Had a wonderful time with Cody. He did a great job giving the history behind Nashville's prohibition and highlights in history. Distilleries were wonderful. Learned how to properly taste whiskey and bourbon. Educational, historical and included good alcohol.
We went on this tour with Cody as our guide. Cody was incredibly enthusiastic and passionate about this tour, which made it so fun and interesting to listen to him. We ended up at three different bars: Nashville Barrel Company (which had a variety of samples to choose from including whiskey, bourbon, wine, or frozen drinks), Alley Taps (a bar in Printer's Alley with fun live music, local brews, and traditional bar drinks), and Big Machine Brewery and Distillery (which had a variety of signature and classic cocktails). At each stop, a drink was included and we heard a lot about the history and interesting facts about each place. Between each location, Cody talked not only about the history of Nashville, but also current Nashville. With it being our first night on our first trip ever to Nashville, this was a great way to start things off! We were lucky and had a fun group of 12, which is another plus about this tour in that they keep each group small so that it is more personal. I highly recommend this tour! So fun!
Flight delays didn't allow us to attend. It was to late to get a refund. The local provider gave us a comp tour to compensate for no refund for later cancellation
Sorry the flight delays kept you from joining us, but we’re glad we could set you up with a comp tour. We look forward to seeing you next time!
Cody was awesome, friendly, informative. Our tour was cut short due to weather but we so enjoyed the first few stops. The people, atmosphere and drinks were great! ❤️. We would definitely recommend to others.
Cody was amazing! I learned so much I didn’t know about nashvilles history with whiskey! The cocktails were great and cheap!
For grown ups who want to appreciate history From spicy moonshine to honeyed whiskey, every sample felt curated. The bars were stylish and welcoming. Great time.
This tour is amazing! My wife and I were in town for a conference and we stumbled across this tour, we are so glad we did! Paul is amazing and we got to taste Local Tennessee whiskey and visited amazing bars that we would've never known about without this tour. Highly recommended!
Paul does a great job of providing historical context on the Nashville area and it's growth through the decades. The tour was a nice mix of informative stops and fun stops like Coyote Ugly. Paul also gave some great recommendations that helped me make the most of my visit!
My friend and I enjoyed this tour. Paul was very friendly, knowledgable about the history in Nashville. We stopped by some fun spots to try out moonshine and whiskey!
Very unique tour experience. Historical and encyclopedic information about Nashville. Enjoyed doing something different but fun! Had a couple drinks to reflect the history lesson and took a short stroll around scenic areas. This tour is recommended for people that want to do more than the bar scene .
