Tennessee Travel Agent Advisor

As a dedicated travel agent with a deep love for the American South, I’m excited to introduce you to Tennessee — a state that captures the spirit of the American experience like no other. From the soulful tunes of Nashville’s honky-tonk bars to the breathtaking beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains, Tennessee offers a mix of vibrant cities, charming small towns, outdoor adventures, and rich cultural heritage. Whether you’re a music lover, outdoor enthusiast, or simply looking for a relaxing getaway, Tennessee promises an unforgettable journey. Let me guide you through the very best of what this incredible state has to offer.


 


Nashville: The Music Capital of the World


Nashville, Tennessee, is synonymous with country music — and for good reason. Known as "Music City," Nashville is the beating heart of the country music scene, home to legendary venues like the Grand Ole Opry, the Ryman Auditorium, and Broadway’s honky-tonk bars. Whether you’re catching a live show at the historic Ryman or exploring the Country Music Hall of Fame, Nashville immerses visitors in the sounds and stories of country’s past and present. But Nashville isn’t just for country fans. It’s a city that thrives with eclectic food, a growing craft beer scene, and modern art galleries. From indulging in Southern comfort food to exploring the Parthenon in Centennial Park, Nashville offers countless diverse experiences.


 


Great Smoky Mountains: A Natural Wonderland


For those who love the outdoors, the Great Smoky Mountains offer some of the most stunning natural beauty in the United States. This UNESCO World Heritage Site, straddling the border between Tennessee and North Carolina, features over 19,000 species of living organisms, including diverse wildlife like black bears, deer, and wild turkeys. Whether you’re hiking along scenic trails, exploring cascading waterfalls, or simply taking in the awe-inspiring vistas from Clingmans Dome (the highest peak in the Smokies), the Great Smoky Mountains provide endless opportunities for adventure. As an outdoor expert, I can help you plan everything from family-friendly hikes to more challenging backcountry trails. I can also arrange guided wildlife tours or secluded cabin stays in the heart of the Smokies for the ultimate peaceful retreat.


 


Memphis: The Birthplace of Rock ‘n’ Roll


Memphis, located along the Mississippi River, is where the story of rock ‘n’ roll began. The city is home to the iconic Graceland, Elvis Presley’s former home and one of the most visited private residences in the United States. A tour of Graceland is a must for music lovers, as it gives you a glimpse into the life of the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. But Memphis has much more to offer beyond Elvis — from the legendary Sun Studio, where icons like Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis recorded their first hits, to Beale Street, a bustling area filled with live blues music and vibrant nightlife. I can help you experience Memphis like a local, whether it’s by taking a guided tour of its historic music venues, exploring the National Civil Rights Museum, or discovering the best spots for barbecue — a true Memphis specialty.


 


Chattanooga: Adventure and Scenic Beauty


For those seeking outdoor adventures paired with breathtaking views, Chattanooga is the perfect destination. Nestled along the Tennessee River and surrounded by mountains, Chattanooga offers a blend of natural beauty and exciting activities. Whether you’re kayaking on the river, rock climbing at Lookout Mountain, or hiking through Rock City to see panoramic views of the surrounding valleys, Chattanooga is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. Chattanooga also boasts a thriving arts scene, with galleries, museums, and the stunning Hunter Museum of American Art perched on a bluff overlooking the river.


 


Civil War History: A Journey Through America’s Past


Tennessee played a pivotal role in the American Civil War, and for history buffs, the state offers a wealth of historical sites to explore. From the Shiloh National Military Park, which commemorates one of the war’s bloodiest battles, to Fort Donelson, where the Union army secured a significant victory, Tennessee offers a chance to step back in time and learn about this turbulent chapter in American history. I can create customized Civil War tours, offering insight into Tennessee’s role in the conflict, visiting historic battlefields, and touring preserved military sites.


 


Luxury and Southern Hospitality: Stay in Style


Tennessee is home to a wide range of luxury accommodations, from elegant historic hotels in Nashville to boutique inns tucked away in the Smoky Mountains. Whether you’re seeking a sophisticated hotel in downtown Nashville or a secluded luxury cabin in the Smokies, Tennessee has options to suit every preference. Enjoy world-class service, gourmet dining, and the warm, welcoming hospitality that the South is known for.

Week in Bend
Bend, Oregon, is now one of our favorite destinations, thanks to Harrison's impeccable planning! He set us up with a combination of outdoor adventures like hiking and rafting, and downtime at charming local breweries and other cozy spots.

From the perfect accommodations to an itinerary that balanced activity and relaxation, we couldn't have asked for a better trip. Highly recommend his services!
