This is an intimate tour and overview of the intricate sites and neighborhoods of Nashville from the up-close perspective of a 30 plus year local resident & business owner, professional musician, historian, and former professional published and recorded songwriter. This is not a packed bus tour with a loudspeaker. You'll be able to ask questions and have a conversation with the guide, and see some of the hidden gems of Nashville you don't commonly see on corporate tours. You'll hear unique perspectives and stories you won't hear elsewhere. It's truly an unforgettable experience.

Choose to be picked up from a list of locations
I will pick you up at your hotel or AirBNB or a pre-determined agreed upon location and return you when the tour is done. My Toyota Highlander seats 4 passengers comfortably but can accommodate 6 with the backseat, although it is a little tight and harder to get into, but it's perfect for smaller adults or kids. If more than 6 are desired, we can rent a van for up to 12 or 15 at an extra cost. Typically they run $500-$600. Reach out if that's an interest.
