In Your Own Words (a.k.a. Our Favorite Nashville Pedal Tavern Reviews)
See the city while feeling like you’re having a party
This is one of the most fun things you can do in Nashville! It’s a great way to see the city while feeling like you’re having a party. We met some really cool people on our tour, and our tour guide was hysterical, fun, truly couldn’t be better. 10/10 recommend doing a Pedal Tavern if you haven’t- I’ve done it 3 times by now and will be sure to again!

The whole experience easy and stress-free!
This was such a great time!!! YES, you actually have to pedal and NO, you will not be completely exhausted by the end- it’s a team effort! Mark was our tour leader and he was SO FUN! Nice little diverse playlist with all music genres. We pre-ordered our drinks from the website, and picked them up right at the meeting point for the start of the tour making the whole experience easy and stress-free! Definitely recommend this as an alternative to the way more expensive bus tours for something cool and different! (Trish Medeiros – Google Review)
Fun has no age limit!
We did this as part of a girls weekend with 5 ‘women of a certain age’, and it was an absolute blast. Jeremy was our driver who said he feeds off the energy of the guests and obviously we had the best group of people because it was non-stop singing and laughing from the moment we left the parking lot. This is like a mashup of a karaoke bar, sing-along drinking game and amusement park ride. Sure you can dial it down, (and drink as much or as little as you like of course) but why not crank up the volume and enjoy this for what it is: one of the best things to do in Nashville!

A+++++
This was such a fun experience. Our company booked for a group outing. None of us had ever done this before and it ended up being a blast. Our driver, Christian, absolutely made our night. His energy was contagious. He had us laughing and singing the entire time. Christian was A+++++ (Rachel H – Tripadvisor)
A must-have activity for our trip
This was my 2nd booking with Nashville Pedal Tavern Tour. I highly recommend this business. The booking agent went out of her way to accommodate my event, followed up multiple times, and moved our tour to the next day when travel arrangements changed. Seth, our driver, was very cool while still maintaining professionalism. He navigated the Broadway strip expertly (and safely) while engaging with our crew. Everyone agreed that this was a must-have activity for our trip. If you are in town for a bachelor/bachelorette party, birthday party ages 21-50) or even a girls/guys weekend, book this tour and take lots of pictures. Kick@55Fitness (Google Review)
We had all become best friends!
We went on the Pedal Tavern for my 21st birthday and it was the HIGHLIGHT of the whole trip! If you are with a group and going to Nashville, you have to do this!! I was SO MUCH fun and worth every penny! The music and energy was incredible! We had Ryan as our driver and he was AMAZING – we laughed, smiled, sang, and danced the whole entire time!! He even made sure to be personable with each of us. There were 5 of us in my group and 6 other people who were all from Canada. They were so enthusiastic and fun, we even ran into them later that night on Broadway and had to get a pic!! It felt like we had all become best friends haha!
Halfway through the tour, you get to stop for a bathroom break and go into a suggested bar for a quick drink! The Pedal Tavern was very organized and really had all their ducks in a row! You could tell that each of their employees knew how to have and create a good time!
You may be thinking that the pedaling would be exhausting or too much of a workout, but that was not the case at all. It is a low-motored vehicle so the pedaling part is mainly when going uphill and the driver will tell you when to pedal most. There are a few spots on the cart thingy too where you don’t even have pedals below you so it was very relaxing and enjoyable!! I cannot recommend the Pedaling Tavern enough!
