“The museum was very informative and interesting. It provided a deeper look into the origins and background than I knew about.”
Explore Nashville’s Country Music Hall of Fame with interactive listening stations, artist fashion and lyrics, and the Hall of Fame Rotunda.
“Thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Great facts about America's artists and some really cool items in the museum.”
See Nashville music legends and the GRAMMY Museum Gallery. Interactive exhibits, Hendrix artifacts, and hands-on sound play for $28.
“The museum was amazing and had so much in it. I especially liked the Grammy area. The interactive areas was fun to see.”
Madame Tussauds Nashville at Opry Mills is a quick, family-friendly, photo-heavy walk through music icons. Optional Amber Falls wine.
“Great experience. Wished it was just longer. The statues as so life like. Teens really enjoyed it. Would go back.”
Nashville Fun Pass lines up top music stops like Cash Museum, Country Hall, RCA Studio B or Hatch, Ole Smoky tasting, wax museum, and a trolley.
“The experiences were good. The wax museum was great fun for the whole family. Enjoyed the Studio B tour, great tour guide. Be aware that you need to print vouchers prior to visiting each venue. We were in an Airbnb and did not have access to a printer.....need to go digital!! Very inconvenient!”
Hard Rock Cafe Nashville prix-fixe dinner on Broadway with acoustic or electric menus, included dessert and drinks, family-friendly value.
“Super disappointed. The reservation never said a time. It only showed hours of operation and what came with the purchase meal. We got there at 3pm and they told us the tickets weren’t good until 5pm. We ended up paying for these tickets and had to buy our meal there, basically paying twice for the same thing. The tickets were money out the window. It was 4th of July and super crowded so we weren’t willing to come back or wait two hours and try to fight crowds or risk not being able to get out of downtown. Crazy disappointing.”
Circle Pass bundles Nashville’s hop-on trolley with music museums, Ole Smoky tasting, and Johnny Cash plus Ryman visits for one price.
“Beware buying multiple museums on one pass. We did and the trolley only runs certain hours we didn't get to ride the trolley once because we didn't realize this. The museums have certain hours, so it's unlikely you're gonna be able to get into see all of them on a one-day pass. This was very disappointing and dishonest to say the least! I gave my trip a five star because the museums we did get into see were awesome! Beware, third-party vendors and bundling!! Read the fine print thoroughly!”
Nashville Explorer Pass bundles top attractions for a pre-paid year. Pick Circle, Music, or Fun and save on admissions plus extras like tastings.
“It was a great trip and were able to do so many things purchasing this pass.”
