Rick was great. He was super knowledgeable and fun to tour with. He was funny and knew how to give a great tour. We stopped to try hot chicken on the tour which was a great recommendation on his part. He also had great recommendations for food and activities outside of the tour. He was able to give a great history of both the state and the city of Nashville along with fun anecdotes. Highly recommend this tour to learn about the city and see some fun things along the way.

I have been a big fan of Johnny Cash and finally I got to see his museum. It was worth the trip to Nashville from Bakersfield CA.

Rick was an excellent guide. He was a true gentleman and knew his way around Nashville quite well. It was a fun time!

The tour guide was really kind and knowledgeable about the buildings and the history associated with them. However, I personally wouldn’t pay for this tour again. It was a bit pricey. I would’ve rather just paid the $25 for the Johnny Cash Museum and walked around the city on my own.

Ed was an amazing guide. I asked us what we want to see and showed it to us. Ed shared a lot of his knowledge about the city, the history of the city, ... Very cool!
