Hello everyone, hope you are doing well, It's been a while since I last wrote and posted and I'm sorry, it's been a really busy life lately as a married women. But I'm loving every step of the way. For our honeymoon we decided to go to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee and it was the best decision, it was so fun. If you don't know where to go for your honeymoon and you live in Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina or close to Tennessee or you just want somewhere quiet, peaceful but with so many options of entertainment for your honeymoon then this Itinerary is for you.
*IT WAS MY HUSBAND WHO PLANNED EVERYTHING, I'M JUST GOING TO SHARE WITH YOU WHAT WE DID*
PLACES TO VISIT (ENTERTAINMENT)
1. Titanic Museum Attraction:
I loved visiting this museum. If you love the titanic movie, this is a must place to visit. This Titanic museum is a half-scale, ship-shaped housing over 400 authentic artifacts across twenty galleries. The attraction centers on honoring the passengers and crew by telling their personal stories. When you enter you are going to receive a reproduction boarding pass featuring the name, biography, and class of a real passenger or crew member. At the end of the chronological tour, guests check the memorial wall to learn whether their assigned passenger or crew member survived. I died, but my husband lived, lol.. But for real, it was a beautiful tour but also so emotional.
2. Parrot Mountain and Gardens:
I loved petting the parrots, you actually feel like you are in a Eden Garden, it was so beautiful and one of my favorite things we did, it really has a quiet and enchanting atmosphere. It is home of hundreds of tropical and exotic birds, including macaws, cockatoos, toucans, lorikeets, and hornbills, housed in open air. Something I loved is that many of these birds are free, flying or roaming, or trained to perch on hands, talk, and interact directly with you.
3. Smoky Mountain Deer Farm & Exotic Petting Zoo:
This amazing and cute farm is a 140-acre family owned in Sevierville, Tennessee. It offers a open air barnyard where visitators can walk directly among the deer's and hand feed them. The farm also houses camels, zebras, zonkeys, Rocky Mountain elk, reindeer, emus, Highland cattle, ostriches, tiny horses, and baby goats, they're so cute. I loved feeding the deer. Something I loved from this farm is that it feels cozy and so relaxing. When you enter they sell the feeding and the apples, and everything is really affordable. It actually is a hidden gem, 10/10 recommended.
4. The Island:
The Island in Pigeon Forge is a 23 acre open air entertainment, shopping and didning complex. Currently is featurirng a free Jurasisc Adventure event with 22 life-sized animatronic dinosaurs roaming the property. Personally I love dinosaurs so I loved just walking around the whole "Island" that was my biggest entertainment. But there's so many options for those free-open minded people that loves doing "free spirit" things, like the "SkyFly" or the "Island Ropes Course".
PLACES TO EAT:
1. Frizzle Chicken Cafe:
This place I actually loved it, it was so unique and so fun. It is a whimsical, family friendly, breakfast place famous for its entertainment cast over 100 animatronic, singing chickens with celebrity inspired puns for names (like, Dolly PartHen). What they serve is not just entertainment but also traditional homestyle southern style favorites like biscuits and gravy, homemade omelets, and chicken and waffles. Their service is fast and friendly, plus the prices are so fair and affordable. 10/10.
2. Spice Express Indian Kitchen:
I love Indian food but finding "good indian food" in the south is hard. But this place it's definitely a hidden gem that eveyone should know about. It serves bold and authentic flavors of indian food and a wide variety of classic dishes. Their service is friendly, quiet and attentive. I felt so welcomed and relaxed, I loved everything that I tried there. 10/10.
3. Local Goat:
I personally loved the food and the experience I had in Local Goat. I want to clarify that when I posted a review of this restaurant in TikTok showing how much I loved it, I received many negative comments about this place but I would say it's mostly because many people didn't know well what they were ordering or they went in rush hours and their food wasn't what they expected, plus everyone has different opinons. But me, I have nothing negative to say about this place. I loved their onion rings, and burgers, also their lava cake it was "perfection" it tasted so smooth and strong not too sweet, which is something that I love. Eveything tasted so fresh and unique and that's because they make about 99% of their items in house daily, including fresh baked bread, burger patties, onion rings, even the ketchup. They elevate classic comfort foods with creative twists, offering items like fried deviled eggs with bacon jam, bison meatloaf, dry aged steaks and gourmet burgers. 10/10 you'll have to try it yourself.
