Tours of Nashville Stars' Homes

      The lifeblood of Nashville, Tennessee is the music industry; indeed, the city's nickname is "Music City." Many famous musicians call Nashville home, not only because of the many studios and record labels in the city, but because locals are accustomed to seeing musicians around town and generally leave them alone. It is no surprise that tours of stars' homes in Nashville focus on the homes of music industry icons.

    Gray Line Nashville

    • Gray Line's bus tour of stars' homes focuses on icons of country music. The 3-hour tour is available seven days a week beginning at either 9:00 a.m. or 1:30 p.m., and drives by the homes of Alan Jackson, Martina McBride, Trisha Yearwood, and many other country music greats. The tour is $40 for adults and $20 for children.

    Music City Tours

    • Many of the homes featured in Music City Tours' "Homes of the Stars" sightseeing tour are the same as homes seen on the Gray Line tour.

The tour runs seven days a week at 9:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m., and also costs $40 for adults and $20 for children, with a reduced rate of $39 for seniors.
