About Tour Guide Nataliya L.

Greetings fellow explorers!


I'm hoping you will choose me to show you around the beautiful place they call East Tennessee! I fell in love with TN many years ago when I used to travel for work. I moved here from Chicago about 5 years ago, and have learned the ins and outs of everything it has to offer. I have been to all 50 states, and could tell you some interesting things about every part of this diverse country.


Are you a foodie? I know the local spots for mouth watering dishes and deserts!

Do you like nature? This is the perfect place to discover some trails with epic views!

Want to go on a Moonshine tour? Let me take you to a few local distilleries that you won't find anywhere else in the country!


Let's wander together and make new memories!
