A Vintage Trolley Drives You Between Nashville Breweries All Afternoon
A hop-on, hop-off trolley pass for a loop of Nashville breweries and a meadery, with about an hour at each stop you pick.
One ticket buys unlimited rides for the day on a vintage trolley that loops a handful of Nashville breweries, Friday through Sunday from 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM. The operator puts the loop at about an hour and 15 miles. Step off at a stop and the trolley swings back about an hour later, and that rhythm sets the whole day.
The conductor drives and talks, sharing beer knowledge and flagging specials at the breweries coming up. Inside the taprooms nobody guides you. Every beer, mead and plate goes on your own tab.
As of October 18, 2026, the listing charges USD 49 for an adult and USD 13 for a child aged 3 to 17, with up to 10 travelers per booking. Its calendar showed open dates on October 23 to 25, October 30 to November 1 and November 13, and no other November weekend. The operator adds that Saturdays sell out quickly.
Brewery Hop-On Hop-Off Trolley Tour of NashvilleFull-day pass for a hop-on, hop-off brewery trolley in Nashville, Friday to Sunday, 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Unlimited rides that day, bottled water and the conductor's commentary. Drinks and food are extra.www.viator.comWhere the Trolley Stops
The route map the operator supplies to the booking page lists seven stops after the downtown start, in this order: Honeytree Meadery, Stoke Haus Brewing & BBQ, TailGate Brewery East Nashville, Southern Grist, East Nashville Beer Works, Bearded Iris Brewing and Monday Night Brewing. The operator's own breweries page lists six. It leaves TailGate off and pairs Southern Grist with Xul Beer Company as a single stop.
On the day, the operator texts a schedule of stop times for each brewery, and that text is the list to plan by. Honeytree is a meadery, and mead is its craft. The operator calls Stoke Haus the newest addition to the loop, with German-style beer, house-made sodas and barbecue smoked on site, and places Monday Night's taproom in the riverfront Neuhoff development. A traveler in March 2026 named Honeytree and Stoke Haus as favorites.
One Downtown Pickup, at 11:50 AM
The only downtown departure leaves the Omni Nashville Hotel at 11:50 AM sharp, from the 5th Avenue side outside the Bongo Java coffee shop. The operator's map puts the start on 5th Avenue between Korean Veterans Boulevard and Demonbreun Street. Miss it and your first boarding happens at a brewery on the loop.
Everyone else can join at any stop, which suits anyone staying near one of them. For parties of six or more, the listing suggests starting a few stops ahead to stay clear of the downtown crowd. Show your ticket, on a phone or printed, to the conductor on first boarding. The listing says it is swapped for an armband.
An Hour at Each Stop, and the Ride Back
The operator figures on about an hour at each brewery, and a 2026 traveler called that plenty of time to taste. Another, in 2025, found the drop-off and pickup times posted on the back of the driver's seat. The trolley has no safe storage. Bags leave with you at every stop, and drinking on board is not allowed. Bottled water is on the trolley.
The trolley makes one drop back at the Omni, at 6:00 PM, and reaches every other stop once an hour. Stay at a brewery past its last pickup and the ride home is yours to arrange. A 2025 traveler wrote that staying at the last pub meant a rideshare back, and the operator's booking notes say to plan a safe ride home.
ID, Kids, Dogs and the Tab
- Anyone planning to drink needs a valid ID. The operator's booking notes say each brewery will ask for it.
- Kids can ride, and the operator says they are allowed in the breweries. It sets no minimum age and notes the day is built for adults. The listing sells child tickets for ages 3 to 17, infants sit on an adult's lap, and each booking needs an adult.
- The operator welcomes leashed dogs on the trolley and on brewery patios, and warns that a brewery may not allow dogs indoors. The listing itself mentions only service animals.
- Almost every stop serves food, the operator says, while food is generally not served on the trolley. Tips for the conductor are optional.
- The listing does not mark the trolley as wheelchair accessible, and the operator's tour pages and booking notes do not address it. Those notes describe getting on and off the trolley, walking around breweries and standing for short periods. Riders who use a wheelchair should ask the operator about boarding before booking.
- Cancel at least 24 hours before the start for a full refund. Inside 24 hours there is no refund.
- The listing lets the operator cancel for bad weather or too few travelers. The operator describes the trolley as rain or shine, with heat and air conditioning on board.
- Booking closes three hours before the 12:00 PM start, and confirmation is instant.
Pick a first stop, ride the loop once, and let the conductor's notes on what is pouring choose the second.
