  • Come along on our Nashville Walking Tour and learn what there is to do in downtown Nashville!
    Thanks to Thomas' sister, Sami, we have been on a 10-DAY MYSTERY ROAD TRIP and we had no idea where we would end up. For day 9, we were given a packet with the directions and information for a free self-guided walking tour of downtown Nashville! We learned about where greats like Willie Nelson got their start, why Nashville is called "MUSIC CITY", and experienced so many more things to see in Nashville, TN.
    This whole experience was a surprise birthday gift to us from Thomas' sister, Samantha! She gave us a packet of 10 sealed envelopes with directions for each day. All we know is that it is a midwest road trip, but we have had no clue where exactly that means. If you haven't yet, make sure you check out our previous videos and join us for our midwest mystery vacation! Here's the intro: • Going on a 10-DAY MYST... ​

      I know! We were pretty bummed we didn’t get to film up there because they do a lot of cool things every season. When we were there the theme was “pool party grill out” so they had a bunch of Airstream trailers, grills and a pool - that we didn’t show. It seems like a cool place to hang for sure!

    Your video was fun and inspiring , sat writing what else to see when visiting. Thank you can't wait to visit ! I'm sure they have photos of the Greyhound bus being placed or was it just pieced together ?! The history part also a must to see like Woolworths, and Church for sure.

We have seen so many amazing videos about Nashville and knew there was a great food scene as well! Definitely a place we'd like to visit one day! Loving the street art that you mentioned! So pretty! What a nice security guard!!! Greyhound on the roof sounds so legit and it's a functioning bar! Thanks for showing us around!

      Yes! My mom would always print off a packet of information about every place we traveled when we were kids and she would take us on our own self-guided tours. Walking tours are the best! And you should definitely check it out if you’re ever in the neighborhood, Nashville really does have a lot to offer. And we wish we would have had more time to hang out at that bar, because it would have been so fun to get a drink and go swimming - but we had so much we still had to see haha .. there’s always work to be done when you’re travel vlogging! 😂😂

    You did a great job and shot all this prior to me beginning my job at the Bobby Hotel (Concierge - began 06/01/21). My desk is right next to the check in desk. Do you remember seeing the Rolling Stone artwork behind a desk? That's where I am. The Arcade - I eat lunch and people watch there almost ever workday (it is closed on Sunday). That's area is also the topic of this weeks video LOL. I also go into Printer's Alley a lot. There is a British Pub (owned by a Brit) with great food. Again, you really did a great job - Nashville thanks you. :)

      @RuthandThomas  3 роки тому

      I KNOW RIGHT?? They probably would have let us if we didn't ask any questions, but I think they were more suspicious because we asked them if it would be okay - and then they had to ask so many different people.. And the crowds were pretty big, but we didn't spend too much time on Broadway St. and never went into any of the bars - but it was still a lot of fun!
