Thanks Cody for a Snap Shot of Nashville history & present!

Cody did an excellent job catering the walking tour to our groups interests. Not easy to do with strangers you just met with a variety of backgrounds. But he did a great job incorporating all our interests. Even recommend places to shop and eat (affordable too:)

Nashville's Ghost Bus: A True Crime Ride Along Haunted Tour

Diana_A, Jun 2026

Ghost Stories with best your guide Matt

We joined the 8:00 PM tour with our guide Matt, who kept everyone engaged from start to finish. The mix of history and storytelling was exactly what we were hoping for. We hopped on and off the bus at several locations, and each stop added something different to the night. Printer’s Alley was a fascinating stop, and the ghost stories connected to the State Capitol were some of my favorites. I was a little disappointed we couldn’t go inside the cemetery to see the older burials, but the rest of the tour made up for it. Our bus was completely full, so I recommend booking early. The visit to the site of the Christmas Day bombing was a chilling reminder of the destruction and how much the surrounding buildings were affected. The only downside was a group of teenagers who got loud and giggly near the end of the tour, and we couldn’t hear the final story Matt was telling. Several people around us missed it too, which was disappointing. Even so, two hours wasn’t enough. My husband and I loved every minute and easily could’ve gone another two hours — though a bathroom break would’ve been appreciated, since there are none on the route. A memorable, atmospheric tour that we’d happily do again.

East Nashville Walking Food Tour

We had a wonderful time on the East Nashville Food Tour! Colleen was energetic, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. We enjoyed visiting all five stops and appreciated the variety of food selections offered along the way. The pace was perfect for a walking tour, even on a hot and humid day. Colleen also went above and beyond by making herself available to answer questions via text after the tour ended. Thanks to her recommendations, we'll definitely be returning to East Nashville to explore more of the restaurants, bars, and local spots she suggested. Highly recommend this tour to both visitors and locals looking to discover the neighborhood's food scene!

Tiffany was awesome

Tiffany is an absolute force of nature. Part history professor and part professional hype woman, she navigated the chaotic Broadway traffic with one finger on the wheel while dropping local bar facts Tiffany made sure we saw everything worth seeing without having to walk a single step.

Had to leave early, but still had a lovely time

Our tour guide was very kind and an excellent orator. There was a woman who had a stroller and was struggling with the stairs. He made sure she didn’t have to carry it until we were back on flat ground. During the tour I started to feel ill and my friend and I had to leave the tour abruptly. Hopefully he sees this review and knows we did very much enjoy ourselves while we were there!

Fun experience away from the loud Broadway scene

This is a fun, short walking tour. Millie was the sweetest guide with lots of helpful travel tips for food, shopping and entertainment. Some the coolest off the beaten path photo spots.... and we ran into the lead singer of the band switchfoot just sitting on a bench followed by a 99% sure Dolly sighting leaving her studio. We aren't the photogenic type but Millie made us feel very confident.

Nashville's Dark Secrets: Haunted True Crime Ghost Tour

Ashley_A, Mar 2026

Fun, informative, and accommodating

It was very fun and informative! We originally got the walking tour but because it was cold and windy they upgraded us to the bus tour. Which was cool, but i think the walking would have been more fun and hands on with the investigation aspect. But It was cold so no complaints on that change. The rods were the coolest aspect of this, besides the history. We had a few hits with them and that was cool! I’m still skeptical but my sister loved it and still believes so. The bar we met at was like a college bar and the drinks were fine, but i did hate it lol. Overall, the experience was something i would do again on a better wether day and maybe with more people too!

Qualifying as one of my best walking tours in the world..

Little Local Flavor Walking Tour with Genevieve Wear your comfortable walking shoes, arrive hungry, and don't skip the drinks, because you're going to want to indulge along the way. Our guide Genevieve was the absolute highlight of the experience. A true Nashville native, she brought an unmistakable pride and passion to every stop along our roughly 3-mile journey through downtown. She wasn't just reciting facts — she was sharing her city, her stories, and her love for the culture and community that make Nashville so special. What set Genevieve apart was her rare combination of wit, charm, and genuine warmth. She kept the group laughing, engaged, and well-fed the entire time. Whether you're a first-time visitor or someone who thinks they already know Nashville, she'll show you something new. Little Local Flavor delivers exactly what its name promises — an authentic, flavorful taste of Nashville through the eyes of someone who truly calls it home. Absolutely worth every step.
