This is an up close and personal tour in a private SUV, not a 40 passenger bus with a loudspeaker! You'll be able to ask questions and guide will dole out information not heard on other star tours. You'll see some of the stars' homes up close, some from a distance, some we won't be able to see anything but the gate or the driveway; but you'll see the neighborhood and get a feel for the area they live in. This is a fun tour. Ask about extended tours that go further out from Nashville to see more homes. Let us know who your favorites are, and we can see what we can work in or what area we might can focus on.
Among other things you'll see where the country stars work and write songs, see the studios where they create the hits, along with the historical sites where it all started in the 50's. The biggest publisher in Nashville, the RCA Recording Studio from 1957, the current record companies and studios, Reba's offices and studio, the first and original recording studio that began Music Row's legacy, George Strait's manager's office, etc, etc. Part walking, some riding, you'll have a great adventure exploring where it all happens in the country music business.
Your guide, a former music biz insider and professional staff-songwriter for 3 major publishers, will give you a fun and informative in-depth and personal tour through the streets of downtown Nashville and Historic District, walking by iconic places like the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Ryman Auditorium, taking you into the historic Church Street area and Printer's Alley, Fort Nashborough, and then down the Honky Tonk Highway, from Category 10 on 2nd Ave, down to Legend's Corner and back down to 3rd and places like the Johnny Cash Museum, GooGoo's candy factory, Lainey Wilson's Bell Bottom's and Kid Rock's. Your guide can answer most any question about the establishments or historical buildings, and give recommendations centered on your likes and dislikes. These are day tours but can prepare you for a night out, and he can point out and recommend eateries as well. We also can cater the tour toward your personal interests.

Enjoy a personal and intensive Civil War tour along the path of the Tennessee Campaign fought between General John Schofield and General John Bell Hood's armies between Spring Hill and Nashville. The stories are gut wrenching and endearing of these men who fought for their beliefs. Cousin against cousin, even brother against brother. With some levity along the way, you'll learn a great deal about the struggle in a personal and appealing way. We'll drive, look, stop and walk our way through history.
