Take a ride as we drive from the touristy town / gateway to the Smokies of Gatlinburg to Downtown Knoxville Tennessee. Our route takes us up through Pigeon Forge and Sevierville on US 441 / Parkway, to Winfield Dunn Pkwy then on Interstate 40. Just before getting on Interstate 40 we make a pit stop at the most busiest Bucee's I've ever seen.
