Nashville,
Tennessee
Music City USA — Two Days & One Night
You shouldn't have to worry about
a single thing except enjoying it.
Imagine stepping off the coach right in the heart of Music City — no traffic to fight, no parking garage to navigate, no map to squint at. Your expert tour director already knows exactly where you're going, what's worth seeing, and which table at a honky tonk has the best view of the stage.
Nashville is one of America's most exciting cities — and also one of the most overwhelming to visit on your own. Between figuring out which end of Broadway is best, booking the right hotel, and trying not to miss the Grand Ole Opry experience, most first-time visitors leave feeling like they only scratched the surface.
On this tour, we handle every single detail. Your hotel is booked in the heart of downtown. Your meals are arranged. Your guide knows Nashville the way only a local can. All you have to do is show up Saturday morning and let Music City do the rest.
The Heart of Honky Tonk Row
Lower Broadway's legendary live music scene — every bar, every stage, every night.
Country Music Hall of Fame
The world's greatest museum dedicated to country music, right in the heart of downtown.
Historic RCA Studio B
Where Elvis, Dolly, and Roy Orbison recorded — a genuine piece of American music history.
Downtown Hotel Stay
Wake up steps from the action — no long drives, no suburban hotels, no wasted time.
Two Days in Music City
Here's what awaits you — though the best moments will be the ones nobody planned.
Welcome to Knoxville — Board the Coach
Depart Knoxville at 7AM — approximately 3 hours west on I-40. Guests arrive mid-morning, ready for a full day in America's most exciting musical city. Your tour director sets the scene as the Nashville skyline comes into view.
Broadway & Downtown Orientation
Welcome to Honky Tonk Row — the stretch of Lower Broadway where country music pours from rooftop bars around the clock. Your tour host provides a quick orientation of Nashville's neighborhoods before the day begins.
Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum
The definitive museum of country music — from the Carter Family and Hank Williams to Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, and Taylor Swift. Artifacts include Elvis's Gold Nudie Suit and Patsy Cline's recording contracts. The building itself is designed as a giant piano keyboard and bass clef.
Nashville Hot Chicken — A Tennessee Tradition
Nashville's most famous culinary export — fiery, crispy, cayenne-drenched fried chicken. Prince's Hot Chicken, Hattie B's, and Bolton's are the three great Nashville institutions. A required meal in Music City.
Historic RCA Studio B or The Johnny Cash Museum
Choose based on your group's interests. RCA Studio B is the most famous recording studio in country music history — Elvis recorded over 200 songs here. Alternatively, the Johnny Cash Museum on 3rd Avenue is an intimate and moving tribute to the Man in Black.
12 South or The Gulch — Free Afternoon
Two of Nashville's trendiest neighborhoods for a late afternoon wander. 12 South's boutiques and the famous 'I Believe in Nashville' mural. The Gulch's rooftop bars and upscale dining. Both offer a very different Nashville from the honky tonks.
Lower Broadway at Night — Honky Tonk Hopping
Saturday night on Lower Broadway is one of the great American experiences. All live music on Honky Tonk Row is free — no cover charges. Legends Corner, Tootsies Orchid Lounge, and Layla's Bluegrass Inn each have their own personality. The rooftop bars offer stunning views of the lit-up skyline.
Hotel TBD — Downtown Nashville
