A tour of the Georgia Governor’s Mansion is a wonderful outing for kids and adults alike. FREE public tours are conducted throughout the year on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 10:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.

The tour is a hybrid of a guided and self guided tour.  There are docents stationed in each room to teach you about the collection but you may go from room to room at your own pace.

Holiday Tours

The Governor’s Mansion provides special holiday tours where you can marvel at how the home has been decorated for the season. There’s also a tree lighting ceremony and since the mansion is a drop site for Toys for Tots you can bring kid-friendly donations there as well.

What’s Cooking?

Find out what Executive Chef Holly Chute has on the menu then take a look at some of the other “In the kitchen” specials the mansion has to offer.
