Chattanooga’s Rydables Tour from Trains to Bridges

Step back in time and uncover the fascinating stories of Chattanooga on our 1.5-hour Rydable History Tour! Riding one of our fun, stuffed-animal scooters—whether it’s a unicorn, dragon, or elephant—you’ll experience the perfect blend of joy, adventure, and education. This tour is ideal for families, history buffs, and anyone ready to see the city in a whole new way. We’ll begin at our office located at 707 Cherry St in Downtown Chattanooga. After a brief training we will pass through art alleys, past post Civil War era buildings on our way to the Tennessee Aquarium. From there, we’ll cross the iconic Walnut Street Bridge, one of the longest pedestrian and bike bridges in the country. Take in breathtaking views of the Tennessee River, Lookout Mountain, and the city skyline as we pause for unforgettable photo opportunities. We will pass through the Bluff View Arts district and head towards the Big 9, a historic African American neighborhood. We will pass by the Bessie Smith Center.

Just did the Rydables Tour in Chattanooga, and it was amazing!

I went on the Rydables Tour last weekend with my family, and we had such an awesome time! Riding those scooters around downtown was a blast. We saw the art alleys and the Tennessee Aquarium, plus crossing the Walnut Street Bridge was like a scene out of a movie. The guide shared some cool history about the area too. It's perfect for anyone who wants a fun way to learn about Chattanooga!

Thinking about gifting the Rydables Tour - any tips?

I’m considering buying the Rydables Tour experience for my sister’s family. They’ve got two kids (9 and 11). Do you think it's good for their age? Also, what’s the experience like? I’m hoping it's not too strenuous since the kids aren’t super active.
