Smoky Mountains: Moonshine Guided Distillery Crawl｜United States

Meet your Spirit Guide and climb aboard The Crawler, a 16-seat party bus built for exactly one thing — touring the Smoky Mountains' distillery corridor the fun way.

Before you roll, you'll pick your route. Mix it up with a sampling across spirits distilleries, or keep it themed with a Wine, Cider, or Whiskey Crawl. Most groups choose the Official Moonshine Crawl — the fan favorite.

Once you're moving, the ride itself is part of the experience. Wraparound seating turns the space between stops into a dancefloor-on-wheels — music up, your crew facing each other, no one stuck staring at a headrest. As you cruise, your Spirit Guide shares local stories about the distilleries, the moonshine history behind the Smokies, and a few things you won't find in any guidebook.

You'll make a minimum of 4 distillery crawls — and if time allows, a 5th. At each one, you'll step off the bus to:

Taste a lineup of pours on-site, poured fresh at the distillery
On occasion, even go behind the scenes for a look at how the spirits are made.
Meet the makers and soak up the local flavor

Best of all, your tastings are included — no digging for cash at every stop. Just step off, sip, and enjoy.

After tasting & time for shopping, then it's back on The Crawler and on to the next stop, with your Spirit Guide keeping the energy up and the timing smooth — never rushed, never dragging.

Expect 4 - 4.5 hours on the road across your stops. Whether it's a bachelor party, a bachelorette weekend, a birthday, or just a group ready to see the Smokies right, this is the one bus in town built specifically for it.
