Gems

The following is a list of the most recent AAA Gems in Tennessee. These are tourist destinations that have AAA's highest recommendation. It's hard to go wrong when choosing to visit a Gem. Unfortunately, there is no longer an index list of Gems in AAA Tourbooks which is why this list was created.

Festivals and short term events usually include information about when they occur. Each city's location can be determined on the Maps page. Items listed in bold have already been visited by Mr. and Mrs. Mouse.
