Planning a Nashville girls trip or Nashville girls weekend? Whether you’re marking a milestone birthday, reuniting with college friends, or just craving a getaway with your favorite people, Nashville delivers.
I’m Christine, a Nashville local who’s spent the last decade hosting thousands of guests on tours through Nashville, exploring the city’s best restaurants and attractions, and helping groups make the most of their time here. I know exactly where to find the most photo-worthy murals, the live music spots that locals actually love, and the experiences that turn a fun trip into an unforgettable one.
This guide is your insider pass to the best things to do in Nashville for women, from indulgent spa afternoons to dance parties on wheels.
The Best Daytime Activities for a Nashville Girls Trip
Nashville days are made for exploring, laughing, eating, and making memories you’ll still be talking about years from now. Whether your group is into food, shopping, or sightseeing without the rush, these experiences set the tone for an amazing weekend.
Downtown Nashville Food Tour
If you only pick one structured activity during your Nashville girls weekend, make it the Downtown Nashville Food Tour. We visit locally-owned restaurants you’d likely never find on your own, sampling dishes that represent the city’s food scene at its finest. Think tender smoked brisket you can only get on our tour, award-winning restaurants, and three alcoholic drinks.
The pace is relaxed so you have time for conversation, photos, and soaking in the atmosphere. My guides and I have personal connections with every chef, bartender, and owner we visit, so you’ll feel like VIPs at every stop.
Why it’s perfect for a girls trip:
Combines food, drinks, and history in one
Plenty of time to chat and bond
Insider access to Nashville’s dining scene
All-inclusive pricing with no surprise tabs
Christine’s Insider Tip: Book for your first full day in town, you’ll discover favorite spots to revisit and get insider recommendations tailored to your group.
Murals & Mimosas Tour
The Murals & Mimosas Tour is the ultimate girls trip starter: a mix of sightseeing, a built-in group photo shoot, and celebratory drinks. You’ll hit Nashville’s most famous mural walls, plus hidden gems your Instagram followers haven’t seen, with a guide who knows the best angles and lighting.
The finale is a round of mimosas and light bites, making it a perfect mid-morning adventure.
Why it’s perfect for a Nashville girls weekend:
Professional-level photos without hiring a photographer
Fun and social with plenty of laughs
No rushing between stops, there’s plenty of time to enjoy
Christine’s Insider Tip: Coordinate outfits for a cohesive look in photos like matching boots, denim jackets, or bold pops of color work beautifully.
Music City Brew Hop
If your group enjoys beer, cider, seltzers, or simply a laid-back afternoon, the Music City Brew Hop is a must. This hop-on, hop-off trolley takes you to the city’s best breweries, from cozy taprooms to sprawling beer gardens. Choose the artsy East Loop for murals and indie breweries, or the West Loop for lively spots with live music.
Why it works for a girls trip:
Flexible route and schedule
Zero transportation hassle
Variety of brewery styles and atmospheres
Most breweries offer seltzers and ciders for non beer drinkers
Christine’s Insider Tip: I recommend the East Loop for a girls trip - it’s more relaxed, colorful, and photogenic.
Nashville Golf Cart City & Shopping Tours
These open-air tours let you see Nashville’s highlights without sore feet or crowded buses. Choose a mural route for photo ops or a shopping-focused route for boutique finds. Guides double as photographers and storytellers, making the ride as fun as the stops.
Why it’s great for a girls weekend:
Fast, breezy way to see the city
Fully customizable for your group’s vibe
Great mix of sightseeing and local shopping
Christine’s Insider Tip: For shopping tours, ask for a mix of boutiques and vintage shops and you’ll find unique pieces you can’t get anywhere else.
Pampering & Unique Experiences for a Nashville Girls Weekend
A great girls trip blends high-energy fun with moments to recharge and indulge. These experiences bring the relaxation and the local charm.
Lemon Laine Custom Face Oil Bar
Lemon Laine is part spa, part beauty lab, and part wine bar, making it perfect for an afternoon of indulgence. You’ll sip wine while a beauty guide walks you through natural skincare ingredients, then blend a custom face oil tailored to your skin type.
The space is light, airy, and photogenic, so the whole experience feels like an Instagrammable moment. You leave with a product that’s not just a souvenir, but something you’ll actually use long after the trip.
Why it’s perfect for a girls trip:
Combines self-care with socializing
Personalized take-home gift for everyone
Chic setting ideal for photos
Christine’s Insider Tip: Book early afternoon, then head to a nearby wine or cocktail bar to keep the relaxed vibe going.
Private Lingerie Party at Darlin’ Lingerie
A Private Lingerie Party at Darlin’ Lingerie is one of the most unique experiences you can book for a Nashville girls trip. This Germantown boutique feels like stepping into a Parisian salon with warm lighting, curated displays, and racks of gorgeous pieces you won’t find in chain stores. This store is incredibly size inclusive and and they have new arrivals weekly.
Owner Katie has a gift for making women feel confident and comfortable. Whether you’ve been shopping for lingerie for years or this is your first boutique experience, she makes the evening fun and celebratory.
Your group has the shop entirely to yourselves after hours. There’s champagne, professional fittings, private try-on time, and the kind of group laughter that turns into inside jokes for years.
Why it’s perfect for a girls weekend:
Exclusive, award-winning boutique atmosphere
Goop-featured and nationally recognized
Professional fittings that make everyone look and feel amazing
BYO bubbly to make it a party
Just $15 to reserve your private event
Christine’s Insider Tip: Pair your session with dinner in Germantown - We recommend Henrietta Red, 5th and Taylor, or Tailor for dinner - you’ll already be dressed to impress.
Spa Day at Escape Day Spa or Rosewood Boutique & Spa
Every Nashville girls weekend needs a little downtime, and a spa day is the perfect reset between nights out. Both Escape Day Spa and Rosewood Boutique & Spa are locally owned and experienced in hosting small groups.
Escape offers a peaceful retreat with deep tissue massages, aromatherapy facials, and body wraps. Rosewood is an intimate boutique spa known for its custom treatments and attentive service. Either can put together a half- or full-day package tailored to your group’s needs.
Why it’s perfect for a girls trip:
Private or semi-private rooms for groups
Customizable treatment packages
Luxurious yet relaxed atmosphere
Christine’s Insider Tip: Reserve weeks in advance for Saturday spots.
Boutique Hotel Pool Passes
Sometimes the best afternoon on a Nashville girls trip is spent doing absolutely nothing, preferably by a rooftop pool with a cocktail. Hotels like The Graduate, Holston House, and Omni Nashville offer day passes, giving you access to their stylish pools, lounges, and food/drink service without booking a room.
It’s a low-effort, high-luxury way to relax, people-watch, and catch up with friends.
Why it’s perfect for a girls weekend:
Rooftop views without the rooftop bar crowd
Full hotel amenities for the day
Great mid-trip recharge activity
Christine’s Insider Tip: Book passes early in summer because they sell out fast.
