Standing Where Legends Stood

The Grand Ole Opry Backstage Tour was a highlight of our girls trip! Standing on the famous circle where the microphone stands—and knowing you’re standing on a piece of country music history—gave us chills. A fun, behind-the-scenes experience that’s a must if you’re visiting Nashville. Next stop: the Ryman Auditorium!

Back Stage tour

Good overall experience but the group was to large. You couldn't hear the lady talk unless you were in the front of the group. Missed several things she said.

Great

It was great but did not last an hour. We had a small group of 6. You have to go to the ticket counter to get a printed ticket for entry. The grand ole Opry doesn’t honor viator on your phone.
