In Short
A 50-minute studio tour takes you into the guts of the CNN operation and some of its networks, including Headline News. You'll pass through glass-enclosed overhead walkways, a simulated control room and ride one tall escalator. Along the way, you'll observe the newsroom in action, learn the secrets of the teleprompter and listen to a shameless self-promotion from Ted Turner himself (on television, of course).

This is the second time that I've been and I get more and more disappointed every time I go. I ended up going with some family in town but could've just saved the money.

This tour was interesting and informative. Great look at CNN around the world and you really do get to look behind the scenes. My husband and I enjoyed getting to see the news be filmed and broadcast live while we watched from above. The building is fun to look at even if you don't pay to take the tour. We thought it was very worth the money. Young kids might not find it interesting and might be bored on the tour. We would recommend it to people visiting Atlanta. There is a food-cort in the building too if you want to grab lunch while you are there. They seemed to have a lot of food options.

I went on this tour with some people from the conference that I attended a few years ago. We got a tour of the studios (pre-anthrax threat shutdown). We missed them filming any of the shows there but it was still fun to see the studios and watch the people at work at their desks. If you get a chance, get passes to sit in on one of the shows, it will make the experience even more memorable. Plus, downstairs they have a large foodcourt just in case you go there around meal times.
