Why a Food Tour is Perfect for Your Next Corporate Event in Nashville

Whether you’re traveling to Nashville for business or you and your colleagues are based right here in Music City, finding an activity that will engage and grow your team can sometimes turn into a daunting task.

Sure, you’re seeking one of Nashville’s best team building exercises that is both entertaining and meaningful for your work family, but perhaps opting for happy hour at one of Broadway’s bustling honkey tonks isn’t exactly the right move.

Nashville is filled with all sorts of team building activities, but when considering a group of people with varied interests and abilities, the list of viable options tends to get smaller and smaller.

Fortunately, there’s one activity that we know everybody can get behind: eating great food. 

Because when you take the opportunity to eat together and mix it with the chance to learn together — particularly while exploring some of Nashville’s most iconic neighborhoods — we can almost guarantee that your sign-up sheet will be filled in a flash! 

Treating your team to one of our top-rated A Little Local Flavor food tours is just the ticket to excite and engage your team.

Having hosted corporate tours for companies big and small (including Amazon, American Express, Cheddar’s restaurants, and Vivial Marketing, to name a few) we’re confident that our tours are just the ticket for your next team outing. Here’s why:

Food Tours are Hassle Free

First and foremost, the whole process is hassle free! From beginning to end, we work with businesses of all sizes to make sure their corporate event with A Little Local Flavor is easy and enjoyable. All we need is a little information from you — What is your desired date? How many people are in your group? Are there any dietary restrictions? — and we take care of the rest. From booking one of our fabulous tour guides, to making sure you get your fill of eats and information, we make sure the only thing you have to do is show up and have a good time. 

Food Tours are Perfect for Experiencing Culture

Plus, have you heard? Exploring a new (or familiar!) city by both foot and by bite is our favorite way to really experience the culture. And Nashville delivers on both accounts. Not only do our walking food tours exclusively showcase small, local restaurants that highlight Nashville’s rich culinary scene, but each of the streets, buildings, people, and places we pass during our 2+ hour adventure together boast impressive history, too. We’ll share plenty of tales about country music and the whole industry that gave this city its name, but our tours also explore accounts of Music City’s other notables: industries, events, and major players who have had a hand in shaping the city we know and love. Best of all, every story is punctuated by delicious food and drink. Who could turn their nose up at that?

Try Delicious Food and Drinks

C’mon - everyone loves eating and drinking! From the West coast to the East, and the South pole to the North, you’d be hard-pressed to find a human who shies away from delicious food and tasty drinks. And whether members of your group are carnivorous or vegetarian, celiac or lactose intolerant, we are able to accommodate almost all dietary restrictions so that every team member can really feel like a part of the team. With our advanced planning and keen attention to detail, we make sure A Little Local Flavor tours are something that everyone can relax and enjoy.

Build Bonds Over Bites

Because, at the end of the day a walking food tour with ALLF is the kind of team building activity that feels a little less corporate, and a lot more fun; it’s an activity in which everyone can participate. While sitting around a table that’s surrounded by friendly faces and filled with food and drink, everyone is given an opportunity to be part of the conversation. Eating together encourages community, builds connections, and creates memories that turn into lasting bonds; this simple activity has the capability to turn strangers into friends, and friends into family.

So ditch the high ropes course; forget the improv glass; and leave your golf clubs in the trunk of your car where they belong. Exploring the great city of Nashville and gathering together for a meal will help to grow your team in a relaxed environment, offering a walking food tour that they won’t soon forget.
