Overview

Enjoy a personal and intensive Civil War tour along the path of the Tennessee Campaign fought between General John Schofield and General John Bell Hood's armies between Spring Hill and Nashville. The stories are gut wrenching and endearing of these men who fought for their beliefs. Cousin against cousin, even brother against brother. With some levity along the way, you'll learn a great deal about the struggle in a personal and appealing way. We'll drive, look, stop and walk our way through history.

    Meeting and pickup

    I will pick you up at your hotel or AirBNB or a pre-determined agreed upon location and return you when the tour is done. My Toyota Highlander seats 4 passengers comfortably but can accommodate 6 with the backseat, although it is a little tight and harder to get into, but it's perfect for smaller adults or kids. If more than 6 are desired, we can rent a van for up to 12 or 15 at an extra cost. Typically they run $500-$600. Reach out if that's an interest.
