Here are pictures we took on our Atlanta Movie Tours - Big Zombie Tour Part 1. Walking Dead is one of our favorite shows, so it was great to see several locations where the show was filmed.
Where possible I tried to find pictures from the show episodes to go along with the pictures we took for reference. Where applicable, the pictures from the show are directly below the actual photos we took and are kinda obvious, but I also put SHOW PHOTO in the caption.
Mucho thanks to WalkingDeadLocations.com, as that is where I got the show pictures from. Great site! I included links to those sites and several other Walking Dead tour/shooting location sites at the bottom of this post as well. ZOMBIES!!!

Awesome Walking Dead Links
Our tour guide HIGHLY recommended getting the Walking Dead comic books. He said they are different enough that they will not be a spoiler for the show. He recommended grabbing the compendium paperback versions. That just means that they they combine the comic books into two larger sets rather than buying each individual episode, which is cheaper as well.
Here they are:
The Walking Dead: Compendium One (#1-48)
The Walking Dead: Compendium Two (#49-96)
WalkingDeadLocations.com - Awesome site listing all the filming locations with pictures for most showing the spots along with photos from the episodes. It even lists GPS coordinates for most of the main scenes. GREAT site, also where I grabbed comparison pictures for this post. Definitely check the site out!

Atlanta Movie Company Zombie Tours - We took the Part 1 tour and hope to do more tours on return visits to the Atlanta. They have a
Part 2 tour that goes to Haralson, GA and there is also an affiliate tour that you can take that is
free and located in Grantville, GA.
Senoia, GA is another one of the main shooting locations to research, which is home to the Governor's town of Woodbury.
Facebook pages for the tour guides for our tour are below. They were both featured walkers on the show:
