I give you a version of the city that some locals don’t know exist. In just two hours you will get to see the Tennessee river, gorgeous insights not normally traveled, the beginnings of Tennessee, and even where sports all started! The last Worlds Fair in the USA was held in this scruffy city and you will be a part of the reason why! I will also give the best recommendations to explore the real Tennessee! So you can be a tourist and local simultaneously.

We had a great time walking with Brandon. He offered a wealth of insight about the history of Knoxville and points of interest while also offering tips on what we can learn and experience about what the city offers visitors today. He took us through the Arts district, Gay St and Union Square with lots of circuitous stops and treats along the way. It was an easy walk. Two hours with a leisurely pace. Brandon was easy to get to know and fun to hang with. I recommend you orient yourself with a hometown tour like this if you are new to Knoxville or just visiting.

Tour was ok but very rushed. Done in 1/2 the allotted time and not worth the $80 for just one hour. It would have been nice to have a little sit down time for the coffee and ice cream.

My grand daughter and I spent the day doing the UT campus tour and then spent the evening with Darrell exploring and learning all about Knoxville. Darrell was a delight! His knowledge and personality made for a truly great experience. A must do when you visit Knoxville!
