"High-octane thrills can be had at the Porsche Experience Center, the brand’s North American headquarters on the grounds of the former Ford plant in Hapeville. The facility boasts a driving track where visitors can test out vehicles or learn from a racing coach, as well as a simulator lab, behind-the-scenes tours, and vehicle delivery options. Gearheads can also check out the rotating display of cars, which come directly from the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart, Germany . When hunger strikes, head to Restaurant 356, named for Porsche’s first car, and enjoy some fine dining overlooking the track."

Ask for Joe!! I did the Porsche Drive Experience yesterday and it was absolutely incredible. Joe was my coach and I can’t recommend him enough — he was polite, kind, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He gave me clear instructions, made me feel totally comfortable, and ensured I had the most fun possible while staying safe. The entire experience went above and beyond my expectations. If you love cars and have always dreamed of pushing one to the limit on a real track, this is the place to do it. Highly recommended and make sure to ask for Joe!

An experience indeed! Can self tour or if in a group, organize a guided tour. Appropriate for all ages and car lovers but especially for Porsche enthusiasts. We didn’t do the actual driving course but had a lovely time learning about the history of Porsche vehicles to recent time and future plans. Our guide was amazing and incredibly knowledgeable! The cafe was overpriced as can be expected at such establishments but great for a quick bite with amazing views. I’d highly recommend it to all car lovers.!

So much fun! Spent about 4 hours watching, touring, doing a ride along, and using the simulator. Very cool to be able to see everything up close. Staff was so friendly and knowledgeable and the price was fair for the experience. Will definitely recommend to others!

Amazing experience. This will make any car lover or adrenaline fan wanting more. Top notch would be an understatement regarding the staff. The cars are top of the line. The instructors are very knowledgeable and seasoned. You go expecting top speeds and leave with that and so much more. Would recommend 10 times out of 10.

Unforgettable Experience at the Porsche Experience Center with Aaron From the moment I arrived at the Porsche Experience Center, I knew I was in for something special — but nothing could have prepared me for the thrill that awaited. The facility itself is stunning, with a perfect blend of luxury, innovation, and performance energy in the air. But the real highlight? Aaron. Aaron was more than just an instructor — he was a true professional, passionate about driving and deeply knowledgeable about every nuance of the Porsche brand. His guidance was clear, patient, and inspiring. He didn’t just teach me how to drive; he taught me how to feel the car — how to connect with it on a whole new level. From mastering the dynamic track to experiencing launch control and precision handling, every second was pure adrenaline. The way the car responded to my movements, the raw power, the precision… it’s something I’ll never forget. This wasn’t just a driving experience. It was a once-in-a-lifetime moment that changed the way I see performance, focus, and excellence. If you’re thinking about doing it — don’t hesitate. And if you can, request Aaron. He made the experience unforgettable.

If you go to the Porsche driving experience and are looking for enthusiastic drive and actually drive the car the way it’s meant too be driven on the track then please ask for Jesse Seeley. He is well experienced, very professional, and had a great conversation throughout the whole drive while he also provided great coaching with constructive criticism. I will be coming back for sure thank you Jesse for giving me an unforgettable experience!

I took my boyfriend here as a Fathers Day gift! We had such a great time. He did the demonstration on the track. They put him in the wrong car and quickly noticed and let him do two rides. Phenomenal customer service! He also did the 30 min stimulator and he enjoyed every moment. The museum was cool. Restaurant upstairs was great. The customer service is impressive. I spoke to at least nine employees, and every one of them had a smile on their face ,was very professional and happy to assist and make recommendations and etc. I highly recommend this experience. It is definitely worth the money.

Reservations are required, and especially to get the best out of your time on track and at the center. Overall, the Porsche Experience Center Atlanta delivers an exciting, premium experience that lives up to the Porsche name. Whether you’re a lifelong fan, just want to see what these cars are capable of, or just gawk at the beautiful man made machines it’s well worth the visit. The patrons treat you very well!

This was a surprise visit hosted by relatives we were visiting in the atlanta area. The buildings themselves are impressive, the guard shack where you have to show ID's to enter, the lobby of the building with Porsche's you can sit in, hearing about the benefits provided to Porsche emoloyees, the museum display in the basement, and watching folks race cars around the track, drive through obstacles courses, spin out on the circular and straight away water soaked tracks was all such a fun experience. All while having a great meal at the on-site restaurant, another review.

Preface: I am a driving enthusiast and felt that the Porsche heritage and pedigree was leaps and bounds ahead of the other car brands. I have had all types of cars in my history and said one day I'll purchase a new 911 and life will be complete. At the tender age of 40 I bought my first 911... Sadly this isn't the case. The Porsche story as amazing as it is with Ferdinand Porsche and involvement with WW2 to the development of the 356 to the 911 to the 944/928 to SUV market of today. I mean heck even the little 911 documentary of seeing how in less than 2min they wire in the harness of the new 911 was engaging. As I said I have purchased a 911, 2 in fact on second GTS as write this and it's all in the last 18months and the interaction and the quest to acquire the models purchased was exhausting. Granted any purchase process for a vehicle is more or less annoying but Porsche being this quasi-exotic brand has been following in the footsteps of Ferrari. For example I couldn't buy the car I want because I don't have a strong enough relationship (aka bought enough vehicles) to get an allocation. So against my better judgement I bought 1 which was a nightmare. Couldn't even get it registered for nearly a year because someone fouled up the paperwork. Needless to say I dumped that car. Bought another after being quoted 20-30k over sticker, I found a lovely dealer who sold me the car at MSRP. Now I have owned my car for nearly 10 months and cannot get an oil change because I don't fall in the perimeters for the complimentary initial oil change. Overall my experience with Porsche is less than desirable and to be quite honest very disappointing. The price point is just too high for the performance of the vehicle when you can get significantly lesser priced valued cars with either way more performance or driving ethos. At this point my dream of being a proud Porsche owner has been dashed. As per the Porsche Experience (PE) As a several Porsche owner I finally decided to see what the PE was all about. I had hopes of this warm welcoming exciting experience (much like I get when I arrive as Disney world) but sadly it's more like just a bunch of people struggling to make it through the day. I should add the coach/experienced driver was very pleasant and did give that feeling of enjoying his job (but who wouldn't like to blast around in a half million dollars of cars every 2hrs on a close track...) and relating with me the guest. The review above really is toward the initial walk in to the facility and the gift shop. I was a touch disappointed with the offers in the gift shop. For example they have the low-end 911 model cars (Carrera, S, T). And then the high end model car options (911 R, GT3 RS, Etc). Of course my car falls in the middle with the GTS and it's not an option for purchase. Overall as a driving enthusiast it's a fun experience but is it worth the near 2k.... No. Much like the 911s of today this is simply overpriced for the experience. I mean heck the GT3 I was testing had the check engine light pop on. Happily it wasn't while I was driving. My instructor (who I requested to take a few laps to see what a pro could do behind the wheel set it off). And this GT3 only had 400 miles on the clock. Finally, this is a one and done for me. It was mildly pleasant and I really enjoyed my time with the instructor. But I left wanting. I left reconsidering if I made the right choice of becoming a Porsche owner.

I went here for a tour on my birthday and it was fantastic! I believe my tour guide's name was Steve. He was EXTREMELY knowledgeable and passionate about Porsche which made the tour more fun. I appreciated how he gave a whole overview of the company, thean behind it, and the vehicles. The vehicles inside of the building are unlocked so you can go in and take photos unless there's a sign telling you not to. There are lots of cool spots to go take pictures. There's also a simulator lab (paid) for those who want to test drive but may not be able to go out on the actual track. There is a full restaurant and a small cafe that serves food. The restaurant takes reservations. Apparently, they also host private events such as proms and weddings. Overall, it was a really fun experience, even for people who may not be car aficionados.

Definitely recommend booking a couple of months early because they fill up quick. I booked for my birthday this past weekend and due to schedule error it changed my entire plan. But, I trusted Chris whom handles the schedule and he definitely made my birthday one to remember. Riding in a GTS was dream and now adding to my vision board.

I came here for a private event tonight and the place was beautiful! I didn't know anything like this existed and now I want to come back and take a drive! We were in the top floor above the raceway and it was a beautiful view. The airplanes fly over and the track itself is really cool to look at. Our food was really good with several appetizers and a buffet. Staff were friendly and they did a great job of entertaining. Inside there are so many things to do during the day. You can do a simulator, and walk through the whole building. Really cool place.

Came to the Porsche experience as a treat for my husband for our honeymoon, and it was well worth the drive. The staff there truly take the whole experience seriously and make you feel like royalty. While the museum only takes a couple minutes to get through (there isn't much) the actual experience is extraordinary. My husband raved about his 90 min driving experience and said it was one of the best experiences of his life. While it is extremely pricey, if you have someone who loves Porsche, it is worth every penny! Ask for Chad for your driving instructor.

If you are a car aficionado and have always dreamt about driving a luxury car, this is the perfect place for you! I gifted my husband a driving experience for Christmas and he loved every moment of it. The building was very nice with a modern feel. There is security before you enter the parking area and they made sure you are on the list before you're allowed to enter. We got there about 30 minutes before our scheduled time and was greeted by another security upon entering. He directed us where we needed to go to check in for the driving experience. Once at the counter, there were two parties ahead of us but checking in was quick and painless since we signed all the proper waivers prior to arrival. We were given badges (one for a driver and another for a spectator, which we later found out we can keep as a keepsake) and a buzzer (used to notify you once your coach is ready). We were then told to head to the cafe and hang out there before the appointment time. A few minutes later, the buzzer went off to meet the assigned coach, David A. He was awesome to work with and very knowledgeable about the workings of the car. My husband drove the Taycan Turbo S and loved it. The coach's job is not to sell the car to you, but to educate you with how the car works and how it drives in different modules. My husband was behind the wheel for at least an hour, which he said was plenty of time. Even I got driven around 2 laps by the coach and was a blast. This is such a fun experience to do and I highly recommend especially if you love driving fast cars!

This is definitely a must-do if you're a car fan. Make sure to book your driving experience early as they tend to get booked. Unfortunately, we weren't able to book one but we still enjoyed visiting the center. You get to learn about the history and different types of Porsches. There is a gift shop where I was able to get some cute toys and clothes for my son. Restaurant 356 is amazing as well. I left a separate review for the restaurant.

I was fortunate enough to attend a summit that was held here and it was absolutely amazing. I appreciate the security that the place has so if you don't have an approved appointment, you will be turned away. The simulators are so real! If you have vertigo I would highly suggest not doing it. Be sure to swing by their store too. They have some cool things to leave with including a silicone cube tray with the Porsche logo which we had to leave with.

We checked this place out and were really happy to check out the facility. We had reservations at the 356 restaurant located inside the facility and then had access to the Porsche facility to look at the impressive Porsche collection on display. The facility itself is actually the base camp of the infamous Avengers and was pretty cool to see in person. From the 356 restaurant you can view guests driving around various parts of the track wherein they can practice evasive maneuvers, drifting, maneuver through a skid course as well as pushing themselves to the limit in a Porsche of their choice! The food at 356 is decent, but at Porsche pricing. You're also paying for the cool atmosphere. If you're a car enthusiast or just want to try something different then I'd say go check the place out. Also did I mention they have Porsche shaped butter?! Nice touch Porsche! It's a great place to take a date, the family or just grab a bite to eat then take a Porsche out for a spin! There are driving experience packages to choose from and price range from $395 to $1500, depending on which Porsche you drive and amount of time you pick.

Best day ever! I have always been a Porsche lover & driving (a brand new Panamera & Porsche 911 turbo) on their 2 different tracks was an absolute dream come true. The driving instructors were friendly and provided excellent instruction. It was an all-around world class unique experience & hubby & I look forward to returning next time we visit Atlanta.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE FOR CAR ENTHUSIASTS! I purchased a Carrera S for my husband's birthday here and he would not shut up for weeks afterwards. Lol. They have great instructors that are in the car with you and tell you to have fun! They don't hold back! The track is awesome, it has many different parts where you go through and test the cars limit. A wonderful experience, I will definitely return and do a session myself. There are multiple car classes you can pick from. Do book early as they do sell out. Not for the weak hearted. The building has other parts you can visit. There's a color of Porsche exhibit, and a restaurant upstairs. Fun fact- this is where they filmed Marvel's Avenger headquarters!

If I could give this place a higher rating I would. As a Porsche fan and car enthusiast, this experience was a dream come true. The facility is beautiful and very well kept, and the staff is enthusiastic and helpful. I had a ride along experience, and the driver was extremely talented. I'll definitely be coming back to drive for myself. I was pleasantly surprised at the fact that the Carrera cafe was not very expensive. The snacks we had were good, not something to write home about but they were decent. I would absolutely recommend this spot to any car enthusiast or thrill seeker that is visiting Atlanta.

If you love Porsche as much as I do you will love visiting the Porsche Experience Center here in Atlanta. As soon as you walk in you will be greeted by a professional staff with smiling faces who are eager to help you with any questions that you have about their product. The Porsche Experience Center structure is a work of art in every way possible and the 356 Restaurant upstairs has a wonderful view of the track as you enjoy their exquisite cuisines. The Vintage Museum and the Restoration Center in the lower levels will absolutely blow your mind. OMG... it felt like I died and went to Porsche Heaven! Orlando Florida has Disney World for your children and Atlanta Georgia has The Porsche Experience Center for the Big boys and Girls. I fell in love with a Spyder... a Porsche 718 Spyder! (¬‿¬)

This was so much fun. I recently got a Cayman gts so I was looking to learn how to push it properly. I learned so much during my 90min with the instructor. They have a bunch of different courses to develop several different skills, and a track where you can put it all together. There's several different Porsche's to choose from... the higher end ones obviously cost more. Imo the Cayman is more than enough... I was catching up to 911s all the time on the track. There is a museum too but I skipped that... was there for the driving. Only complaint is that there can be some slow traffic on the track... including people in the Porsche suvs!!! I'm already planning on trying out the Los Angeles Porsche experience next time I am there. Tip: -bring someone to take photos/ videos of you from the balcony area, as you can't record anything in car Don't dress too warm... pushing it really works up a sweat!

Hellooooo Porsche! I had so much fun driving and checking this place out! Kyler, our coach, was awesome and very informative. Is it pretty expensive? Well, yes, but it's Porsche so don't expect cheap. Driving a car around the track with the coach can run you anywhere from $300-$1000 (for 90 min session). Additionally, you can sit in the passenger seat while an experienced driver takes you around the track for about 5 laps anywhere from $60 to, I believe, $100. Don't quote me on these prices or laps as I'm sure they are subject to change. Every employee there is very polite. The restaurant is pretty good too! As a fun sidenote, they're located right next to the airport so you can see a lot of flights land and take off! I would recommend this place as a fancy gift for someone such as a birthday (especially for a car enthusiast).

My buddy came from the Bay Area to visit me, and one thing he wanted to do was the PEC. I told him I will see what I can do, because I figured it wasn't one of those places you can just walk up to. And, that is quite true. However, if you are a Porsche fan, are thinking about wanting to buy a one, or have some cash to burn, then check this place out. I would like to preface a few things- this place is near the airport, and you must check in at the gate if you even want to consider getting into this place. I would start off by doing your research online. Here is a breakdown of what you can do: Simulators, from 30-60 minutes, 40-75$ Guided tours, 90 minutes, starting from $16 Demo laps And of course, the actual driving, where depending on the car you choose, will cost from $365-975. There is also a hotel on site, a catering facility, restaurants, a gift shop, a restoration factory, and a heritage center. According to the site, the heritage center is free. Which, it is, but you may want to call ahead, especially if they are busy. When I drove up that day I told them I wanted to visit the Heritage Center they thought I was huffing glue, lol. Thankfully, they gave me a card, I tried calling, but long story short, after waiting about 15 minutes, they let us in. I guess they had 2 large events that day. All we wanted to do was look at some cars, not start anything. Security is definitely on edge here, as it should be, there is millions of dollars of inventory housed in the building. And, a lot of Porsche history here. Did you know that Porsche North America moved from Reno, NV to Sandy Springs, GA? Good call, I would have too... They have some pretty cars here, and is a great backdrop for a prom or something catered to a car enthusiast. The gift shop has plenty of over priced things, all Porsche, for the infant up to the grandparents. Hell, they even have model cars priced in the 5 digit range. This place is high end, for sure, and a celebration of German engineering. If you run into the assistant chief track instructor, his name is Hunter Gahl- you will be in good hands. Just make sure you do your research before you come, and if you plan on driving, don't drink any alcohol!

I won this experience in a sales contest at my former job and finally got around to using the voucher on Memorial Day Weekend. This place is on the south side of Atlanta, off 75 and in an industrial area that's run down, close to airport (several planes flew over). The facility is gated with a security guard, and is part of Porsche's National Headquarters. Once you drive up, you notice how nice the place is with Porsche cars scattered in the front, mainly for looks. We had to set up a time in advance, which was in 2 hour increments. They had my name on a list and let me through. When I walked into the front doors, I had no idea where to go. There was not anybody at the main front desk and I just got lucky by walking to the right place. They had plastic on the floor and everything smelled new. I loved seeing some of the Porsche racing cars inside the building too (I'm sure some of these were on the game Gran Tourismo). Once I found the right check in desk, I got my visitors badge and then my instructor, Jeff, grabbed me and we headed past the Carrera Cafe, past the viewing lounge deck and down to a bunch of Porsche cars facing their simulation track. I had won the Boxster Experience, which was $350, so the Boxster was what I drove. Not my choice car. They had carrera's to drive and an upgraded version of the Boxster. My instructor had me get in the car, and adjusted it to fit me. Literally, it was straight to the car and on the track. No simulation driving or anything. Yikes! This is not like Andretti but you find these cars can handle anything! I drove a lap around the track with cars flying past, and then he started the training. Training Step 1: Take off and hard braking. LOVED THIS! Pure adrenaline rush. Car is put into a sport mode by pressing a button. You hold down brake with left foot and slam gas, then let off brake and zoom! You fly down about 100 yards, hitting almost 70-80mph and then SLAM on the brakes. This warms up the tires and I also found it gets the wetness off the tires for better traction. FYI - I was scared on the braking but you find out fast that these cars can brake very fast. Training Step 2: Cone slalom. This was fun and required hands on the wheel and moving in perfect motion to go around the cones. Trick was to keep your eyes ahead of you at the cones in the distance and not on the ones right in front of you. This was easy. Training Step 3: Traction control. Ok, this scared the crap out of me the first time and then got my adrenaline going. Basically, you head into a wet area at around 20-30mph. Once you hit a certain spot, the back end of the car gets kicked left or right (you never know) and you have to regain traction to get the car going straight again. It's almost like hitting an ice patch. I nailed it the first time with instincts. You have to use throttle in order to regain control and quick hands on steering wheel. Braking only causes you to spin out 360 degrees, which I did the next three times. Very fun to test handling skills. Training Step 4: Wet circle. My favorite part. It's an advanced version of step 3 and this time you are purposefully making the car's back end kick out to the right by giving it throttle, while trying to maintain that right kick around the entire circle. It's constant bursts of throttle and quick hands, and very hard. I was able to get halfway around the circle before spinning out. Once again, no brakes! I got to see another instructor do it, and it's very cool to see somebody go all the way around. The car basically drifts around the entire circle with the right amount of timed throttle and steering wheel movement. Last part, the instructor took over and did two laps around the track. I thought we were going to crash, but the car's handling and grip perfect tires made it another adrenaline rush. He basically floored it the entire time. Once done, I did a picture with the car I drove and headed up to the viewing lounge deck to meet my friend. The Carrera Cafe was closing at that time and the lady gave us some free food since they were going to toss it out. FYI - the food was ehhhhh. Save your money. You can also buy the $50 insurance plan they offer for any damages, but I knew I wasn't going to be crazy. Overall, it was fun! I didn't like driving so far to find it or not knowing where to go when I got into the building. It was odd to not to do a driving simulator first but, hey, why waste time when you can drive a Porsche? The voucher I had expired on May 22nd, but they do allow you to book the experience past the expiration date as long as you book before it expires. I wouldn't pay $350 to do this on my own though, but if you have the money, it's a lot of fun.

This visit was in conjunction with Porsche Cars North America dealership training. They allowed us to have a two lap ride-a-long with one of the professional drivers. They were all very friendly and super talented behind the wheel. It was a great experience.

WOW.. came here for a private event and my gosh they had me as soon as I pulled into the garage. So interestingly enough, they have made the garage in a way that, no matter what car you have, it will screech.. talk about details!!! The cars here are so amazing. I love Porche's... its going to be my NEXT car!! My experience was just amazing. Definitely check this place out.. the experience will speak for itself! You can drive around with the coach if you like, or just walk around and explore all the cars... or just sit on top of the cars and take a few pics (like I did) lol Come check this place out.. great birthday present for your girlfriend or your boyfriend/hubby/wife

If you or someone you know loves Porsche or cars this is the place to go!! This is such a cool place! There is a really neat museum with cars old and new but don't get too close with your camera... I was scolded. Haha! I bought my father one of the experience's for his birthday. He was able to drive two different Porsche's for 90 min. The minute we arrived we were treated like VIP! It was amazing! We also had lunch at the little cafe and it was delicious! They also have a restaurant called 360 but we did not make it in time to eat there. All in all it was a fantastic experience and if you haven't gone go! My father is still talking about how awesome it was!

IMPRESSIVE place to visit in Atlanta, we got in at the last minute. This place is the North America HQ for Porsche. If you are a Porsche owner, this is a must visit. The museum gives you very good perspective and and timeline of some of their cars made in history. They have a huge track behind the facility, if you book in advance, you can test drive their cars on the on-road and off-road course. This is a world class facility in Atlanta. After your visit, go to Dwarf House across the street.

I bought my husband a package for his birthday & by far this is the best gift I have ever given him. I registered online. I was able to see all the car choices & read a little about each one. I chose the 918 Boxster($350). When we arrived we were greeted, checked in & given a buzzer. When it was our time we stepped to the counter & selected by a driver. A very good driver I must say by the name of Phil. While the other drivers stood around & talked Phil & my husband were the 1st ones on the track. Phil said he likes to talk & drive. The whole experience exceeded my expectations. They drove for the full 1 1/2 hours & then Phil took me 4 a couple of laps. Save your coins b/c it is a little pricey but worth it's weight in smiles & excitement from my husband.

As this is a nice place to go and live your dreams of driving a Porshe, it's highly expensive. We were here shooting a Netflix series that day and I must say the place is very impressive. They even have a track where you can test drive a Porshe and pretty much do the speed that you want to do. This is what I was told and not what I have done. They have different packages from "what I was told" ranging from $400 to $1,500. I was told that the $1,500 package included a training for the first day for a few hours and the next day it's your track time. I'm not sure how much track time you get but you're able to get in one of the cars and raise hell on their track. Now, before any of you go, call and verify the prices as that's what I was told while there. For those of you with NASCAR fever, this is the place for you. Also by the way, they have a very nice little restaurant inside of the building. I wish I could have taken pics but the production company who was filming was adamant about no photos. Enjoy yourselves when you do go.

Happy Birthday Husband! Gifted a Porsche Experience to hubby for his 50 and 2 years birthday! In his words, "very nice." Note - 1/2 hour you do not drive. There is a driver which is perfect and probably safer. Definitely less expensive. The staff is great. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. Have some cash if you want to purchase anything. This is Porsche. Great day - highly recommended - now we are off to dine at 356. We expect nothing but the best from this experience and we don't believe that we will be disappointed.

Took my boyfriend here for his 24th Birthday as a surprise and I never seen him smile so much. Everyone was friendly and amazing from the check-in staff to his driver (Chris Ivester). At first I booked the wrong car for "the special day" and his driver Chris was like noooo it's his birthday let's take the convertible lol. Everyone made sure his birthday was one to remember and he could not stop smiling. I would recommend this place to anyone and look forward to coming back.

/TL;DR My lovely wife took me here as a birthday gift. Immense levels of fun that can only be measured in G-forces. I took a Cayman through various types of activities and got a bit of schooling on how to drive from a personal instructor who stays with you the whole time. One of the highlights of 2015. /ATMOSPHERE The campus is beautiful. The cars are beautiful. There's a museum you can roam around if you get there early or stay late. The cars in the museum are so lovely. Here are a few pics of the cars - https://www.instagram.com/p/_cbqzKC_fh/?taken-by=erntsnst https://www.instagram.com/p/_asE0yi_ap/?taken-by=erntsnst https://www.instagram.com/p/_LjwpaC_ZI/?taken-by=erntsnst https://www.instagram.com/p/_Ix2GmC_V8/?taken-by=erntsnst /FOOD Well, there's really nothing spectacular about the Porsche cafe -- except it's ALL FREE as a part of the experience package. So, load up on caffeine if you need it, but not too much. You'll be in your car for a couple of hours. /SERVICE Amazing, friendly service. I was treated like a VIP the whole time. The instructors are very knowledgeable and PATIENT. :)

What an incredible experience! My family and I had the pleasure of just touring the facility and we had smiles on our faces the entire time. I especially want to thank "Stanford" who I spoke to on the phone and driving instructor "Dave" for going above and beyond with the customer service. In fact, everyone we encountered during time there was very helpful and eager to accommodate; the front desk, the security guard, the cafe team and even the office personnel who we just passed walking through. It was quite simply an awesome way to spend time enjoying the sights (and sounds) of such an iconic automobile. We will be back for the real experience of riding/driving!

I have been waiting for this experience since October of 2019! It was well worth the wait! It was AWESOME! 718 Boxster GTS was vehicle of choice and OMG! It did not disappoint! Finally, an opportunity to drive these beautiful cars the Way they were meant to be driven, HARD and FAST in a safe environment! Shout out to my instructor Chase! He explained every activity thoroughly and help me dissect what needed to be done to get my vehicle back in my control! Super cool! Can't wait for the young driver experience so I can bring my sons!

One of the coolest experiences ever! Race around in a Porsche for 90 minutes! The staff is great, the view is awesome, and it's a blast. The only problem? Cost. It costs a minimum of $400 to try it out, or it comes included with the purchase of a new Porsche. Still, worth it!!

Man oh man! I did a ride along....and let's just say, they had to reupholster the seat and replace the interior door handle. This dude went so fast! I was dumb nervous. I couldn't even sit down! Driver was very professional though. Definitely an experience of a lifetime. Do it!

Amazing experience and awesome instructors. Be prepared for a mental and physical workout. You'll also get a "facial" workout because you won't stop smiling!

Very disappointing experience at the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta. I had planned a Porsche Driving Experience a few months back for my boyfriend's birthday weekend. I booked it for 4pm and also made reservations for lunch at their 356 Restaurant at 12:30pm. Upon entering their facilities the staff directed us to the parking area and told us to make sure to sign in for the experience at least 30 minutes before our 4pm time slot at the registration desk. We proceeded to lunch and were seated at a table with direct view to the racetrack and our waiter offered us drinks before our meal. We each ordered one. Later we asked the waiter if the registration desk was on the same floor as the restaurant and he said that we could not go to the racetrack as we had a drink. We looked at him confused and reminded him that he had offered us the drinks and we quickly stopped drinking our beverage and asked for water since our experience was still more than 3 hours away. The waiter said that he would look into it and we continued our dining experience. At 3pm we went downstairs to the registration desk and as soon as we provided my boyfriend's name, the manager Michelle Rainey came out to tell us that they had a Zero Tolerance Policy on alcohol and that we would not be allowed to drive. While we certainly understand no tolerance for drinking, I don't understand why they would offer us drinks and fail to mention their Zero Tolerance policy? Everyone took the time to remind us to be at the registration desk 30 minutes prior to our time slot, but not one staff member mentioned their Zero Tolerance policy on alcohol. It's frustrating, and to make matters worse, there was no sign of remorse/regret by any of the employees citing that they could see that we were local so that it should not be a problem to come back on another day. This is a high-ticket experience that we had pre-paid for. It had been planned months in advance to celebrate an important occasion and we had blocked our entire Saturday afternoon for it. We are extremely disappointed that a premium brand like Porsche would display such lack of professionalism and customer service.
