5.00This tour was a nice way to see part of Nashville I probably wouldn’t have known about. We enjoyed lots of good food along the way and met some new people. Hunter knew lots of interesting info about architecture and food.
Best tour ever

5.00Nashville hot chicken, fried catfish tacos, bbq brisket, smash burgers, mini specialty donuts and more. We loved this tour! This was a tour lead by a very knowledgeable tour guide who lived in the neighborhood. Ben had lots of knowledge about the history of the east side of Nash and TN in general. He was a great storyteller. Besides visiting his selected food jaunts we also received a ton of recommendations for various food/drink establishments. We truly ate like a local. The food was amazing with a great variety! Would highly recommend this tour. You do walk between establishments. You’re on side walks and back alleys. Ben does stop frequently to give you some more history and details about the sites. Just FYI The terrain is slightly hilly. My 85 yr old father who walks with a cane would struggle with this trip. He’d eventually get there, but at a much slower pace, as we were walking at a good clip! I’m sure Ben would be kind enough to walk a slow pace if need be.
Hunter is the best.
