Fun Day

A nice day trip outside Nashville before a flight after 7:00 pm. We wanted to see another part of greater Nashville area and be outdoors. This was a perfect solution. Eat at the Frankllin Mercantile deli, grab a cookie then explore the main streets of this beautiful little town. Tour includeds three historical sites.

History a short ride form downtown Nashville

Very enjoyable day. Our guide with Grey Line tours was extremely knowledgeable not only about the history of the site but surrounding area as well. He was able to point out sites of interest during our ride. The tour guides at each home were also very knowledgeable and made the tour interesting. Transportation was clean and comfortable. Highly recommend this tour.
