Thinking of gifting the Civil Rights Walking Tour in Nashville!

Hey everyone! I'm considering this walking tour as a gift for my history-loving uncle. I read that it covers significant civil rights sites like the Woolworth counter. I think he'd find the stories shared really enriching! Just wondering if anyone's been on this tour and if it was worth it? Also, any tips on what to wear? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Just did the Civil Rights Tour, and wow!

I went on the Civil Rights Walking Tour in Nashville last weekend, and it was such a powerful experience. We got to see the Woolworth lunch counter and learned about the sit-ins. The guide was so knowledgeable! I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I left with a deeper understanding of Nashville's history. I highly recommend it if you're in the area!
