    The history of the estate was fascinating! Information about the slaves was also included & did not make excuses/apologies for the fact that slavery was part of the lifestyle at that time! The wine was excellent!

    Janice_B, Apr 2024
    Our tour guide had only been on the job for 3 days. Everyone on our tour was shocked at this because she was so knowledgeable! She was phenominal at explaining everything including the lives of each family member. She answered all questions asked & gave us the history of the families & the mansion itself like a pro. Very enjoyable. I'd highly recommend this tour!

    Clare_M, Apr 2024
    We enjoyed our visit to Belle Meade. Our tour guide, Willie, was very informative sharing the interesting history of the generations of the family that lived there. It was fabulous to see how the mansion looked back in its day. We enjoyed the wine and bourbon tasting as well as walking around the area. I highly recommend visiting the Belle Meade if you are in the area.
    Love the history and beautiful grounds!

    If you like history of Belle Meade and horse racing you will enjoy it. You can walk around the grounds after your tour, have ice cream, wine (after the complimentary tasting) and purchase memories at the gift shop. We sat outside in a covered are with a bottle of wine.
    Unique day at Belle Meade
    Lori_K, Apr 2024
    We enjoyed the history of Belle Meade given by our tour guide and of course touring the house. We also were there during the eclipse and we enjoyed sipping on wine outside and watching the eclipse.
    Good tour guide and wine...
    Bob_B, Apr 2024
    Good tour guide and wine selection. Beautiful grounds Staff was friendly and efficient . Easy to find and loved the free parking
    Definitely Worth the Visit
    Brittney_L, Apr 2024
    About 10 minutes outside of Nashville lies this beautiful piece of land. The tour includes a good amount of background knowledge and I like how they focus a lot on the slaves and figuring out their identities. The wine tasting at the end is quick but enjoyable. You get to try 1 red, 1 white and 2 dessert wines. The white one and dessert wines were my favorite. Not included on tour but I recommend - you can also walk around the property after the tour like we did, sample some bourbon and even get food if you want. Highly recommend this tour!!
    The Mansion

    Such a wonderful tour and an interesting piece of history. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous and the staff extremely friendly. Loved it.
    Great tour and history of Belle Meade
    BELINDA_S, Mar 2024
    The history and tour was magnificent! The wine tasting was just that a tasting so don't expect any more than an ounce of wine per taste. Walking the grounds and exploring all the buildings is very worth the money! Love it!

    Very entertaining telling of the history of the mansion and people whoe resided there. The mansion was beautiful. I opted out of the wine tasting so I have no review for that.
    Absolutely Amazing!
    Jean_Z, Mar 2024
    Belle Meade tour was my favourite part of our entire two week visit to Tennessee. The estate is gorgeous. We were lucky to visit on a stunningly beautiful spring day. The grounds are immaculate. It was easy to imagine the residents of the past walking the same grounds we were walking. The out buildings are very interesting. We loved the guided mansion tour. Our tour guide, Gavin was amazing. He was knowledgeable, interesting, attentive and even had some very amusing jokes for us. We really enjoyed Gavin, he is a fantastic young man. The Mansion was an absolute feast for the eyes. Gavin gave us plenty of time to try to take in all of the sights. The history lesson given by Gavin was amazing. I loved every minute of it. After our wonderful tour we had a lovely wine tasting and we also stayed for lunch. The entire morning at Belle Meade was very enjoyable and I would recommend it to anyone. If you love history, old buildings and their stories this is the place to go.
    Amazing history!!
    Missy_S, Mar 2024
    Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the mansion and families that lived there. I was bummed we were not allowed to take photos inside the mansion at all, but we were able to on the grounds. The wine tasting was fun and I experienced a couple very delicious wines!!! I recommend the tour to learn a little history and for something interesting to do.
