Want to see the best of Nashville without missing a beat (or a selfie spot)? You’re in the right place. Whether you're here for the music, the murals, the mansions—or just want to soak up the city's charm—there's a sightseeing tour for every pace, personality, and point of view.

If you’re new to Nashville or short on time, hop-on-hop-off trolley and bus tours are the easiest way to hit all the major landmarks. You’ll cruise by Broadway’s bright lights, the Ryman Auditorium, Music Row, Centennial Park, and more—all with live or audio narration to bring the stories to life. You can ride the full loop in under two hours or jump off at spots that catch your eye.

Want a bird’s-eye view? Helicopter tours are a thrilling, high-flying way to take in the cityscape—and they're surprisingly affordable for small groups or couples looking to elevate their experience. Some even stretch beyond the city skyline for views of rolling hills, rivers, and countryside.

For travelers who like to get up close, walking tours offer a more personal perspective. These often focus on specific themes—like downtown history, street art, or the music scene—and are great for curious minds and camera-happy explorers. Local guides bring personality and insider knowledge that you won’t get from behind a windshield.

Looking to see more than just the city? Day trips to surrounding distilleries, historic towns like Franklin, or the Jack Daniel’s distillery in Lynchburg let you experience Tennessee’s small-town charm and whiskey-soaked heritage. These tours often include tastings, scenic drives, and a deeper dive into the region’s cultural roots.

Here’s the breakdown:

• Hop-on-hop-off trolleys = great for first-timers & flexible sightseeing

• Helicopters = high-impact wow factor (amazing for couples!)

• Walking tours = intimate, focused, and full of stories

• Day trips = perfect for deeper exploration and whiskey lovers

We hand-select each experience based on guest reviews, local insight, and overall quality—so you can feel confident wherever your sightseeing takes you.
