Fodor's Expert Review River Gorge Explorer

Two of the most peaceful hours you'll spend outdoors in Chattanooga will be aboard this 70-passenger hydro-assisted catamaran that glides past the foot of Lookout Mountain and into the heart of the 26-mile Tennessee River Gorge, known affectionately as "Tennessee's Grand Canyon." Listen as a Tennessee Aquarium naturalist explains the geological and cultural history of the area, highlighting the delicate balance of human expansion into the environment shared with native flora and fauna. Angled seating inside the vessel allows you to relax in climate-controlled comfort as you view the remarkable scenery through the boat's expansive windows.
