Nashville Tour Co. is a one stop shop when it comes to exploring all things Music City. Slated as the only management hospitality group with a diverse collection of experiential tour and event companies that cater to tourists, locals, and corporate groups in Nashville, their mission is to help elevate their guests’ experiences while also helping them create lasting memories right in the heart of our city.
Husband-and-wife duo, Brian and Angie Gleason, made the move from Minnesota to Nashville in 2012 when Angie’s close childhood friend, Pete, mentioned he was looking for someone to help manage his business, the Nashville Pedal Tavern. With Angie’s experience managing a business in Minneapolis and Brian’s career as a full-time musician, the pair decided it would be a great fit. Ultimately, they took a chance and headed south!
“We both loved Nashville and thought, ‘why not give this quirky opportunity a try for a couple of years before settling down,’” Angie shares. “What started as a short-term adventure turned into something much bigger—13 years later, we're still here, still having fun, and now running multiple businesses together.”
It didn’t take long for Nashville Pedal Tavern to become a Nashville staple, and the Gleasons - along with their business partner, Pete - knew it was time to evolve. While they dabbled in several markets, they came to the conclusion that they needed a place where they could combine their expertise and bring everything together; from here, Nashville Tour Co. was born!
With Nashville Pedal Tavern, Nashville Toons, Bevē Curated, and Fab Tap on their roster, guests have easy access to specially curated experiences. Nashville Pedal Tavern offers an entertaining perspective to touring Nashville; with your own personal tour guide - who doubles as your bartender - tourists and locals get to soak in all the fun Music City has to offer… and even receive a large variety of drink specials from their partner bars in Lower Broadway & Midtown! Nashville Toons delivers a relaxing Percy Priest lake outing for guests of all ages on their very own custom double-decker pontoons. The team at Nashville Toons ensures all outings include a clean onboard bathroom, waterslide, lily pad, pool noodles, two levels of seating, coolers stocked with ice, and custom tabletop setups for your snacks and drinks. While Bevē Curated first started out as a boutique shopping tour, it has since emerged into a full-service itinerary planning and experience company with luxurious shopping tours and curated experiences. Whether it be for a birthday party, night out, or beyond, Bevē Curated is a must for group transportation - and includes a private driver and hostess! Their newest business, Fab Tap, has continued to make waves in Nashville with their prestige mobile beverage services. Perfect for events such as weddings, birthday parties, neighborhood events, community celebrations, graduations, client appreciation, housewarming parties and more, Fab Tap was built off of a repurposed Airstream and offers three different units to choose from. With options ranging from four taps with snack dispensers to three taps, the team also assists in creating an ideal drink menu with the addition of ice cream socials and more.
By creating a hospitality management group, Brian and Angie have been able to help grow their offerings as well as expand their clientele alongside their business partners Pete, Dave, and Amy. Not to mention, they thoroughly enjoyed building community, credibility, and brand trust every step of the way. While the pair never intended on starting a business together, they couldn’t imagine it any other way. Passionate about helping clients find unique and fun opportunities, Nashville Tour Co. thrives in catering each experience to the individual guest.
“We take the time to understand their vision, preferences, and priorities, then provide curated suggestions and work together to finalize the details. It's all about creating something that feels personal, seamless, and one-of-a-kind,” Angie says. “With Nashville growing so quickly, it’s easy to get distracted by every shiny new opportunity or trend… we’ve learned that chasing what’s ‘next’ can cause you to lose sight of what truly matters - and for us, that means staying grounded in our purpose, supporting our teams, staying true to what we do best, and consistently delivering high-quality experiences.”
Nashville Tour Co. encourages locals to join in on the fun, too! Whether you are showing an out-of-towner the ropes of Music City or simply branching out and planning to explore more local businesses, the team behind Nashville Tour Co. would love to help curate an exciting day for you to enjoy.
“We pour our heart into creating experiences that locals can trust - whether we’re helping celebrate a milestone, hosting visiting family and friends, or curating something special for their kids… we want most is for our guests not to have to worry about a thing—just enjoy their time with the people they love most,” Angie explains.
