Elvis Presley's Childhood Home with Lunch & Transportation from Memphis

Overview

While Elvis Presley became the biggest name in music history and achieved worldwide fame and fortune, his roots in the Northeast Mississippi city of Tupelo were humble. Guests will experience the rural setting of Elvis' upbringing and see where it all began in the two-room house where the King of Rock ‘n' Roll was born on January 8, 1935, the church he attended in his youth, and see artifacts from his modest beginnings. Sit back and relax on a luxury motorcoach for this narrated 8-hour excursion departing every Friday from The Guest House at Graceland in Memphis to Tupelo, Mississippi.

We had a awesome look through Elvis's home in Gracelands. If you're an Elvis fan and you can get there, it is an absolute must!! Is like wondering through a time capsule, such a buzz. And all the museum parts across the road which is included is just great. You need the whole day, maybe longer to look through it all properly.

Graceland has been on my bucket list of places to visit so while in Nashville on business I took Grayline Tour by bus which was great courtesy of Frank our driver and guide. After a 3hr bus ride watching Elvis films we arrived. Our VIP passes were waiting. Our tour of the house that is Graceland was based on a time slot so we were ferried across the road from the visitor centre by bus. After a short film our group of 15 was directed by the frienfly staff into the house. Inside it has been recreated to how it was during Elvis's final years in Graceland in the 1970's. It is smaller on the inside but all the rooms and memorabilia are evocative of the King. From the lounge to the TV room to the jungle room all downstairs as there is no entry upstairs. Audio guides are available but I preferred to read the panels around the house. There are a number of outbuildings too and some great photo ops including outside the front which is very busy. I did unlike others slip into an Elvis costume and get some photos. The staff and other visitors applauded my efforts and got photos of a Sikh Elvis outside Graceland! Then back to the visitor centre and the many museums showcasing Elvis' life. From his clothes to his cars to his planes and even his tractor. A chance to try his favourite grilled (not fried) banana and peanut butter sandwich before it was time to go. Overall an amazing experience and 5 hours well spent. This is a must do for any music fan.

Graceland was a place that my husband and I both had on our bucket list. It was great! I have always been an Elvis fan and getting to see where he lived and all of the memorabilia was really something. I would love to go back and be able to take more time. But overall it was an amazing time and I would definitely recommend going!
