This private 2-hour tour of Nashville is led by Steven Whitson, a local singer-songwriter who provides a personal view of the city and performs an original song. The tour schedule is flexible and set according to the customer's itinerary and the guide’s availability. Private transportation is included. The tour begins with a 15-minute drive through Downtown Nashville along Riverfront and Broadway, where the guide points out key sights and the lively music scene of Honky Tonk Row. Next, the group spends about 20 minutes at Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park, including stops at the Farmers Market, the 200-foot state map, and the World War II Memorial, with an optional bell-ringing and restroom break. An optional 15-minute stop is offered at Antique Archaeology, known from American Pickers, to explore shops and museum displays. The tour continues with a 15-minute drive through Music Row, where guests see famous recording studios and may have opportunities for quick stops and photos, possibly spotting celebrities. There is a drive-by of Vanderbilt University during which the guide explains the university's founding. At the Nashville Parthenon, the group stops for 15 minutes to view the exterior, take photos, and hear a brief history; an optional visit inside the museum is available for an extra cost during business hours. A 15-minute stop follows where Steven Whitson performs one of his original songs outside in the parking lot of a venue where he has played at the Bluebird Cafe. Then the tour drives through 12th Avenue South, a lively college area, passing Dolly Parton’s office and Reese Witherspoon’s Draper James store. Guests may choose to end the tour at a local restaurant here and arrange their own ride back. If time allows, there is an optional photo opportunity at The Gulch’s Angel mural, depending on queue length and the itinerary schedule. Snacks and bottled water are provided throughout the tour. Gratuity for the guide is not included. The operator is not responsible for any accidents or injuries during the tour.
