Frequently Asked Questions

On the Tennessee River, steps from downtown and right beside the Tennessee Aquarium. You come ashore in the middle of the action, with no shuttle and no wait.
Both. American Cruise Lines uses it as a start or end point for its Nashville itineraries, so the call often plays out as a full day devoted to the city.
The aquarium early on, then the Walnut Street pedestrian bridge across to Coolidge Park, and if time allows, the Lookout Mountain incline. The whole downtown is walkable from the dock.
A waterfront aquarium recognisable by its two glass pyramids, which triggered the rebirth of the entire riverfront. Its route follows the water from Appalachian streams down to the Gulf. Families easily spend two hours there.
One of the longest pedestrian bridges in the world. Its wooden deck crosses the river with a slight sway and leads to Coolidge Park, its lawns and its antique carousel.
By the Incline Railway, a historic funicular climbing one of the steepest grades of its kind. The mountain is about fifteen minutes' drive south of downtown, and shore excursions run there regularly.
Because it was a major Southern rail hub, immortalised by the song Chattanooga Choo Choo. The historic station of the same name is a few streets from the dock.
US dollars and English. Cards are accepted everywhere; keep cash for tipping, standard practice in the United States.
Spring and fall. Tennessee summers are hot and humid, while October colours over Lookout Mountain and the valley are worth the trip.
Very much so. The aquarium, the Coolidge Park carousel, the bridge that sways underfoot and the funicular ride follow one another without transport and without dead time.
