Bring your wallet. it's not because prices are out of line. it's because your kids will want to do everything. you will too. but don't panic. the Smoky mountains National park is. well. off the fricking hook. and you are basically in it and when the wallet runs thin this park is second to NONE. PS- ITS FREE and it is the most visited park in the USA for a reason. find out why! Been there done that. WE'LL BE BACK. it's soooooo beautiful. I love this wonderful place! Crowds can be tough during peak seasons so plan accordingly

Parking is $20 in most places in Gatlinburg as of September 2022, when I last visited. The trolley is great though in my opinion. You can park for free at the Gatlinburg Welcome Center and ride into Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg. The drivers are super helpful and friendly if you are not sure where you need to get off. They are ADA friendly too. equipped with a lift. A tip: If you need the lift, park on the lower level at the Welcome Center for Pick Up.

Our Gatlinburg 2023 video premiering June 11th at 7: 15est, will be even far better than this video. Will show all the new things happening in this great Mountain City. There will actually be 2 videos, the 1st of downtown Gatlinburg, and the 2nd of Greater Gatlinburg that will show Smoky Mtn Deer Farm, Cades Cove & Roaring Fork Nature Trails, Wears Valley, Tubing, and so much more.

Yep, spent 3 days in the area last week! Most of the tourist had the decency to stay in town! Congestion, high prices for lodging, restaurants! Almost as bad as Myrtle Beach! Another idealistic place ruined by developers to draw yuppies in and ruin the natural atmosphere!

You should have said something about Clingmans Dome at the top of the mountain. It's about 45 minute to hour drive but it's free and worth the drive. FYI it's best to go first thing in the morning around 8am because of the parking. The view is amazing though.

If you go to Gatlinburg, there is NO place to park. You must park in the parking garages ($15) or you will be towed ($100 miniman. Watch the no parking signs. most of the lots are employee only. I always wanted to go, but not any more

Capitalism destroyed this nice beautiful town. Look at pictures right before it went to shit, circa 1982 and before. The remains of this great beauty have been covered up with food chains and tourist traps which don't belong.

Grew up less than 2 hours from the place. Been there many times including worked at River Terrace when I was 21. Great place but has got way too crowded for me anymore. I started going in the 1970’s

Local hillbilly here giving advice that sadly should not have to be said. Do not pet nor take selfies with the wildlife. They may eat you, it's happened before.

It was impossible listening to this guy’s voice. And the whole pet friendly thing was highly annoying. No one wants to eat in a restaurant with your dog.

I recognize the roads use as escape routes from the fires. A little strange feeling but the green growth brings a sense of peace.

Downtown Gatlinburg and especially Pigeon Forge are so dumpy and commercialized. If I want this I’d go to Ocean City Maryland.

Great video but seeing two people fall out of the blue raft and the others frantically pulling them in was not very encouraging!
