The Schermerhorn Symphony Center, nestled in downtown Nashville, is a harmonious blend of classical elegance and modern innovation.

Its design draws inspiration from Europe's grand concert halls, featuring a "shoebox" layout renowned for superior acoustics. The Laura Turner Concert Hall, the centerpiece of the center, boasts natural lighting through 30 soundproof clerestory windows—a rarity in contemporary concert venues. The hall's versatility is enhanced by a unique motorized system that transforms the seating area into a 5,700-square-foot ballroom, accommodating a variety of events from classical concerts to jazz performances.

Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park is more than just a scenic green space—it’s a full-scale tribute to Tennessee’s rich and complex history.

From the sweeping granite timeline tracing two centuries of Tennessee history, to the 50-bell carillon that represents each U.S. state, every element has a story to tell.
On our tour, we don’t just pass through—we dig in. Our guides help bring the park to life, pointing out details you might otherwise miss, like the rivers and counties etched into the marble plaza, or the seven towering columns meant to echo the state’s seven geographic regions.

The Gulch is one of Nashville’s most dynamic neighborhoods, and exploring it by e-bike lets us show you the side most visitors miss. Once an old railyard, it’s now a hotspot for vibrant murals, trendy boutiques, stylish brunch spots, and rooftop views that show off the city skyline. We cruise past the famous wings mural, but we also uncover hidden works of street art and lesser-known corners that give the Gulch its character. With a mix of historic roots and sleek modern design, this stop captures where Nashville’s been—and where it’s headed.

Tennessee State Capitol
Perched on a hill overlooking the city, the Tennessee State Capitol is one of the most iconic and historic landmarks in Nashville. Built in the 1850s using local limestone, it’s one of the oldest working state capitol buildings in the country—and one of the few designed in the Greek Revival style without a dome. On our tour, we stop at a prime viewing spot where your guide shares the story behind its construction, its architect’s dramatic fate, and the powerful moments in Tennessee history that unfolded on these very grounds.
It’s a striking view and a powerful reminder of the state’s influence on national history—from the Civil War to the suffrage movement. We won’t bore you with politics, but we’ll definitely make the history stick.

Surrounded by stunning modern architecture, public art installations, and views of both the skyline and the hills beyond, it’s a cool contrast to the historic neighborhoods we explore earlier in the tour.
