Fantastic Tour - We had the best time on this tour! Our tour guide Scott was incredibly knowledgeable with the area and a lot of fun to hang out with! Food was amazing and the sizes were just right, we weren’t hungry after but also not incredibly stuffed! Highly recommend booking this when in Nashville!

Taste of Nashville Sightseeing tour. - Red was a fantastic tour guide. She brought us to all the best parts of downtown Nashville. Centennial Park, Red's Hot Chicken, Christy Cookie, Martin's BBQ. She was very knowledgeable about her tour. Excellent sense of humor. Ask for a private tour with her. You won't be disappointed.

a positive & pleasant intro to Nashville - We got off to a slow start, our first two stops didn’t pan out (weren’t open, or weren’t open yet). But Clark managed to remain calm, and the rest of the tour improved quickly. His narrative was clear and easy to understand and the places we stopped to eat the various foods were all interesting and tasty. The participants were all very cordial so that made for a positive and pleasant experience since we were sharing tables with them at the local establishments.
We are going back to some of these locations again during the rest of our vacation to Nashville. Thank you, Clark

An easy access dive into Nashville. - A great look into the history of Nashville with some tastes along the way. Our guide Sean was informative and affable. Only complaint is the tour featured five tastings, two of which were small desserts and one was a whiskey tasting, so don’t come starving if you wanna survive three hours.
