- To increase employment opportunities for community residents.
What was the inspiration for Hidden Gems Tours?
The company owner wanted to write a book about the rideshare industry. He spent thousands of dollars riding with Uber and Lyft and realized that there were no laws, rules and regulations guiding the operations of these companies.
During his three years of driving for Uber, riders kept asking him two important questions, “Where do I eat” and “What should I see/visit?”
He wondered why they were asking these questions even though they had access to sites such as Booking, Trip Advisors, Airbnb, Yelp, and Expedia.
Upon further questioning, he noted that many riders wanted to see places beyond those already listed on those websites and wanted to experience local culinary dishes, as well.
Thus came the idea of taking visitors “off the beaten path”.

Dear Visitors,
Welcome on board!
The HGT Walks specializes in giving tourists or groups of any size and age walking tours of the Historic Auburn Avenue District. We can design personalized excursions for adults, primarily women, aged 19 to 45; children aged five to 18; sororities and fraternities; convention attendees; and family reunions.
This first walking tour along Auburn Avenue focuses on how early African American businesses, churches, and social and cultural organizations fought to ensure that there was social, cultural, and economic progress in the community and paved the way for current businesses and educational institutions to be successful. The tour also discusses how these organizations paved the way for current businesses and educational institutions to be successful.
