So glad we chose this tour!

Robin_E, Mar 2024

My 23 year old daughter and I took this tour, and I was a little nervous about the history parts getting too boring for my college-aged child. However, Kristi really brought all the stories to life with such energy, my daughter talked about the tour as one of her favorite parts of visiting Nashville! The stories were great, the food was great, we both really didn't want the tour to end.

Great

Come Hungry!

Sue_L, Sep 2023

Kurt was the epitome of both a knowledgeable and accommodating tour guide. The food and whiskey samples were a great representation of what Nashville has to offer. Kurt was great at recommending other sights in the downtown neighborhood as well as our favorite “The Listening Room.”

5 stars! Wonderful experience

A wonderful morning with our guide Austin on our food tour, he was very informative and had a lot of knowledge and history to share with us about the history of Nashville. He took very good care of us and took all the time to explain each site in detail, wonderful talking to him and would do it all over again! A great way to get to know Nashville from the eye of a local

I'd walk this tour again.

Maureen_M, Aug 2023

Our tour guide, Evan, was friendly and personable as we walked the tour throughout Germantown. Germantown seems to be an area that needs to be more recognized as a great area to venture in. The small businesses we visited were all filled with friendly staff and the food tastings were delicious. The end point was my favorite and not because it was a distillery. The "Far Better" was a great way to wind down the tour. It was 100* (no joke) and we didn't mind the heat. Thank you Evan for a wonderful few hours filled with knowledge and laughter.

Stellar tour guide

Esther_K, Jul 2023

Our tour guide, Austin, was amazing! He was so knowledgeable about the area and beyond as he could answer basically every possible question about the area. The food stops were good overall, but I’d rate that part a 3 and the guide a 5, hence the overall 4 rating. One more savory stop vs sweets would round things out nicely in my opinion. We’d definitely book again and ask for Austin as our guide!

Germantown Tour

Karen_K, Jun 2023

The Tour started with a lot of wonderful Tennesse history and then changed. No German food or drink (beer) One sweet stop would have been better than 2 in a row. Why was there no wine or beer stop? The Baseball stadium stop was awful....greasy tatertots and Flatbread with water. No relevance to anything. German food or Beer and pretzel would have been good. The Market fried chicken was delicious and Evan our tour guide was nice, knowledgeable and well.spoken.

Fun tour around Germantown…ask for Scott!!

April_J, Jun 2023

We had an amazing time touring Germantown. Scott was our tour guide, and he was FANTASTIC!! He was so knowledgeable and had so many unique and fun facts about Nashville and its history. The treats sling the way were a bonus (and yummy ones at that)! My husband and I both felt talking this tour was money well spent!

Very enjoyable tour in Germantown!

Carol_B, Apr 2023

The walk through bicentennial park and the carillon was beautiful and the history shared was very interesting. Kristi was very personable and shared lots of fun stories. The food and beverage was great as well and we had a wonderful experience. Learned a lot and had a full belly at the end!

Nashville Experience

David_P, Jan 2023

The food was great!!! However, we were surprised how much history we learned about Nashville and Tennessee. Very interesting. Evan was a great tour guide and host.

wonderful tour.........you'll have a blast

Catherine_S, Dec 2022

Scott, our guide, made the trip memorable. His sense of humor, knowledge of the area, ability to interact with our group, recommendations on other sites to visit in the city made the tour fantastic. We became friends with the other 2 couples on the trip and spent the rest of the day listening to music and drinking beers with them. So much fun. Book the tour. Ask for Scott. You'll be happy that you did.

Love food tours!

Ashly_H, Dec 2022

Scott was a knowledgeable and fun tour guide, highly recommend. Food tours are an excellent way to get a sample of local food/treats, learn some history and fun facts, and explore an area of town that you might not have known about. A food tour will always be on my to do list for every city. We even became friends for the day with the other two couples!

Germantown walk

PATRICKG_P, Nov 2022

This time ended up being just the wife and I which made it private couples tour for us. Our guide Evan was great and very knowledgeable of all the history for not only Germantown but Nashville as well. We recommend him for this tour and would also suggest the walking tour, get to experience much more.

Being a tourist in my hometown

Karen_D, Nov 2022

Evan was very knowledgeable about the area. Loved walking the streets of Germantown and sampling both sweet and savory treats.

Fun and Tasty

Tina_V, Nov 2022

The history through Bi-Centenial Park was wonderful. Evan, our guide was knowledgeable and fun. Enjoyed the food. The variety of food was nice. It was a gorgeous fall day. I would have saved the cookie for later if I had known that the next stop was Hot Chicken. Food was tasty and the group was fun. A great thing to do to see more of Nashville.

Not worth the time.

ANTHONY_R, Sep 2022

Not at all what I expected. Only talked about music and Elvis. Don’t know why titled German town. Not worth the time or money.

Response from Host, Sep 2022

Hi Anthony, the tour is titled the Germantown tour because of the neighborhood that it is in. I'm sorry if you expected a German tour. We do try to give our guests unique Nashville-centric insights from our musician guides as they have incredible stories and careers. But we also hope you enjoyed the 5 different tastings along the tour as well. If you would like to share your expectations more thoroughly, please feel free to email us directly at info@dabblestudio.com so we can further work out this miscommunication.

Fantastic food tour, great guide!

Heather_B, Aug 2022

Kurt was an excellent tour guide! Super knowledgeable about the Nashville area. He did a great job making everyone in the group fee comfortable and made sure everyone was having fun! Great tour, good food, awesome guide! Highly recommend.

Brad_P, Jul 2022
