About
At Smoky Mountain Drives we organize driving adventures where like minded car enthusiasts can drive through the gorgeous scenery and amazing roads of the Great Smoky Mountains, all while enjoying great company! The roads of Eastern Tennessee and Western North Carolina are destination drives where people travel from all over the world to explore this region. All of the major exotic car rallies have made this area their drive destination, as well as iconic manufacturers such as Lamborghini, Porsche and even Pagani. Being local to these Great Smoky Mountains allow us to provide value packed events where car enthusiasts from a variety of backgrounds are treated to driving events that are second to none! On our drives, there is nothing else to think about. We have done the planning, the route selection, the driving notes, identified fuel stops, found fantastic hotels and eating spots! All you need to do is show up and be prepared to drive!.
