Welcome to our Meet the Music Makers Tour. After checking in to the Clarion Downtown in Nashville, take some time to rest and refresh. Then say hello to your tour manager, driver and fellow travellers over welcome drinks.
The day is yours to immerse yourself in the music and fun that can be found in Downtown Nashville. Why not visit the Grand Ole Opry and do the backstage tour.
Nashville calling…Downtown, The Gulch, Bi-Centennial Park or Music Row…you're spoilt for choice but the choice is yours!
Have an easy Sunday morning in Music City or join us on an optional visit to Nashville's Cowboy Church followed by a shopping trip to Hendersonville Tennessee and a chance to pay your respects to Johnny Cash.
The Bluebird Cafe, Patsy Cline or Johnny Cash Museums, General Jackson, Margaritaville, Musicians Hall of Fame, Printers Alley…?
