Hello. I'm Jenny C. (in the voice of Johnny Cash lol). Please check out the 12 private tours and road trips I offer on this site, or I can customize exactly what you're looking for! So you're coming to Tennessee? Well, welcome!! There's no shortage of fun here, it's the land of music, whiskey, scenery, history, you name it! I can help you with the most incredible tour or trip ever, diving into music history, songwriting and recording, celebrity mansions, distillery tours, factory tours, wine and waterfalls, Civil War history, ancient mounds, The Americana Music Triangle, whatever you're here for! I offer everything from half-day Nashville city tours to week-long road trips covering ground from the Great Smoky Mountains to Nashville to Memphis to Natchez to New Orleans, and everything in between. We can stay or base in Nashville, or start in one city and end in another. If you can dream it, we can do it! I'm a big fan of the Southeast region. Since 2014 I've professionally guided hundreds of memorable tours, created custom curated experiences, and led epic road trips for thousands of guests from all over the world. Whether you have a group of 1 or 100, I can organize any transportation needs. I offer personalized planning, expert guiding, professional driving, step-on guide services, and site coordinating for solos, families, and friends, or student, corporate, and convention groups. I've even written and performed custom surprise songs for folks! It's everything rolled into one, so your job is to relax and have an amazing adventure. :-) Nashville is my chosen home, and I love it here! Originally from Oklahoma, the creative energy of Nashville attracted me like a magnet in 2008. For many years I taught public school. I also spent years touring and performing music all over Europe and the US as a Nashville singer-songwriter... what a ride! My curious personality keeps me traveling all over. I love solo exploring and taking all kinds of tours, plus detours! When I'm not on the road or in a plane, I enjoy spending time with my sweet family, including my 4 adult kids and 2 grandkids. I also love a good hike in a gorgeous setting, or a refreshing kayak paddle on a river or lake. Come see me in Tennessee and let's roll!

Nashville is a dynamic place, and I like to say it has a 'split personality' - part Music City and part Athens of the South, giving us an interesting cultural combination that is both entertaining and fascinating. We're Tootsie's and The Schermerhorn, The Grand Ole Opry and Vanderbilt, Cooter's and Parnassus, Third Man Records and Cheekwood. We really do have it all here. My full-day private tour is the best way to discover Nashville. I'll show you my favorite city front to back. We can explore downtown, plus surrounding areas. Charming neighborhoods, funky businesses, historic sites, food, architecture, music, you name it. I'll present an overview of Nashville to get your feedback, then tailor the tour to your preferences. As I make suggestions, we'll hop out as much or little as you like in areas like Downtown, East Nashville, Music Valley, Belle Meade and more. There's even time to pop into a museum or two if you feel like it. Come explore with me and see why Nashville is full of both personalities!
Very knowledgeable and informative. Very easy-going made us feel welcome and it was like we’ve known her all our lives. Would definitely book her again.
My tour with Jenny was amazing. Jenny is super knowledgeable on all things Nashville, including music, history, places to eat and the best places to experience live music. My day spent with Jenny felt like being with an old friend, she made sure to tailor the tour to my likes and we had an absolute blast. I would highly recommend anyone takes a tour with Jenny.
We so enjoyed our tour with Jenny C. She has a great knowledge of Nashville's U.S. history and its music history. She took time to personalize the tour by stopping at record stores for my husband and beautiful old neighborhoods for me. She was fun to spend the day with! She shared her wealth of Information about Nashville and gave us great suggestions for local restaurants and jazz music options.
There were 12 family and friends in our group. We decided to book an all day tour with Jenny . Before our trip began I was in touch with Jenny she was very responsive and provided information prior to us getting to Nashville. The van was very comfortable and Jenny always made sure that the temperature was just right. Jenny was friendly, and informative. She was able to give us a great deal of history about the area. Jenny gave us recommendations for things to do, places to eat. Jenny was generous with her time, we never felt rushed. We had time off the van for lunch. We were able to get off the van at places we wanted to visit. When we were done with the day, she made herself available to us for any questions we may have while visiting the area. We in fact contacted her several times following our tour and she again was very responsive. This tour made our visit to Nashville wonderful.
Amazing! Jenny is a fabulous guide. We scheduled her for a full day in Nashville and couldn’t have been happier. Jenny is a former teacher. She has deep knowledge of all that is TN. And, she’s happy and fun to be around . Highly recommend Jenny for all of your TN tour needs!
Jenny is an absolute treasure. Full of knowledge and fun facts. We had her for our first day in Nashville. She showed us all the around the city and helped us to navigate the remainder of our week. Her coach is pristine and her driving skills are top notch. Not to mention the fact that she brought her ice filled cooler for our beverages, this certainly added more bonus points. I would highly recommend her.

I own a terrific luxury tour van; a black on black medium roof Transit 350 for up to 14 guests, just like the limo companies in Nashville use! I am also licensed and insured for passenger transport (at times, I may substitute another luxury van or SUV). Food, drinks, and adult beverages are welcome on board... yes, passengers can drink spirits in a vehicle in Tennessee! Vehicle is non-smoking, and I will provide bottled water for everyone. If you request a large cooler with ice, please let me know in advance and I got you covered! :)
