For the best private, fun and educational experience--hire this guy! - My husband and I took a morning tour with Steven Whitson and had a fun and educational experience. He arrived at our hotel early making sure we were not waiting for him. Steven's car was clean (always important to me) and a couple treats were included along with bottled water, which I thought was a nice touch. Even though it was a cloudy day that morning, we got to see everything described in his description of what is included in his tour. Along the way we also got to hear about his experience living in Nashville as a singer-songwriter. His stories were fun to hear. Prior to meeting Steven in person, he was wonderfully accommodating over the phone with recommendations on restaurants and interested in what we already had planned during our visit to Nashville. Steven was open and willing to customize his time with us. He stopped along our tour route for pictures and broke out his guitar and sang us one of his very own songs. When it comes to food, he knows about various restaurants in all the different areas of Nashville so ask him what he recommends. He gave us pointers on how to get to the Grand Ole Opry later that evening and suggested we walk through the Gaylord Resort first to see the many beautiful Christmas decorations, and gave us warning of the vast size of the hotel and directions on how not to get lost. We truly enjoyed our time with him and highly recommend Steven Whitson if you are looking for a well-versed local as your tour guide. He will go above and beyond to make your visit a fun and memorable experience.

VIP TOUR you don't want to miss!! - This tour was fantastic, and Steven could not have made us feel more warm and welcome. I was greeted with a hug like an old friend. We saw and did things my family and I would not have done or seen on our own. He provided little snacks and ample water for the tour. Highly recommend!! You will not be disappointed.

Friendly and talented tour guide! - Steven was amazing and took us to all the highlights of Nashville tailored to our own interests. I told him my mom was a Dolly fan and I'm a Swiftie and he took us to some iconic locations.
Highly recommend meeting up with Steven when you're new to Nashville!

I'm thankful to have found this Nashville tour with Steven!!!! - Steven has so much knowledge to offer in regards to the history of Nashville, history of the music industry in Nashville, and everything Nashville has to offer. He has a great sense of humor, and his southern charm is a wonderful touch. I feel like my BFF moved to Nashville and was showing me and my teenage kids around town! I would definitely recommend this tour with Steven!

Exploring Nashville - We had so much fun exploring different parts of the city with Steven. He shared so much interesting information and often paired it with music. The waters, Moon pies and Goo Goo’s were a wonderful surprise treat!

Exceptional Nashville Experience - We have been to Nashville before, and done many of the behind the scenes, celebrity homes, food and city tours over our travels in the city. This was a top notch experience we would highly recommend for anyone new to Nashville!
I had booked this as part of a birthday / 25 year special occasion. We were met with a serenade for the wife before starting our tour. We received water and treats along the way with a wealth of Nashville stories and background along the way. We had also paid for the upgrade, which was nice giving us some more quality time and knowledge along the way.
Our guide was very friendly and willing to cater our VIP experience to what we wanted to see based on out previous visits. He provided additional restaurant and recommendations for us, as we had a trip to Dollywood the following weekend. The wife was very pleased.
Whether going for a special event, or just a first time trip to Nashville, this is a great way to see the city with a singer-songwriter point of view and well worth the investment by comparison to other tours.

Insightful and entertaining tour! - Wonderful experience! I booked this tour when several friends came to visit and wanted to experience Nashville. From the moment I booked the tour, I had fast and clear communication about what to expect and options. The tour vehicle was super clean and the extras were a nice touch. The tour was insightful and entertaining. It was a nice pace and the time flew by. Everyone love it! I would do this over again and again!!!
