Top Tennessee Bus Tours - page 4

We had a beautiful day out. The guide Sean was informative, engaging, and funny. He very much kept the children, from the other group, in the conversation and answered all thier questions. I would have liked a bit more Nashville history, which he did touch on a few times, especially after we mentioned certain things. He knows the history so be sure to ask if you want to know!

This is a unique way to see Memphis and experience its history with a live music accompaniment. Our guide Cecil (if my memory is correct) was fun and knowledgable, telling us things about the city that we didn’t learn in the museums. The best part is his musical accompaniment along the way singing and playing blues, rock, country and soul to help paint the picture. Can’t recommend this enough!

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.

Our tour guide Jack was great. He talked about different attractions, food eateries, and kept us laughing. The customer service at Tennessee Shine Co. was the best. All the staff was very courteous, willing to answer questions, and helped when needed. Big Sexy kept us laughing and having fun. He definitely sold us on the moonshine.

Great if you are short of time because you see and do a lot in one day. Especially liked the Rock and Soul Museum. All great except the vegetarian lunch was some chips and a little coleslaw. I bought beans for my friend so she would have something to eat.

This tour was perfect for what we wanted to try out a diverse offering of the spirits, cocktails and breweries in nashville. Jack was a great tour guide, he knew all about the places we were going and gave us the 411 on each of them while we were en route. Got to try everything from barrel aged bourbon, moon shine, to good local craft brews. Being with the group, we got ushered to the front of the lines, so it was a great way to navigate through the crowds. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful knowledgable guide Mary. Full of enthusiasm and information on the city, the music and the people. Lovely driver Michael too and a cute coach for the tour. There is a little assumed knowledge about certain people and American culture. Considering most people on the tour were from the US there were a few Brits(myself included) but that did not detract and she was always happy to answer questions. There are quite a few ‘pass bys’ of things to see which is fine on the whole. Start on Beale Strert with a bit of its history and talk about Handy Park. The stops that we made at Millionaires Row, Clayborn Temple ruins and the Lorraine Motel were excellent and a real chance to drink it all in. By pass of St Jude’s hospital, Mississippi River,The Memphis Cotton Exchange, Lauderdale Courts, Court Square ,The Orpheum Theatre AutoZone Park Baseball, Shelby County Courthouse, Calvary Episcopal Church And then a quick bite at Cental BBQ. I would have liked the chance to stop briefly at the river with the paddle steamers for those not adding on the river cruise and also Lauderdale Court to take a few photos. I think Sun Record Studios should have been on the included on the tour and I walked there afterwards but halfway along Beale Street, past the bars and restaurants the area, I felt, was a bit sketchy and wouldn’t recommend walking that way alone (I was told it was safe to walk). You can’t add on Civil Rights museum and the Rock and Soul Museum, it’s either or. My time was limited so as I said, walked to Sun Records and back down Union Street to the Peabody Hotel to see the ducks in the fountain and then back to the Rock & Roll museum and paid entry- which is cheaper than adding it into the tour with museum option and you can suit yourself time wise. Personally, I’d add on either museums separately after the tour if you want to do them.

The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the city. His name was Sam. He was polite and friendly with everyone on the tour! He made sure that everyone knew all about the city. It was personal for him and that made me feel good about returning back to Memphis in the future!
