For such a popular tourist destination, Tennessee has disappointing
transportation
connections. Amtrak only calls at Memphis, and while Greyhound provides a reasonable service to major towns and cities, traveling by bus through the small towns in the east is very difficult. The
airports
at Memphis and Nashville have extensive connections throughout the US, though fares between the two are high. If you harbor fantasies of traveling by
boat
along the Mississippi, note that only luxury craft make the trip these days, at prohibitive prices.
