Fantastic to be in the actual room where so many hits were made, to be allowed to touch - even to play the piano used by Elvis, the organ used to back Roy Orbison, etc. etc. all this with a knowledgeable guide and snatches of the hits that made the place famous. If you were around at the time these... More

This tour was one of the best we did while visiting Nashville. The tour guide was very informative and friendly. He took all the time we needed and interacted with everyone answering all questions politely and was obviously very knowledgable.

We opted for the additonal tour of RCA Studio. It was well worth the visit as our guide was very informative and knew what she was talking about. It is like stepping back into the 50's when you get there. Worth the trip and the extra $$$

A very modest building, but to know that the greats have been there is awesome. Do yourself a favour and go

Enjoyed our tour, was very interesting to hear stories relating to music legends such as Elvis, Buddy Holly, Dolly Parton etc We also got to have our phot taken at the piano Elvis played at whilst recording there. The tour lasted around an hour and we felt like it was a bit rushed and would have liked a bit more... More

It's much smaller than expected but the tour guide is very knowledgeable and shared many tidbits not everyone would know. Short and interesting tour.

We had a group of high school Guitar students and they got to record a CD in this studio (For a very high fee of $800). The guides and staff were amazing and so very friendly! This really gave me goose bumps after hearing the history of the studio and several of us were moved to tears during the tour,... More

Pick-up only from Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. Small group with highly informed guide. You can sit and play the piano used in many of Elvis's records.

Tour guide was great and knew so many details about artists and their recordings out of Studio B. Was a surprisingly emotional tour, seeing some of the original instruments used in these recordings transported us to different times in the studio's unique history. Tour guide was knowledgeable but allowed the walls to speak for themselves at times. Truly not to... More
