This tour gives a great overview of nashville and the downtown points of interest. It is filled with general knowledge and some special and very interesting fun facts and some nighttime activity tips. The directions are very clear and the location and proximity based playing of tracks functions very well on this tour, even without wifi / data connection. Very godd value for money, especially since it seems that there are none touristy tours in nashville, as all i could find were ghost or music/singing related tours.

This self guided tour was great! The GPS on your phone let’s the audio know where your at. It’s so much better than following someone around who walks fast and you never get to hear anything. I learned a lot about the city and suggestions for food and other attraction. I will be using this type of tour from now on! Plus it was only $6.99!

Loved the trivial things the guide told about Nashville we wouldn’t have found out about otherwise. Made for a fun hour and a half!
