Why Distillery Tours in Nashville
Nashville is a whiskey town first and a party town second, and the two mix perfectly. A distillery tour gives your group a real activity between the honky-tonks, plus a designated driver built into the ticket.
You can keep it in town with craft distilleries in Marathon Village, or make a full day of it with a trip out to Lynchburg. Book the driving tours early on bachelor weekends because they sell out.
Tennessee Whiskey Tours
Best for: Groups who want a guided multi-stop day | Price: varies by group | Group size: private groups up to 25
Tennessee Whiskey Tours runs private group trips from downtown to iconic distilleries including Jack Daniel and Uncle Nearest, plus smaller craft favorites.
Book it: Reserve the private group tour a few weeks out and confirm your pickup point downtown.
Whiskey Trail Tours
Best for: Mixed crews who want distillery, brewery, and winery in one loop | Price: from $250 for two, scaling by group | Group size: up to 25
Whiskey Trail Tours builds custom routes and is a common pick for bachelor and bachelorette parties. You choose the mix of stops.
Book it: Ask for a distillery-heavy route and lock your date early on peak weekends.
Corsair Distillery
Best for: A quick, walkable craft stop | Price: tastings and tour bookable direct | Group size: small to mid groups
Corsair Distillery was the first legal craft distillery in Nashville since Prohibition. Its 30-minute walking tour ends with five tastings poured by your guide.
Book it: Book the tour and tasting online, then post up at the Marathon taproom afterward.
Nelson's Green Brier Distillery
Best for: A polished tour with a full bar and restaurant on site | Price: guided tour with tastings | Group size: small to mid groups
Nelson's Green Brier reopened after a major renovation with daily walking tours, whiskey flights, craft cocktails, and a restaurant, so it doubles as a lunch stop.
Book it: Reserve a daytime tour, then keep the crew for cocktails and food.
Big Machine Distillery
Best for: A cheap, fast tasting near the action | Price: from $16 per person | Group size: flexible
Big Machine Distillery runs a short tour with tasting that is easy to slot into a busy day. It is the low-commitment option when you just want a quick pour.
Book it: Grab the one-hour slot online, walkable from downtown.
Jack Daniel Distillery Day Trip
Best for: The bucket-list whiskey pilgrimage | Price: from $144 per person | Group size: bus groups
A guided Jack Daniel day trip runs about seven hours round trip to Lynchburg with tastings included. Some versions add BBQ and music.
Book it: This one eats a whole day, so plan it for your slower morning and book a few weeks ahead.
Planning Tips
- Book any driving tour at least two to three weeks out on bachelor weekends. They sell out first.
- Do the all-day Lynchburg trip on your recovery day, not the night before a big evening out.
- Confirm whether tastings are included or add-on, and whether the tour picks up downtown.
- Assign one person to hold the reservation and share the pickup time in the group chat.
