Out and About in Tuscaloosa

If you're in Tuscaloosa to tailgate for a Crimson Tide game, then your morning (and afternoon) is spoken for. But if you happen into the city on a non-game day, the university campus is still a great place for a morning walk. Book a Tuscaloosa vacation package and you might just get the chance to see what the stadium looks like without 102,000 people inside. If you're traveling with little ones, then a trip to the Children's Hands-On Museum is a must. And, as the site of a Native American mound city, the Moundville Archaeological Site is well worth the short trip south of town. Just ask at any of the hotels in Tuscaloosa for directions. Then, you can relax on the water with a river boat cruise to finish the day.

Eating and Drinking

You're in the deep South, so it's time to eat like it. If you're fortunate enough to tailgate a college football game, you'll find loads of slathered ribs on the grill while you navigate between shouts of "Roll Tide!" and rounds of cornhole. If not, fear not. The Tuscaloosa River Walk is home to more BBQ joints than you can shake a stick at. Not to mention, it's a beautiful place for a stroll.
