As one would expect for a state capital, Nashville has good transport links to the major transport gateways of the USA, so getting there isn't difficult. Flying to Nashville from Europe is relatively easy: most of the major carriers have their own flights or flight partners servicing Nashville. From London or Manchester, UK, it is possible to fly with the likes of Delta, Continental, KLM (NorthWest Airlines), US Airlines, to name but four. Arguably the best Gateway airport is Atlanta, Georgia, although popular alternative routes use Newark, Detroit, Minneapolis-St Paul or Cincinnati. Flight time is around seven-and-a-half to eight hours. |

The other way to arrive in Nashville is on the "Greyhound", America's legendary cross-country bus service. Services aren't frequent, but if you want to see something else of America before or after Nashville, it does allow you to do so without having to drive. However, once in Nashville, driving is the most practical option: Nashville is a sprawling metropolis, rather than the crowded skyscrapers of, say, New York or Chicago. There are a plethora of car hire agencies at the airport, but pre-booking is recommended (see Advice). |

Don't be too reliant upon public transport: in the USA, the car still is king, so buses are few and far between. There is a trolley bus service around some of the more popular districts of Downtown, but it may not run passed your hotel! |
