This tour was disappointing. The air conditioning in the bus was so loud, it made it almost impossible to hear our tour guide. Some of the places that we stopped at were interesting, but after stopping at the fountain in the center of downtown, we were so badly bitten by bugs - mosquitoes? - that we would /could not get out of the bus again to see any of the other stops. The tour should come with information about coming prepared with bug spray - we were so badly bitten by bugs on our feet and legs on this tour that we had to seek medical attention when we got back home. If you sit in the back of the bus and it is warm out, you won't be able to hear due to the A/C, and it is still warm on the bus anyway. You can't bring on food or drinks either, so you can't buy anything on Beale Street before you get on. All in all, not something I would recommend.
We really enjoyed our tour and found it interesting. The thing at the water fountain seemed a bit hokey and for me lost interest there. Only thing I would change is pick up and drop off. Why would anyone want to meet up for a tour in the middle of Beale Street on a Saturday night?
