Well done Scott

Simon_D, Mar 2026
Scott the guide was excellent with great knowledge about Nashville, took us to places you’d never normally go to. Was also very good at linking the history and stories to where the group came from be it USA or UK. Food was good got to places you’d never normally end up at. Worth going, recommended.

Poor Tour

Ted_S, Mar 2026
Food stops were just ok.....not great. One stop was not open so off we went to another. No time to enjoy the different parts of the city or the time at our stops. Spent alot of time in the van. Definitely not what we expected and definitely not worth the money.

Our tour guide for today...

Kathy_H, Mar 2026

History, Food and Fun

Scott was full of amazing stories regarding Nashville. The places he took us to see Nashville through food taught us so much. I would suggest Scott to show anyone and everyone to see Nashvilleat it's finest.

What a great tour!

jane_a, Mar 2026
We had a great time! Scott was knowledgeable and full of fun histories and back stories of Nashville. The food stops were wonderful!

Good intro to city, okay food offering

Anita_G, Mar 2026
Evan was a good tour guide and provided a lot of information about the city and its history as we moved about the city. The food was good but, for the money, not generous. I was expecting a biscuit offering and perhaps iced tea or soft drink with the entree offerings. Again, what we had was fine, just somewhat sparse.

Very good tour, takes you...

Awesome Time!!

Marisol_R, Mar 2026
Showed up solo, walked away full of food, drinks, information, and new connections. Proof that going alone doesn’t mean being alone.

Fun, informative, and yummy

sandy, Mar 2026
YUM! Does it get any better than learning about Nashville with historical facts and anecdotal stories, and then in between stories, eat a delicious treat? The BBQ spot we stopped at was wonderful. I consider myself a connoisseur of spare ribs. These were the BEST I have ever eaten! AND the restaurant was selected by Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Guy did not make a mistake selecting this BBQ placed to showcase a taste of Nashville BBQ. Our guide Evan was delightful, informative, fun, and wanting to please. Kudos to him for making our tour perfect!

Great tour of the town...

Lindley_S, Feb 2026
Great tour of the town and 4 or 5 fun eating places. Very much recommend. Red was a fantastic tour guide!! The best!

Delicious Tour

Denise_G, Feb 2026
It was fun and interesting! Evan was informative and entertaining. We had lots of good snacks and got to see lots of Nashville.

Excellent Foodie Tour

Brian_S, Feb 2026
You get a great tour of Nashville besides sampling some great food. Each good was something unique, from alcohol infused doughnuts, to great bbq sampler, to being introduced to spicy chicken. And not in fancy restaurants, but one of a kind local establishments.

Great city tour and food!

Jean_D, Feb 2026
Fun and informative tour of the city of Nashville paired with great food! Loved the story of hot chicken and appreciated seeing neighborhoods outside of downtown area. Red our guide was knowledgeable and easy to spend time with. Would recommend!

Take the tour!

Tammy_H, Feb 2026
The tour was a blast! The food was delicious, and our guide, Evan, was great. We got a great introduction to the city, especially since it was our first time in Nashville and we were a bit lost. One of the highlights was a BBQ spot called Martins. We loved it so much that we went back the next day. If you ever find yourself in Nashville, I highly recommend taking this tour!

Great tour

Nehelia_J, Feb 2026
This was great! Small bus tour with our guide Evan. Bus was clean and comfortable. We went to some great gems in Nashville. Sweet and savory samples. Evan gave us great history and fun stories along the way. Overall we enjoyed this food tour.

Red is so fun and knowledgeable about the city! We loved getting to know the areas of Nashville that aren’t all tourist spots but the heart of the people who live here

Fun way to celebrate a milestone Birthday!

Kelly_M, Jan 2026
We booked the tour not knowing what a barge is AND couldn’t be happier with our experience. Hunter, our guide and driver, was awesome. He took as to the best murals in the City, was very nice and just so happened to be an amazing photographer. Our pictures turned out great! Highly recommend booking, for a FUN birthday weekend!
