Can’t wait for next year!
My friends and I had so much fun! We began our holiday journey at the Donut Distillery and enjoyed their amazing donuts before boarding our trolley. Our trolley ride involved festive singing and being able to “ooo” and “awwww” at many of the houses in East Nashville. We enjoyed the Home Alone pop up bar and ended our journey at the beautiful tree downtown where we were able to take beautiful photos. I hope this can become a holiday tradition!

The Most Wonderful Time of The Year
Music City Brew Hop Holiday Lights tour was absolutely so much holiday fun. Starting point was the Donut Distillery where Music City Brew hop checks you in. Go Early to enjoy their Holiday Decor and enjoy one of their many unique donut shots . So Delicious. We boarded our trolley and meet our Fantastic Driver Michael they do such a great job decking the decor on the inside of the trolley so cute and festive . Once we were all boarded off we went touring the beautiful decorated houses of east Nashville while jamming to Christmas songs the lights tour is roughly 35 -40 minutes . From the neighborhood we headed to our first stop East Nashville Beer Works for their Home Alone Theme Pop Up Experience everyone had to chance to enjoy their libations and order a lil bite to eat . Michael let us know when it was departure time and he was experienced on rounding folks up we all laughed at his wrestling skills. Once boarded we headed to the next stop which is Downtown Nashville at the Capitol Christmas Tree and it did not disappoint. We had opportunity for pictures and a random Christmas Carol session. Then sadly you are getting close to the end of the 2 hour tour. With quick ride back across the river to Donut Distillery we all departed with Joyful Hearts and a Night to Remember . This is our second year with Music City Brew Hop Holiday lights tour. The first year we booked a public tour but this year we decided to do a private buy out and it was totally worth it. Highly Recommend Booking this Tour it is so Very Merry Fun

Our new favorite Christmas tradition with family and friends
The Music City Brew Hops Holiday Lights Trolley Tour will be an annual Christmas tradition for our family and friends for as long as its around. Their team was so easy to work and communicate with to get our party of 16 organized and ready to enjoy the evening. Our driver Michael immediately got us all in the Christmas spirit with great music, humor and a laid back demeanor. The food, beverages and people at East Nashville Beer Works and Donut Distillery were top notch as always. In between, the holiday lights, downtown Christmas tree and time spent together for 2 hours on a decked out trolley created some holiday memories that we'll cherish forever.

What lights?
Lights not guaranteed. Drove through housing areas. Most houses not lit up. Fun with a group but really confusing why start at the donut district and at the end of the tour, the bar be closed!!!!
Response from the operator: Hi Lisa and thanks for leaving a review! Prior to your tour we let your group know that part of this adventure is "hunting Christmas lights" and we can't guarantee house displays. While we drive through the historic Lockeland Springs neighborhood, occasionally and especially earlier in the season, some houses have not put their lights out yet. In lieu of this we created amazing stops for the tour including the 'Home Alone' pop-up stop at East Nashville Beer Works and a stop at the downtown Christmas Tree for photo ops. While we do depart from the Donut Distillery for our late tours (8pm or later) unfortunately they have to keep business hours. This is why we also have a relationship with Velvet Taco (next door) which allows groups to come in and use the restroom, purchase food and drinks, etc. Velvet Taco is open until 2am and has an inviting atmosphere for our guests. We hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday season and thanks for leaving us a 4 star review! Cheers! Music City Brew Hop

Nashville
The seats on the trolly were very small not much leg room. Very little Christmas lights to see. We did not get to go to the downtown Christmas tree instead went to a small Christmas Tree.
Response from the operator: Hi there, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear parts of the tour didn’t meet your expectations. Our Holiday Lights Tour route focuses on neighborhood displays with music and festive fun aboard our trolley rather than a large-scale light show. We appreciate your thoughts on seating and stops. Regarding the Christmas tree, we do visit the downtown tree at Union & 3rd this year. Because the State Capitol is under construction and has no accessible tree on display, this is one of our designated stops for 2025. Thank you again for riding with us, and happy holidays!

Why this scores 54
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
21+ Nashville Christmas Pop-Up Trolley Crawl: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nashville.
How much does 21+ Nashville Christmas Pop-Up Trolley Crawl cost?
+
Prices start at $45 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nashville usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 21+ Nashville Christmas Pop-Up Trolley Crawl take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nashville is not rushed.
Is 21+ Nashville Christmas Pop-Up Trolley Crawl worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 24 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nashville, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 21+ Nashville Christmas Pop-Up Trolley Crawl?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 21+ Nashville Christmas Pop-Up Trolley Crawl suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 21+ Nashville Christmas Pop-Up Trolley Crawl?
+
Around 8 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nashville can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nashville and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 21+ Nashville Christmas Pop-Up Trolley Crawl start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nashville within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Nashville?
+
Nashville's activity mix is unusually music-heavy: Ryman and Opry backstage tours, RCA Studio B sessions, songwriter rounds and honky-tonk crawls on Broadway. Around that sit distillery runs to Lynchburg and general-admission pedal taverns. Outty Ranking penalises the crawl operators that oversell group size, which is the most common complaint in this city. On Outty we rank every Nashville experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Nashville: Authentic Food Tour with 5 Tastings of Local Dishes, Nashville's Wildest Honky Tonk Public Party Bus (21+), Nashville RCA Studio B & Country Music Hall of Fame Ticket Combo. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Nashville?
+
April to May and September to October, when patios open and the humidity drops. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Nashville?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in 21+ Nashville Christmas Pop-Up Trolley Crawl?
+
Included: Bottled water; (4) STOPS including East Nashville Beer Works, (3) Holiday Pop-Ups, and Downtown Christmas; Festive Holiday Music on the Trolley; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: A Bad Time. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+

What languages is 21+ Nashville Christmas Pop-Up Trolley Crawl offered in?
+

Is 21+ Nashville Christmas Pop-Up Trolley Crawl wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
