Bootleg & Barrels Tour - I purchased the Bootleg & Barrels tour for my boyfriend’s birthday and he loved it! Ryen, our tour guide, was awesome! We learned so much about the history of whisky. He was so informative and we loved each and every story from the first bar to the third. If you can book with Ryen you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Ryen for such an awesome time. We really do appreciate all you did to make our experience special and fun.

Great whiskey, great stories - Bootleg and Barrels was such a fun experience. Our guide, Ryne, is an excellent storyteller and clearly passionate about Tennessee history, folklore and whiskey. Each of the three establishments we visited had a great, yet unique vibe. We enjoyed each of the whiskey flights we purchased, as well as some recommended cocktails. We would definitely recommend this experience for anyone looking for an elevated whiskey tasting (and educational) experience. An afternoon with Ryne will not disappoint.

Speakeasy Tour with a great guide and fun vibes - We had an amazing time on the speakeasy tour with Ryne! He was incredibly knowledgeable, fun, and engaging—truly the perfect guide for exploring Nashville’s hidden gems. Every stop felt like a secret worth sharing, with great drinks, cool history, and an atmosphere you can't find just anywhere. Ryne made the whole experience feel personalized and seamless, like we were out with a group of friends. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to experience a unique and unforgettable side of the city. Thanks, Ryne!

Truth be Told... - Truth be told I've been on a few tours around the country. I can honestly say the Bootleg & Barrels Tour was top notch. Informative and very entertaining. Too often you get canned speeches and memorized scripts rushing through the process. This tour was at a great pace and left you wanting to mimic the story telling to learn more about Nashville. Well done!
