Guide was good. A few too many people. I was under the impression you capped the groups at 15. I believe there was 26 in the group.

It’s great for whoever loves ghost stories and history. We ended going on the tour on a rainy day so we had the tour guide to ourselves so that was a big plus! Easy tour very close to Broadway where all the city fun is!

We had the most amazing tour guide, Alex. We hit the jackpot with him! He is incredibly knowledgeable of the area due to his personal research and experiences. I never thought that downtown Nashville could be so haunted. I would love to book another tour with Alex as our guide. We could’ve talked to him for hours. He was also nice and friendly. I have been on multiple ghost tours around the country (including several in New Orleans) and this is my absolute favorite by far!
