“Our tour was fantastic! Julie our guide was phenomenal! Full of interesting facts that kept the short ride to Franklin interesting! We booked our tour for New Year’s Eve day, and the Lotz House ended up being closed (the tour company had verified it would be open so this was a surprise!) Fortunately Julie is also a guide for the tour of the stars homes, so she obtained permission to take us on a partial tour of homes after our group expressed interest in doing this!!!

6.Arrington Wine and Franklin Dine Private Tour from Nashville

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 4 reviews · 6 hours 15 minutes (approx.) · from $229

A private wine-country day trip from Nashville: Pickers Creek Winery, Arrington Vineyards tastings plus a bottle, then Franklin and downtime in Nashville.

“Our original driver never showed up at pick up time. I had to speak with Viator and the tour operator. Though an hour after my original pick up time, the tour operator did manage to find another driver and we were able to take the wine tour. I was hoping to experience more of Franklin and I think that Main St would be a nice addition to the dining experience.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $299

Private half-day wine tour from Nashville: pickup, Crown Winery and Arrington tastings, plus Franklin’s The Factory for shops and lunch.

“The tour guide was nice enough but really did not have a game plan for the tour and did not do any research about the wineries. We had to dictate everything. Not customary for Viator. It was a lot of money for what we got. Again the young lad was very respectful & nice. We would recommend going to Crown Winery.”
