If you haven't heard Mike rave about the hop on hop off trolley tour, you haven't talked to Mike. This thing is Mike's Roman Empire.

But for real it is an easy way to get around the city, see what you want, skip what you want, and save on some Ubers.

Stops include Centennial Park/Parthenon, Belmont, Country Music Hall of Fame, Broadway, Ryman, and many more!

Cost is around $47 for a one day ticket.

Must see for the country music fan (and even those who aren't!). Tickets are around $30, and we do recommend you buy beforehand as certain times can sell out beforehand (tickets are purchased based on an entry time). Exhibits are constantly changing.

Hatch Show Print (block print posters known in Nashville) is also now part of the Country Music Hall of Fame world as well as Studio B where songs such as the Everly Brothers’ “All I Have to Do Is Dream,” Roy Orbison’s “Only the Lonely,” and Elvis Presley's “Are You Lonesome Tonight” were all recorded. Tickets can be purchased to tour these venues as well.

We could never do this justice so from the website itself:

The Parthenon stands proudly as the centerpiece of Centennial Park, Nashville's premier urban park. The re-creation of the 42-foot statue Athena is the focus of the Parthenon just as it was in ancient Greece. The building and the Athena statue are both full-scale replicas of the Athenian originals.

Originally built for Tennessee's 1897 Centennial Exposition, this replica of the Parthenon in Athens, Greece serves as a monument to what is considered the pinnacle of classical architecture. The plaster replicas of the Parthenon Marbles found in the Naos are direct casts of the original sculptures, which adorned the pediments of the Athenian Parthenon dating back to 438 B.C. The originals of these powerful fragments are housed in the British Museum in London.
