Things To Do is a Nashville, Tennessee-based experience provider featured on The Adventure Collective. The company curates hands-on, small-group activities and private events centered on historic Belle Air Mansion and locations across Music City. Offerings include seasonal cookie decorating workshops, craft cocktail and mixology classes, holiday cocktail events, guided electric bike tours past landmarks like the Parthenon and Country Music Hall of Fame, horseback riding lessons with post-ride charcuterie, vintage garden picnics with photography, breakfast service in historic dining rooms, dance classes covering two-step, line, and swing with instructors Mike and Sherry, and private sound meditation sessions using crystal singing bowls.
Each experience is led by trained specialists described in the event listings—expert decorators, professional mixologists, skilled wranglers, dance instructors Mike and Sherry, and a certified sound-healing practitioner—and includes curated food and beverage options or equipment as noted. Belle Air Mansion provides a historic estate setting for many of the activities, emphasizing an immersive backdrop rather than a typical commercial venue.

Photos, scheduling, capacity limits, and accessibility details are published per-event on that platform.
