Thinking about a vacation to Knoxville?

Knoxville, Tennessee is one of the best "bang for your buck" cities in the United States for your vacation, according to Hotwire.com's Travel Value Index.

Cities were rated for "deep discounts" and low prices on air travel and hotels, and for free or inexpensive attractions.

Attractions listed at Hotwire include a free trolley service that runs throughout downtown, culture and history, and over 100 free concerts a year at the University of Tennessee. All this surrounded by the Great Smoky, Blue Ridge and Cumberland Mountain Ranges and dozens of lakes and rivers!

Well, shucks. We could have told you all that! Let me suggest a vacation to Knoxville plan for you, or keep reading to kick-start your vacation plans to Knoxville.
