15 Best Things To Do in Chattanooga, Tennessee

Picture of Chattanooga, Tennessee

About Chattanooga


Often ranked as one of the best tourist spots in the US, Chattanooga is a beautiful concoction of outdoor adventures and city charm. While the riverfront and the mountains are a delight for nature lovers, the art escape and restaurants in the city are frequented by those who enjoy art.

More importantly, the city has something you’re hardly bound to find elsewhere: the Chattanooga Ghost Tours. These are ranked among the top ten tours in the country and go to the city’s downtown region where the guides will claim you can see ghosts and talk to them.

And if the spook doesn’t wear off, head over to the Jack Daniels distillery, which is the oldest in the country, and enjoy a Whiskey tasting.
