Guided Voyager updates destination guidance regularly, but hours, weather, access, and reservations should be checked close to departure.

Before you go

Use the live details that matter

  • Do not treat Uptown, South End, NoDa, and the Whitewater Center as one walkable district. Choose one or two zones per day.
  • Carowinds is a complete day, not a quick add-on to a city itinerary.

Confirm current access, hours, reservations, and conditions with Official NASCAR Hall of Fame information.
