Escorted Tours of Nashville

Given the musical histories of both Nashville and Memphis, Tennessee holidays are brimming with vivacious rhythms.

The state's capital, Nashville, remains the heart and soul of country music in the US. Otherwise known as Music City, it is home to various music venues that have contributed to the country genre, including the legendary Studio B, home to countless country hits and a galaxy of Elvis’ RCA recordings, and the famed Grand Ole Opry – the world's longest-running live radio show. Downtown, the Country Music Hall of Fame reveals the impact the city has made in music since the 1920s.

Nashville holidays also provide the chance to soak up the atmosphere on Honky Tonk Highway, where you’ll find enough live music venues to keep you entertained both day and night. Located on Lower Broadway, it has been the birthplace to some of country music’s finest, including Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson. Whether you’re a country music fan or not, a tour of Nashville simply wouldn’t be complete without an evening here.

Many of our Nashville tour packages also provide the chance to visit the city of Memphis, set on the banks of the Mississippi River and home to attractions such as Graceland, the former abode of Elvis Presley, world-famous Beale Street and the Civil Rights Museum.

Things to see in Nashville

No Nashville vacation package is complete without a visit to the Country Music Hall of Fame. Here you can discover the roots of country music through a wide range of exhibitions and artefacts, which include Elvis' gold piano and a suit belonging to Hank Williams.

Fans of Johnny Cash won't want to miss the opportunity to explore the world's largest collection of artefacts dedicated to the legendary musician at the Johnny Cash Museum.

Things to do in Nashville

Music lovers might like to visit Studio B on their holidays in Nashville. As the oldest of the city's surviving recording studios, it has welcomed music legends such as Elvis Presley, Dolly Parton and the Everly Brothers.

Take a stroll in Centennial Park and visit the Parthenon, a full-scale reproduction of the famous structure in Athens. Built in 1897, it now houses the city's primary art museum.

The Lane Motor Museum is home to the largest collection of European cars in the United States, as well as a wide range of other classic cars, motorcycles, aeroplanes and floating automobiles.

Food and Drink in Nashville

Holidays to Memphis and Nashville mean great Southern specialities.

Feast on local favourites such as chicken and dumplings, biscuits and gravy and Tennessee barbecue served, of course, with mac and cheese.

Nashville hotels and restaurants serve up some fantastic desserts. Look out for coconut cake, a creamy sponge cake covered in meringue frosting and desiccated coconut, and banana pudding, composed of layers of custard, wafers and sliced banana.

As the city's signature dish, be sure to sample a hot chicken sandwich on your Nashville holiday.

Consisting of pieces of crispy fried chicken topped with hot sauce, lettuce and pickles in a toasted bun, it's a rather more rock 'n' roll take on a chicken sandwich.
