    Franklin on Foot

    For the best possible tour of the town, call up Franklin on Foot and take the Classic Franklin Tour. This 90-minute stroll touches on architecture, Civil War tales, and other history. Franklin on Foot is one of the few walking tour places that offers excursions for children. I Spy Downtown Franklin is aimed at kids 5-12, lasts about one hour, and involves a hands-on approach that combines fun and learning. Kids are not recommended for the Ghosts and Gore Tour, which features the best of downtown Franklin's ghost stories and explores some of the crime from Franklin's past - from rape, murder and prostitution to abortion, bootlegging and murder for hire. Tours usually depart from Landmark Booksellers, 114 E. Main St.


    Franklin on Foot offers more than walking tours. We also provide step-one guides for tour buses and local history programs for community, business and civic groups. If you need a tour guide or someone to speak about local history, give us a call at 615-400-3808.
