Duncan was an awesome tour guide! Very knowledgeable, friendly, and funny. We learned lots of interesting things about Nashville which made us understand and appreciate it. Our teenage boys even enjoyed the tour!

Great experience

Darcy_R, Jun 2024
Dunkin told us interesting facts about the city that we wouldn't have learned otherwise. It was like getting a mini history lesson, but not dry like in a classroom. It was interactive.

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Howdy! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We definitely do love our history and we're so glad we could not only help bring it life, but also to show you the *why* behind our city's great past! We look forward to Wandering with y'all again soon!

Elvis has left the building!

Francisco_C, Oct 2023
Our guide was the best! Born and raised in Nashville. Willing to share her growing experience as the city changed. Grew up in the music business and played ball with Elvis at the age of 6. Excellent tour.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Thanks so much for the positive feedback. We love having Miss Sherri Lee show us the town from her unique (and at times wild) experience. We look forward to having the opportunity to Wander again with y'all soon!

Great experience

Well worth the $10

TRACY_R, Aug 2023
Dunkin was a great guide. We enjoyed the tour. Nashville was a lot of fun and we learned some interesting history.

Amazing Tour!

amanda_s, Aug 2023
Dunkin and this tour surpassed our expectations. He is knowledgeable and entertaining. Definitely recommend!! Don’t underestimate that it is a $10 tour. The amount of effort they put into their tours and making it a pleasurable and knowledgeable experience is worth way more than $10. Thank you Dunkin and Wandering Nashville :)

If you’re in Nashville and looking for the BEST walking tour, you need to book this tour ! Dunkin’ was more than amazing and extremely knowledgeable. We can’t recommend this tour enough !

Response from Host, Jul 2023

We are so excited to hear that y'all think we're the best (we agree!) We will pass along your praise to Dunkin and hope y'all can join us in Nashville again soon!

Dunkin’ was fantastic! He...

SARAH_P, Jun 2023
Dunkin’ was fantastic! He knew so much about the area, and was great about answering any and all questions that we had. We had a smallish tour group, which was great. He also rerouted our group to avoid a big crowd/parade. There were many wonderful things about this tour: We used headsets to hear him better in noisy areas, he passed out cold bottles of water to help beat the heat, and he offered sunscreen halfway through the tour when he said we’d be in more sun. And he was great about keeping my 11yo engaged. Would recommend if you’re looking for a quick overview of the city, or to find out what else you want to explore while in Nashville.

Howdy! We’re so glad y’all enjoyed our historic walking tour! Thank you for the shout out and we appreciate y’all letting us show you around our amazing city!
