If you’re looking to add a splash of excitement to your Nashville trip, a party bus with a DJ and bar could be just the thing. This tour promises a two-hour cruise through downtown Nashville, complete with music, drinks, and lively company. While it’s not a deep dive into Nashville’s history or culture, it’s a guaranteed way to turn up the volume on your evening and mingle with fellow travelers.
What really draws us to this experience are two standout features: the onboard DJ spinning tunes that you can request and the chance to see Nashville’s iconic sights from a moving party. Plus, the inclusion of a bar and bartender adds a level of convenience and fun. A possible consideration is that alcohol isn’t included in the price, so you’ll want to budget for drinks separately. This tour is particularly suited to groups celebrating special occasions or anyone wanting a memorable, energetic night out with friends.
If you’re the type who enjoys dancing, music, and a bit of nightlife in a relaxed yet lively setting, this tour could be perfect. It’s also a laid-back way to see some of Nashville’s most famous streets without having to walk or navigate traffic. Just keep in mind the age requirement—you need to be 21 or older—and that drinks are purchased separately.

What’s Included and How It Works
This tour is marketed as an “epic party on wheels”. Once onboard, you’ll have access to a state-of-the-art sound system that fills the bus with energetic tunes. The onboard DJ, who can take song requests, really helps set the mood whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just out for fun. The bus is stocked with ice and cups, so you can pour your drinks (which you buy separately, since alcohol isn’t included), and it even has phone chargers and cup holders—little touches that make the ride more comfortable.
The bar and bartender are available for your beverage needs, but keep in mind that alcohol can only be purchased through their partner bar, The Green Light, and they only sell beer, seltzers, and non-liquor beverages. Liquor is not allowed, so if you’re planning a more boozy night, plan accordingly.
The Route and Sights
The bus will cruise through Broadway and Honky Tonk Highway, giving you glimpses of Nashville’s legendary music venues and neon-lit streets. It’s a moving celebration of Nashville’s musical heritage with the added fun of music playing right in your ears. Although the tour doesn’t specify exact stops, the focus is on seeing the city’s nightlife hotspots from the comfort of the bus.
What Travelers Are Saying
Reviews highlight the fun atmosphere and well-organized nature of the tour. One traveler from Canada called it a “great activity and well organized,” noting the overall positive vibe. Another praised the DJ, PJ, calling him “the BEST DJ & party host” and saying they had a great time celebrating a birthday.
However, not all reviews are glowing. A traveler from the US mentioned they missed the tour because they didn’t realize the pick-up spot was too far away, which caused them to be late. It’s a reminder to double-check the meeting location and plan transportation accordingly. Another guest pointed out that dressing warm is advisable, as the open-air bus can get chilly, especially in winter.
