5.00In February 2026 my husband and I spent three days in Nashville. We visited The Grand Ole Opry, The Country Music Hall of Fame/RCA Studio B Tour, the Ryman Auditorium and The Bluebird Cafe. They were all wonderful and must-do's, but there is a lot more to see in Nashville. We read about Steven Whitson's VIP tour of Nashville and after reading the outstanding reviews we booked it. Now we are among the many people who sing Steven's praises. Steven contacted us soon after we booked. He confirmed our booking, made himself available to answer questions and gave us some great restaurant recommendations. He also gave great tips that allowed us to successfully book tickets to The Bluebird Cafe. Soon after we arrived in Nashville Steven contacted us to welcome us and confirm the arrangements to pick us up at our hotel. On the day of our tour he arrived early, he had bottled water and local treats waiting for us in his vehicle, and he gave us a very warm welcome. We felt immediately like we were going to be spending the afternoon with a friend. Steven is a singer-songwriter. He knows Nashville very well and gave us a greater understanding of the city and the music industry. We extended our tour from two hours to three, in order to fit in everything we wanted to see. Steven took us around the downtown area, stopping in the area around Broadway/Honky Tonk row to share stories and give us some history of the area. We got to see the Bicentennial Park, the Capital, Music Row, The Gulch, the Parthenon, Belmont University and the 12th Ave South strip of shops and restaurants. A very special stop along the way was at Marathon Village. It is a very interesting and historical place. We did tastings at a distillery there and Steven took us into a room that had vintage Marathon automobiles in it. He said the room had great acoustics, grabbed his guitar from his car, and sang a song to Brian and I in celebration of our 42 years of marriage. It was beautiful and we will never forget it. When our three hours with Steven came to an end we were sorry to say goodbye. If you are planning a trip to Nashville and want to really experience Nashville, book a tour with Steven. You will be very happy with your decision.
Bless your heart!

5.00We had an amazing and truly educational trip around Nashville with talented singer-songwriter Steven Whitson as our guide. It was such a unique experience to explore the city through the eyes of someone who lives and breathes music and also happen to be a remarkable person and singer! We didn’t just see the typical landmarks — we learned the stories behind the songs, the history of the songwriting community, and what really makes Nashville “Music City.” Hearing personal insights about the industry, creative process, and local music scene made everything come alive in a way no ordinary tour could. It felt authentic, inspiring, and incredibly engaging from start to finish. If you want more than just sightseeing and truly want to understand the heart of Nashville’s music culture, this is the experience to book. Highly recommend! Thank you Steve for all the details and goodies!
Absolutely outstanding!

5.00We had an incredible experience thanks to our tour guide. From the very beginning, he was personable, welcoming, and genuinely excited to show us around. It never felt like a scripted tour—more like being shown around town by a knowledgeable local who actually loves what he does. He shared great stories, pointed out spots we never would’ve found on our own, and made sure everyone felt included and comfortable. The pacing was perfect, and he was happy to answer questions or adjust things based on what we were interested in. He shared his amazing voice while playing the guitar, which gave the tour an added touch of class. This tour ended up being one of the highlights of our trip, and a big reason for that was him. If you’re on the fence—book it. You won’t regret it.
