Georgia Unveils 2025 Travel Guide to Inspire Statewide Exploration
Travel enthusiasts have a new reason to set their sights on Georgia with the release of the 2025 Georgia Travel Guide. Spanning 130 pages, this guide is filled with travel ideas for all interests, making it an essential tool for planning a visit to the Peach State. Enhanced with a comprehensive state map, the guide provides insights into prominent landmarks and hidden treasures alike.
“Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a lifelong Georgian, this year’s travel guide will help you find a reason to keep Georgia on your mind,” said Governor Brian Kemp. “In our family’s travels across the state, we’ve learned that every community holds a unique treasure, with memorable experiences and world-famous Southern hospitality found in every place that Georgians call home. As our state continues to grow and remains a premier destination for travelers and businesses alike, this resource will encourage exploration that will ultimately benefit our local communities, small businesses, and all Georgians, thanks to the economic impact that travelers make across the Peach State.”
This year’s guide features an innovative four-tab cover, highlighting Georgia’s diverse landscapes and cultural experiences—from the mountainous Toccoa Falls to the lively cityscape of Columbus, the charming town of Covington, and the tranquil coast of Sapelo Island.
“Tourism plays a key role in driving economic growth and elevating our state’s global appeal,” said Georgia Department of Economic Development Commissioner Pat Wilson. “By showcasing much of what makes our state so special, this guide is the latest example of how tourism not only involves sight-seers, but also business leaders, film producers, event planners, and potential residents, supporting jobs and attracting investments that bolster our state and local economies.”
Informed by research and visitor feedback, the guide offers a spectrum of trip ideas within Georgia. Readers can explore various itineraries, attractions, dining options, and events. Notable sections include:
- “Best Trips of 2025” – Must-see experiences across Georgia.
- “Ready, Set, Outdoors” – Outdoor adventures in Georgia State Parks.

“Georgia’s regions and landmarks are as diverse as they are distinct, and this year’s guide captures these unique assets in a way that resonates with the needs and interests of our visitors,” said Georgia Department of Economic Development Chief Marketing Officer Mark Jaronski. “Thanks to the leadership of Governor Kemp, the support of our Tourism Foundation Board of Directors, and the efforts of our statewide tourism industry – including our visitor-driven marketing efforts like this travel guide – Georgians are benefiting from the strongest tourism economy in our state’s history. This guide will further our mission to inspire visitation and spending across all regions of Georgia.”
