Description
While most Nashville sightseeing tours near Broadway are built around bar crawls and bachelorette parties, the Joyride Nashville Hayride Sightseeing Tour is one of the few completely non-alcoholic, family-friendly options in the city.
Climb aboard a custom-built open-air tractor-wagon at Joyride HQ on 9th Avenue South and roll past 35 Nashville landmarks in two hours, covering more of the city than most visitors see in a full day on foot. The route takes you past the neon glow of Broadway's honky-tonks, the converted warehouses of The Gulch, Midtown's restaurant row, the Tennessee State Capitol, and Bicentennial Capitol Mall before looping back through Marathon Village and Music Row.
With no alcohol served onboard and open seating for guests of any age, this is one of the easiest family outings in Nashville for groups that include grandparents, toddlers, or anyone who prefers to skip the bar-crawl scene. Every seat is open-air with a clear sightline for photos of the skyline and neon.
Your Joyride guide does more than point out landmarks, sharing the stories, history, and local dining recommendations that make the difference between a sightseeing loop and a real introduction to Music City.
The tour runs rain or shine. Bring layers and dress for the forecast; if conditions become unsafe, Joyride offers a rebooking or full refund. The tractor-wagon requires a step up to board with limited wheelchair access, so call ahead with any accessibility needs. Restrooms are not available onboard, so use the facilities at Joyride HQ before boarding.
Arrive 15 minutes early to check in. Tours require a minimum of six guests to operate and seat up to 30. At $39 per adult and under $20 for kids, the Hayride Sightseeing Tour is one of the most affordable two-hour Nashville experiences available, and one of the only ones the whole family can enjoy together.
