What is Music City Party Tub?

Basically, the best thing to do in Nashville.

The Music City Party Tub is a private party bus in Nashville with a hot tub/pool and operates year-round!

During the winter months, the tub is filled with hot water, and during the summer, it’s converted into a pool filled with cool water; it’s the best of both worlds.

The tub is on a partially enclosed trailer attached to a pickup truck that will drive you around the city of Nashville for 2 hours (most of the party buses are only an hour and a half), or you can even add on an additional hour for a discounted price!

Our group ended up getting an additional 30-minute ride because of a technical difficulty with the speakers; no complaints because we got to do another lap around the city! I have to give our driver a thumbs up for A+ customer service.

The party bus also rides in all weather conditions but may need to be rescheduled if the roads are too icy in the winter or if there’s bad lighting. Other than that, the tour will go in all weather conditions and even has a roof and windows that can be put up for windy or rainy days!

You can have up to 10 people in your group or add on an additional four people for an upcharge per person!

I had a group of five, and I feel like 2 hours was plenty of time to ride around. However, you may want to consider adding on an additional hour for larger groups so everyone can get a sufficient amount of time in the tub (6-7 people can fit at once)!

Here are some answered FAQ‘s!

This party bus runs during the day and into the night (the last reservation starts at 8 pm) until the streets are closed off for the nighttime party crowd.

Another unique thing about this company is that they don’t require a deposit for your booking; we only had to pay in full at the end of our tour, and we were able to split the cost between our party, it was so easy!

We (a group of 5) paid a total of $525 to rent the party tub for 2 hours; $105/person (although we split it 4 ways because I didn’t want the bride to pay), so I guess it was actually around $130/person which I thought was pretty cheap, to be honest.

Also, holiday or large event weekends throughout the year have an upcharge, so be sure to get a quote depending on the dates of your trip!

I wouldn’t say it was my first thought, but it did come to mind: “How the heck is this legal”?

Apparently, Nashville has some pretty lenient laws when it comes to partying around Broadway and Downtown!

I witnessed this first hand when a cop was behind us on the road flashing his lights and blaring his siren before veering off onto the highway; I guess he was also in “party mode,” that’s something that doesn’t happen often.

No seatbelts, open containers, all while dancing in a hot tub on a trailer… I’ll take it.

All I know is Courtney kept telling me that the party tub was by far the most fun thing we did all weekend, which says a lot considering we went to Miranda Lambert’s bar like 15 times over the weekend, lol.

Who’s On Board?

Our group had the best driver and bartender.

As I said, this is a private tour, so aside from our bachelorette party, there were only two other people on board: our driver and our bartender.

We were blessed to have the owner himself, Guy, drive our group around Downtown and Broadway while our bad@** server Victoria served us drinks, took pictures, and DJ’d the entire ride!

Both of them were honestly awesome, with so much southern hospitality and a great sense of humor; these people know how to party!

Victoria was a ton of fun to have in the back with us! We kept trying to convince her to get in the pool, but we didn’t want to get her into trouble (sorry, V, next time you can join the party)!

What To Expect

Expect the unexpected.

Our journey began on our 20-minute walk over to our pickup location, a grocery store called The Turnip Truck.

Upon arrival, we could grab any last-minute snacks and drinks before getting picked up; there’s also a liquor/beer store across the street called 12th and Pine.

It’s BYOB, so make sure to grab enough for your entire ride; better more than less!

Also, you’ll want to arrive 15-30 minutes early to sign waivers and go over a few things, so it doesn’t cut into your riding time!

I chose to reserve the latest spot available (8 pm) for our tour because I thought it would be the most enjoyable in the dark, surrounded by the nightlife with music and lights; I was right!

I also didn’t want to get too rowdy during the day and not make it through the rest of the night.

Plus, I felt like it may have been a little awkward parading around the town in our bathing suits during the day when the more “PG-Rated” crowd of Nashville (if that’s even a thing) was out and about.

Although we did begin the tour during daylight hours, it wasn’t long after that the entire vibe had shifted once it got dark out.

Either way, it’s a blast, but I would highly recommend booking a tour at night if it fits into your schedule!

I think the first 30-minutes of our tour, we were all in awe by how the heck Guy was maneuvering this enormous trailer through the city of Nashville without side-swiping things; props to you, there’s no way I wouldn’t have hit anything and everything in sight.

We got to tour around a few different places in Nashville, such as Broadway, Midtown, the Gulch, the River, Music Row, SoBro, and the Nissan Stadium; to be honest, I’m not entirely sure where we went, it was dark, and we were having fun.

One of the only things I think any of us remember is laughing, dancing, singing, and screaming to the crowd and other party buses driving through the town.

Every time we passed another party bus, they would all go crazy over ours; I guess I wasn’t the only one that hadn’t seen a hot tub on wheels before!

A girl at a bachelorette party on another bus even yelled to us “that she wished she was on ours” – I hope it wasn’t the bride!

Halfway through our ride, we stopped for a bathroom break at a random bar/restaurant (from what I remember, it looked pretty nice) in Downtown Nashville.

Our girl, Victoria, handed us bright red bathrobes to put on over our bathing suits.

As we ran through the bar in our robes and headed towards the bathrooms, I’ve never received such bizarre looks in my life (surprisingly, with everything I’ve done).

While in the bathroom, a woman handed Courtney $20 and congratulated her on her engagement; our bachelorette group frantically ran to the bar (we were on a schedule) to grab a few shots with our bathroom earnings.

We asked the bartender what we could get for $20 as he laughed and basically told us nothing; he ended up making us a drink and pouring it into five shot glasses to split.

It’s a good thing the bus only ran for 2 hours; it would probably be a bit more challenging to find our way home if we rode around any longer drinking; luckily, our driver was generous enough to drop us back off at our Airbnb.

Remember, you are being served drinks for 2 hours straight, so there’s no escaping the outcome.

As I always preach, life’s about balance; this was a unique experience and one time to go all out!

Courtney has been my best friggin’ friend for years, and we’ve been waiting for this day! We had to go out with one last shebang!

Our tour eventually ended around 10 pm, so we still had plenty of time to freshen up and head out to the bars afterward, considering everything is open until 2 or 3 am. Plus, we had quite the pre-game on the bus, so we were ahead of the game.
