All of the humor in the Family Friendly Gatlinburg Comedy Tour is kid-friendly and PG-rated. The tour is open to guests of all ages, and young children are welcome.

Participants in the tour will enjoy free food and drink samples at many of the locations along the route. Everyone who signs up for the tour will also receive a complimentary discount card that can be used at lots of the stops.

About Alex Stokes

Alex Stokes jumped headfirst into the world of comedy after performing at his first open mic night in Knoxville, TN about 8 years ago. Leaving behind a 14-year career as an investment broker and banker, Stokes began touring the country as a stand-up comedian, making stops at the famous Comedy Store in Los Angeles and clubs in New York. Rather than moving to the big city like many other stand-ups, Alex decided to stay true to his roots and hone his comedy in Gatlinburg TN.

Stokes has authored five books: Messing With Tourists: Stupid Answers to Stupid QuestionsMessing With Tourists 2: Here We Go Again!, Messing With Tourists 3: Candy Bears and Awkward Stares, 5 Years Of This? Husband. Father. Comedian. My Story, and The City Bear In The Smokies (a children’s book). Messing With Tourists 3 is coming out late June of 2019 and continues sharing some of the crazy conversations that Alex has with tourists.

In addition to owning and operating Gatlinburg Comedy Tours, Stokes also teaches stand up comedy at the University of Tennessee.
