OLD TOWN TROLLEY TOURS

What Our Guests Are Saying

My kids said the trolley was the best part of our time in nashville.

We had the BEST time on our Nashville Trolley with Drey. He taught us so much and also made us laugh numerous times. My kids (ages 12, 10, and 8) said that the trolley was the best part of our time in Nashville. We highly recommend the Trolley ride to anyone visiting Nashville…

Dave was spectacular

My family and I enjoyed a tour of Nashville last week. Dave was our driver/guide. Dave was spectacular or should I say “SPECTACULAR” in describing the sights and history of your vibrant city. His enthusiasm was palpable. Dave should be getting the compensation of your CEO but just don’t take him off of his trolley!

There was never a dull moment

Took my first trolley tour for my first trip to Nashville. Brian “with an I” gave the tour and he did a phenomenal job. I enjoyed your stories and knowledge of Nashville. There was never a dull moment and I am boggled at how well you can drive and maneuver that huge bus in such tight turns. I have referred your company and Brian to everyone I have told about my trip! Thank you!

Thank you for an awesome experience!

Thank you very much for an excellent experience in Nashville! It was our first time there so the information we received on the tour was extremely helpful! Each guide had their own story and perspective on the city we now love so much! Each ride was on time and full of such valuable information it made our trip so much better than it would have been!…

Can’t wait to tour other towns with your company!

I just wanted to let your company know how much my husband and I really enjoyed the Tour with “Patty”. She was so informative and funny! Can’t wait to tour other towns with your company!

Thank you, Randy!

My colleague and I were recently in Nashville for a convention and we took a trolley tour with Randy. He was an excellent tour guide!! Very funny, had a terrific knowledge of the city, and he made the trip quite educational AND enjoyable. Thank you, Randy! And I’ll be sure to recommend Old Town Trolley Tours to anyone I know who visits Nashville.

Love the drivers!

Had several different drivers as we hopped on and hopped off… they were all equally awesome. They all knew the city and the history very well and were very funny and welcoming. Great way to explore Nashville especially when it’s hot and you don’t want to walk around all day. Highly recommend.

Just wonderful!

An absolute must when one is new to a city and has no idea where to go and how to get there. This is my 3rd in this country and I have taken them overseas in Paris and London. Just wonderful!

We will go back to Nashville and plan on using your service...

We recently traveled to Nashville and took a day to enjoy your Trolley Service. We had a wonderful time. Our tour guides were great and our favorite was Big Cat. He was engaging and made us laugh.. Your buses are neat, clean and you employ some great staff who truly try to make the experience fun…

We had a blast with Jules!

My husband and I have just returned from Nashville and we used Old Town Trolley Tours to get around and we just have to say that your driver Jules was our absolute favorite driver that day. She gave all the necessary information with a great dash of her own humor and personality that made the trip so fun! Her love of the city of Nashville shone through each stop on the tour!

Kerrie and our tour guide were fantastic on our tour

We traveled with a group of friends on the Nashville Evening Trolley Tour… Kerrie and our tour guide were fantastic on our tour. They were fun and energetic and made the entire 90 minutes entertaining and informative. Thank you for an amazing experience in a fabulous town!

You will not be disappointed with Buck as your guide

Buck was the most knowledgeable tour guide for our trip around Nashville. He was entertaining and insightful. We were fortunate to have Buck lead us on our tour of Nashville. You will not be disappointed in the experience with Buck as your guide. Thank you so much!!

Janice's love of the city and music was palpable

My co-worker and I did the soul tour in Nashville. It was a wonderful experience from beginning to end! Janice was our guide and she was extremely engaging. Her love of the city and music was palpable. I believe our driver was Trevor… He was awesome as well. At the end of the tour, he offered to wait until our Uber arrived. Kudos to both and definitely 5 stars!

Would definitely return for a tour with Tater

We took the Nashville Old Town Trolley Tour with Tater as our guide. Loved the tour and our guide. He was energetic, funny, and very knowledgeable as well as being kind and helpful. Would definitely return for a tour with Tater.

Editor's Pick: Old Town Trolley Tours – Nashville Hop On Hop Off Trolley Tour

Price: Adults from $63; kids from $25 Duration: 1.75 hours

U.S. News independently paid to send Kellie Walton , a Tennessee-based travel, food and beverage writer, on this tour to provide readers with an unbiased, first-hand perspective of what to expect. Old Town Trolley Tours – Nashville Hop-on Hop-off Trolley Tour was selected by our team as an Editor’s Pick thanks to its popularity and favorable user reviews.

Nashville’s allure spreads far beyond the honky-tonks lining Broadway – there’s a world-class food scene, influential history in the Civil Rights and suffrage movements, and even a full-size replica of the Parthenon originally in Athens, Greece. Old Town Trolley Tours’ Hop-on Hop-off option moves visitors through each of these highlights and more, including retail districts Capitol View, the Gulch and Marathon Village, and attractions like the Ryman Auditorium , Country Music Hall of Fame and the Frist Art Museum . In total, it makes 13 stops. Riders are free to disembark and rejoin at any stop to explore the destinations by foot, with trolleys arriving around every half hour.

Throughout the tour, learn behind-the-scenes facts and personal anecdotes from a live local tour guide, such as their favorite dish to order at nearby restaurants, and where famous songs were recorded. The majority of Old Town Trolley Tours drivers moonlight as musicians, and come with insider knowledge of popular venues and recording studios around town. The comfortable trolleys are operational in any weather, with open-air windows that can be sealed quickly with a plastic covering in the event of rain.

Kellie Walton

Why we love it:

• Marathon Village, accessible via stop one, houses many Nashville retail options, including a Jack Daniel’s retail store, an amplifier showroom and Antique Archaeology, a store made famous by the reality television show “American Pickers.” 
• Many highly recommended restaurants are within walking distance from several trolley stops. Turn up the heat at Hattie B’s Hot Chicken at stops three and nine, or dine inside an old train station at Stationairy or The Finch at stop six. 
• For those visiting Nashville by car, stops one (Marathon Motor Works), 12 (Nashville Farmers' Market) and 13 (Capitol View) have free street parking within walking distance of trolley stops.

DANCE, DRINK, & PARTY WITH THE BEST

You might be considering a party barge or pedal bus for a bachelorette party in Nashville. I urge you to go for the barge. It was HOT AF and we were all so glad to have a boozy bus tour that we didn't have to peddle on. Our tour guide from the photo was great!! We danced and drank the whole time. He took us to a bar and sang a song and serenaded the bride. The bar was just our party too. It was so much fun! I'd definitely recommend it. Great way to see the city.

We had so much fun! With everything going on with corona right now it was great to be able to celebrate my best friend for her bachelorette with Captain Kenny. We were able to go to all the great instagram worthy spots and loved his recommendation on where to eat after we finished. We would love to do it again for sure!

We had a great trip on the Party Barge tonight. Our whole crew was excited before and we could hardly get everyone off at the end. Kenny are driver had the cooler ready and full of ice and was extremely personable. He gave us some options on stops and was the designated photographer for photo opportunities. We partied like we were all 21 again even though most of us were 2 and some 3 times that. Thanks Kenny and Party Barge for a great night out in Nashville!!!

We did the barge as part of a bachelorette bash in Nashville and it was a group favorite. Ronnie, our driver, was such a delight. He was kind, funny, and took us on a wonderful trip around the city. Not only do you get to see a ton of sights - you have an amazing experience you won't get elsewhere! You can choose to play your own music and it's BYOB. I can't imagine this trip without this experience.
