Nashville’s 1st Prohibition Cocktail Crawl: Secrets & Scandals
Overview
Nashville’s Original Prohibition Cocktail Crawl explores downtown’s jazz-era nightlife, hidden-gem bars, and true stories from a sin-soaked past. Small groups and pay-as-you-go drinks keep it flexible, fun, and full of Gatsby-era mischief.
Please note: this is a Prohibition-themed cocktail crawl, NOT a speakeasy-only tour. Nashville does not have enough true speakeasies near each other to create a walkable route. Instead, we visit a curated mix of historic, hidden-gem, and era-inspired venues for history, cocktails, and lots of laughter.
In two hours, your 5-star host leads you to four downtown venues with stories of bootleggers, corruption, and clever workarounds that kept the spirits flowing.
Drinks are optional and à la carte; some venues may offer specials or preferred pricing, but discounts are not guaranteed at every stop. The walk is under a mile and relaxed—ideal for groups, couples, bachelorettes, and curious travelers who like cocktails with crazy-but-true history!
What's Included
- Stroll sin-soaked streets & hear shocking-but-true tales.
- Discover local venues with occasional tour-only specials.
- Snap Insta-worthy shots in hidden nooks & glam spots.
- Discover 4 bootlegger-worthy venues!
- Join a Jazz Age–steeped guide, toastmaster & ringleader!
- Drinks & food – Pay as you go and ONLY buy what you want! Drinking is not required!
- Tips – Usual 20% (~$11.60) IF you have the fun we hope you do!
