Tennessee Holidays

Climb aboard a Pink Jeep Wrangler in nearby Pigeon Forge and head into the Great Smoky Mountains, a vast national park known for its forests, waterfalls, and misty views. With a certified Adventure Guide at the wheel, you’ll travel through Gatlinburg before entering the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail, a narrow, one-way scenic loop that follows a lively mountain stream through dense woodland. While your guide navigates the twists and turns, you can relax, take photos, and enjoy the ride.

Along the way, you’ll pass waterfalls, preserved log cabins, and historic homesteads that tell the story of early mountain life. The road climbs through oak, maple, magnolia, and tulip trees to viewpoints with sweeping views across the forested hills.

You’ll stop at key sites such as the Noah “Bud” Ogle Place, the Alfred Reagan Place, and Tub Mill, where you’ll hear stories of the settlers who once lived and worked here. As the Jeep winds back downhill, the stream gathers speed, creating rushing water and dramatic photo opportunities.

The tour finishes with a lively off-road drive on private land, adding a final touch of adventure. You’ll leave with fresh air in your lungs and a memorable introduction to this rugged corner of the Smoky Mountains.

Walk through Graceland as if you belong there. This tour lets you follow in Elvis’s own blue-suede footsteps, with an audio guide featuring stories and commentary from Elvis himself and his daughter, Lisa Marie. You’ll see the rooms where he lived, laughed, worked, and unwound, from the living room and music room to the TV room, pool room, and the famously untamed Jungle Room (no lions, plenty of legend).

Explore more of the 14-acre estate, then take a quiet moment in the Meditation Garden, where Elvis now rests with members of his family. Step aboard Elvis’s custom jet, then wrap things up at Elvis Presley’s Memphis Entertainment Complex, where the story keeps rolling.

Think of this as your backstage pass to Nashville. The Attraction Pass lets you line up some of the city’s greatest hits in advance, saving money and leaving you free to enjoy the show. There’s no rush either. The attractions don’t have to be done in a single day, so you can set your own tempo.

Start things off at Ole Smoky Moonshine Distillery, where you can sample moonshine, cocktails, and local beer by the glass, fuel up on crowd favourites like White Duck Taco and Prince’s Hot Chicken, and take home a jar or two for later. Nashville believes in souvenirs you can sip. Step into the spotlight at Madame Tussauds Nashville, an interactive celebration of American music where legends past and present are always ready for a photo op. Then head to the Country Music Hall of Fame, where the story of country music unfolds through iconic instruments, costumes, and moments that shaped two centuries of sound. Go deeper behind the music with a visit to historic RCA Studio B, once home to recording greats like Elvis Presley, Chet Atkins, Eddy Arnold, and the Everly Brothers. Prefer ink to vinyl? Opt instead for Hatch Show Print, the legendary letterpress poster shop that has been hand-printing Nashville’s look for generations. To tie it all together, hop aboard the Old Town Trolley for a one-day hop-on, hop-off tour that lets you see the city at street level, with stories included and walking optional. Finish on a high note at either the Johnny Cash Museum, home to the most comprehensive collection of artefacts from the Man in Black’s life, or the Patsy Cline Museum, a heartfelt tribute to one of country music’s most unforgettable voices.

With one ticket, you’ll visit two museums that make a very strong case for why so much of the world’s music seems to trace back to this city. Begin at the Memphis Music Hall of Fame, a lively, ever-changing space that tells the story straight from the source. You’ll see personal, sometimes unexpected memorabilia from the artists who put Memphis on the map and hear their stories in their own words.

Elvis is here, of course, along with B.B. King, Howlin’ Wolf, Johnny Cash, and Justin Timberlake, proof that Memphis doesn’t belong to just one era. Stand next to Jerry Lee Lewis’s custom Cadillac, admire Isaac Hayes’s legendary Stax organ, and test how well you really know those lyrics you’ve been singing for years.

Then head to the Memphis Rock ‘n’ Soul Museum, created by the Smithsonian Institution and located beside the FedEx Forum. This gives you the big picture. Through music, film, and sound, it charts how artists pushed past racial and social boundaries to create rock and soul and change the world while they were at it. The journey runs from rural blues and early gospel to the rise of Sun, Stax, and Hi Records, and on to Memphis’s global influence today.

A rich digital audio guide, packed with songs, stories, and behind-the-scenes moments, leads you through seven galleries filled with instruments, costumes, and archival footage.
