Nashville Private Booze and Boos Tour
Music City has a few performers who never left the stage and a few drinkers who never left the bar. This private pub crawl takes your group through three haunted downtown Nashville bars with a costumed guide all to yourselves.
📍 Departs from: Freebird, 150 Second Ave N. — please arrive about 15 minutes early to check in with your guide.
The Private Booze and Boos Tour is a 2.5-hour walk through downtown Nashville with stops at up to three haunted bars. At each one your group settles in for a drink while the guide introduces the regulars who never settled up, then you walk the blocks around the Ryman hearing about the Hermitage Hotel's 1920s employee who still turns up for shifts, the performers who disturb the Ryman Auditorium after hours and the honky-tonk basements where the music stops and the footsteps do not.
Nashville companies book this for team-building and holiday parties, and friends book it for birthdays, bachelor and bachelorette weekends and relatives who want something besides Broadway. Being private, it bends to your plans: most tours start between 5 and 9 pm but afternoons work, drop a stop to shorten the night, skip the drinks or have the guide meet your group where you are finishing dinner. Guests at Studio 154, Moxy Nashville Downtown, Courtyard Downtown, Dream Nashville or Noelle can have the guide meet them at the hotel.
Pricing starts at $350 for up to 10 guests, with additional tickets from $30, and rises to $400 from mid-September through mid-November. One guide handles 15 to 20 people depending on the date; groups of 16 or more book by email and larger groups are split across guides. Everyone must be 21 or older with ID. Downtown parking is scarce and pricey, so take a ride-share, or park near the Ryman Auditorium to land close to the meetup.
