Thinking about gifting the Chattanooga Blues to Bridges tour!

I’m considering this walking tour for my parents’ anniversary next month. They love exploring new places but they’re not super adventurous. I like that this one is self-paced, so they can take their time. Has anyone done it? Any tips for making it more special?

Just finished the walking tour and loved it!

I just completed the Chattanooga Blues to Bridges tour last weekend and it was such a cool experience! The Bessie Smith Cultural Center is a fantastic starting point. It felt great to walk through downtown and learn about all the history. The app worked perfectly, and I loved being hands-free. Highly recommend it for a chill day out!
