The Experience

Before You Go

Check in early at The Green Light Bar

Walk through the front door, grab the table tag with your guide’s name and be seated—arrive 10 minutes before departure to avoid delays.

Bring sun protection

Carts provide limited shade; sunglasses, sunscreen, and a brimmed hat keep you comfortable during riverfront stretches.

Comfortable shoes for quick stops

Most sightseeing is from the cart, but brief photo stops may require short walks on uneven sidewalks or steps.

Carry a small camera or phone stabilizer

Street murals, the riverfront, and Music Row reward steady shots—stabilizers improve handheld photos from a moving cart.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Marathon Village alleyways—small artist shops and a quiet courtyard perfect for candid photos
  • Riverfront pedestrian paths under the Korean War Veterans Memorial for a less crowded skyline view

Wildlife

  • River gulls and terns along the Cumberland
  • Urban squirrels and migratory songbirds in Bicentennial Capitol Mall

Conservation Note

Downtown requires careful waste disposal and respect for riverbanks—the Cumberland’s health depends on minimizing runoff and litter during city events.

Nashville grew from a riverfront trading post into Music City over the 19th and 20th centuries; Music Row emerged mid-20th century as a cluster of studios that shaped modern country music.
