5.00It was so great. Scott was an awesome guide. He knew so much about everything having to do with Nashville. In addition, I was even able to get some vegan treats which going on the tour I didn't think would happen (I figured my husband would eat my share if not). We went to Red's, Martin's, five daughters, and we got a lesson on distilling when we first arrived. Such a great purchase.
Well worth it!

5.00This was a great experience. We had Scott as a tour guide and he was excellent. Very informative about Nashville's history, people, buildings, food etc. We did this at 10am our first day and were so glad we did. Got lots of information regarding where to go, park, drive, eat and things we would have never known like what's proper etiquette for tipping the bands, musicians etc who don't get paid but rely solely on the tips. We would highly recommend and I hope everyone gets Scott... although maybe the other tour guides are as good.
Great experience and good...

5.00Scott the guide was excellent with great knowledge about Nashville, took us to places you’d never normally go to. Was also very good at linking the history and stories to where the group came from be it USA or UK. Food was good got to places you’d never normally end up at. Worth going, recommended.
Good tour guide for tour with just enough food

5.00We have been on many food tours around the world (probably about 25) and it is important to balance having enough but not excessive tasty food, having an interesting tour guide, and having interesting things to see in the city. This one was above average in the first two and about average in the third. The food consisted of two dessert items (donuts and cupcakes), two savory items (hot chicken and bbq) and two alcoholic beverages. Everything tasted good and the quantity was just enough to be satisfying. Our tour guide, Red, was very good at her job. She was enthusiastic and told interesting anecdotes about the city. It was nice that there was a van that took us from place to place because it was only about 50 degrees outside. The city itself is nice enough, with a lot of music related sites, but not very visually interesting with few exceptions. We were never bored but a few years from now, I probably won’t remember much about the city.
Poor Tour

2.00Food stops were just ok.....not great. One stop was not open so off we went to another. No time to enjoy the different parts of the city or the time at our stops. Spent alot of time in the van. Definitely not what we expected and definitely not worth the money.
Our tour guide for today...
