  • Thursday, September 17, 2020

Despite world travel being put on hold, Tripadvisor, the world’s largest travel platform, announced this year’s Travelers’ Choice winners. The 18th annual Travelers’ Choice Awards recognized The Lookout Mountain Incline Railway as a winner. 

“The Travelers’ Choice program is one way that travelers and diners can benefit from the real-life experiences of other people so they can plan their perfect trip that meets their needs, budget, and style,” said Lindsay Nelson, chief of experience and brand officer at Tripadvisor.

Each year, Tripadvisor combs through reviews, ratings, and saves from travelers everywhere and uses that information to award the very best.

The Travelers’ Choice Award recognizes businesses that earn consistently great user reviews. Travelers’ Choice winners are among the top 10% of all listings worldwide.

“We are very excited to be recognized by such a great online travel partner as Tripadvisor during these interesting times,” said Lisa Maragnano, executive director of CARTA.  “The staff at the Incline has been focused on the safety and health of our passengers.  Each day we strive to deliver a great customer service experience so our customers can spread the word about our unique attraction,” she added.

The Lookout Mountain Incline Railway is Chattanooga's oldest tourism attraction and is located at the base of Lookout Mountain in St. Elmo. It is operated by CARTA, the Chattanooga Area Regional Transportation Authority and is celebrating its 125th anniversary in this year.  Tickets and information are available at ridetheincline.com.
