The City Tour was great. Sam was our guide. He was very knowledgeable and his timing of joke lines were perfect. He gave us suggestions of where to eat that were right on. He spoke clear and understandable. We learned things and enjoyed the tour. The Riverboat portion of the tour I would rate a one star. The man was hard to understand. He talked for 30 minutes telling facts and stories that were interesting. Then for a hour and a half it was boring and he played the music so loud my ears hurt. You had to walk down a slippery gravel path for part of the way with no hand rails. On the way back up it would have been nice to have a bench to rest and catch our breath on.

Learning the history of Memphis. Sam was very knowledgeable about all aspects of the city. We have been partners with St Jude and learned so much about its founder and operations.
