Getting Around

To really see all of Nashville's top sights, driving is the best way to get around. If you plan to spend most of your time in the downtown area, a free trolley service called the LunchLINE is available for hopping on and off at nine stops around town. A few neighborhoods are easily explored on foot and with taxis, like Germantown and the center of downtown.

Best time to Visit

Spring and fall sees Nashville's weather at its most delightful and, as an added bonus, lots of local hotels choose these times of year to drop their prices. That's not to say it can't be worth enduring the sky-high temperatures of the summer months in order to enjoy the many events and festivals in this peak period. Just be aware that when we say sky-high, we mean sky-high; we're talking up to 90 F, and sometimes even more.

What to Pack

Nashville is a very chilled-out place indeed, where your priorities are more likely to center on staying cool and comfy than on looking chic. With that in mind, here are some Nashville must-packs:

  • Insect repellent: Things get pretty buggy pretty fast in the summer. Keep the beasts at bay by having insect repellent to hand at all times.
  • Shoes for walking: Downtown Nashville is easy (and fun) to explore on foot, but it's got hills aplenty, so always bring shoes you can walk in.
  • Sunglasses: A winter visit doesn't mean no sun. You'll regularly feel the need to slip on some sunglasses, so don't forget to pack your best pair.
