Taste of Nashville Food & Sightseeing Tour
MandaRenee84, Nov 2022 Verified
I love a good food tour to check out a new place and meet people from all over...this tour did not disappoint! Scott was awesome, very knowledgeable about the history of Nashville (especially of Nashville hot chicken) and the places we stopped for food. The tour gives you just a taste of Nashville during the 3hrs. I would highly recommend this tour and Scott as a guide. The air conditioned bus for 13 was comfortable and we were able to hear everything Scott had to say. Book the tour!!!
*(we had no idea that the Run Nash marathon was going on the weekend of 11/12, we booked for 11/11 and no issues or traffic at all)

I booked this tour has I thought this would be a nice change from the run of the mill city tours and believe me myself and my wife loved it.first of all let's start with our tour guide SCOTT a truly wonderful guide and very knowledgeable. There were six people on the tour which we enjoyed as not a big crowd,a very comfortable tour bus with air conditioning if needed and a tour that lasted about 2-3 hrs.i would suggest that you go with an appetite ready attitude as plenty of food eaten and well worth it won't spoil tour by telling about where we visited and what we ate but A MUST DO TOUR.enjoy.

I attended their Taste of Nashville Food & Sightseeing Tour and our guide was Scott. It was wonderful and much better than I was expecting. The way they shared some interesting insights about the food, alcohol and history of Nashville was so engaging and entertaining. I learned a lot and had fun while doing it! I highly recommend it - and you should ask for Scott as your guide!
