Things NOT to Do When Visiting Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, Tennessee (With Attraction Prices)

Planning a trip to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, Tennessee? Avoid common tourist pitfalls with our guide on things NOT to do, complete with attraction prices. We'll help you make the most of your visit by steering clear of these overrated and overpriced attractions.
- Jungle Ride: This outdated attraction promises an adventurous ride through a jungle, but fails to deliver an exciting experience. The animatronics are old and the effects are lackluster, making it not worth the ticket price of $12.
- Ober Gatlinburg: While it may seem like a must-visit, Ober Gatlinburg often disappoints with long lines and high prices. The attractions, including the aerial tramway and skiing, don't justify the steep cost of $25 for a basic ticket, with additional fees for activities.
- Earthquake the Ride: This ride simulates an earthquake, but the experience is underwhelming and far from realistic. With a price tag of $10, it's better to save your money for a more thrilling adventure.
- Gatlinburg Sky Needle: Despite its promise of panoramic views, the Sky Needle fails to impress due to its limited visibility and overpriced tickets at $15. There are better, more scenic vantage points in the area that offer free or cheaper access.
- Hollywood Star Car Museum: Featuring cars from famous movies and TV shows, this museum might appeal to die-hard fans, but the $20 admission fee feels steep considering the small size and limited number of exhibits.
Join us as we explore these tourist traps and provide honest reviews to help you plan a more enjoyable and cost-effective trip to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Save your time and money for the attractions that truly offer unforgettable experiences!

Jurassic boat ride is cheesy fun!

[@LanceDean]

At least with Ober Mountain you *can* drive to the top instead of paying to ride the tram up and down. But to me, the tram ride is the best part. 😂

[@CampChaosRV]

The tram ride up is the only thing it’s got going for them, we agree.

Hello from Gatlinburg.. yes... you're right

[@myshirt84]

Saw you guys in Corpus Christi Texas on Sunday.

[@shanonlewis3774]

These are the type of videos I want to see. I would like to put my money towards something that is actually worth it. Went to wonderworks last year, it’s overly priced with way too many people. Worst money spent last year.

[@pointnozzleaway]

we just came home from Gatlinburg yesterday. I think we pretty much avoided all the attractions you mentioned.

[@L-ni8yu]

Hi, I saw your RV in Mustang Island as you were driving by! Looked you up on TH-cam as soon as I got home. Can’t wait to see your vlog!

[@CampChaosRV]

Awesome! Thank so much!

[@solotraveler3]

I'm planning my second trip to the area. Your video is so helpful. I'm glad I skipped Ober on my last trip and will avoid it this one. The only one I kinda want to see is the Jurassic ride - but wow it's expensive.

[@TheGatlinburgHussey]

Hello from Gatlinburg

[@kenjepsen4579]

You guys passed me somewhere between Houston and Nashville. (I don't remember where lol) like the content. :)

[@mikespeaks6038]

I was hoping you would put earth quake on here.

[@craigpringle5937]

[@CampChaosRV]

[@TheGatlinburgHussey]

[@TheGatlinburgHussey]
