Authentic. Hilarious. All-Tennessee.

Hey Y’all, Let’s Hit the Backroads is a storytelling-driven itinerary series that invites you to slow down and explore South Central Tennessee like a local. Led by our Hey Y’all social media influencers and small business ambassadors, this series shares easy, one-day (and occasional two-day) itineraries built around real experiences—not rushed checklists.

​

Each Backroads itinerary focuses on a primary town, business, or attraction and pairs it with thoughtfully chosen local stops for eating, shopping, and exploring. The goal is simple: spend 3 to 6 meaningful hours discovering a place, meeting the people who make it special, and leaving with a deeper connection to the community.

​

These itineraries are evergreen, approachable, and designed for travelers who prefer courthouse squares over interstates, locally owned businesses over big chains, and experiences that feel authentic instead of overplanned. Whether you’ve got a free afternoon or you’re building a weekend around a small-town stop, Hey Y’all, Let’s Hit the Backroads shows you how to make the most of your time—one community at a time.

Don’t just Travel Tennessee… EXPERIENCE TENNESSEE.
