Bristol. Is it Virginia or is it Tennessee…YEP, you’re correct! It just depends which side of State Street you’re standing on!  During our short time in Bristol, you can visit The Birthplace of Country Music Museum, or take in a self-guided walking tour of Historic Downtown, a certified Main Street USA community.

    After a restful night and breakfast, it’s off to Nashville, where we’ll settle in for a few nights at the spectacular Gaylord Opryland Hotel!  While there, we’ll take in the sights & sounds of the Music City, home of the Grand Ole Opry, Country Music Hall of Fame, RCA Studio B and the Ryman Auditorium! 

Next, it’s on to Memphis, the “City of Blues, Soul & Rock n’ Roll”, along the Mississippi River in Southwest Tennessee, for 2 nights. Our stay here will be at Drury Horn Lake. Learn all about Memphis with a sightseeing tour, the famous Sun Studios, an ”Elvis Experience” at Graceland, and a free evening will be yours to explore Beale Street.

Our last stop we’ll experience a slower pace, in a relaxing part of Tennessee.  The Greystone Lodge in Gatlinburg is where we’ll call home for our last 2 nights.  While there, we’ll breath in the fresh mountain air & watch for wildlife, as we ride through Great Smoky Mountains National Park with our guide.  And no trip to Gatlinburg would be complete without experiencing the music & attractions of Dollywood!  This family-friendly amusement park, nestled in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, offers something for every age, with over 40 rides, 15 exceptional shows daily & Southern-style dining at its best!  If you choose to ride or just take in the shows, keep your eyes open for Dolly herself!

On our way, we’ll make a stop in Shanksville, Pennsylvania at the Flight 93 Memorial, the site of the crash of United Flight 93, which was hijacked in the September 11 attacks.  Our time in the “Steel City” area will also include the Duquesne Incline, The Pennsylvania Trolley Museum, lunch at Angelo’s Restaurant & Dinner at The Grand Concourse!
