My group of 9 friends visited Memphis recently and this was my absolute favorite activity. Our Tour Guide Eric Hughes was extremely informative, good natured and an excellent musician and singer. So much musical history was revealed and in a fun way. Do this tour!

If you like history and music, youll love this tour and appreciate the roots of the Memphis music scene. Driver and musician were excellent. I plan on doing this again on my next trip to Memphis.

This was very fun. Our singing/guitar-playing tour guide was very energetic and charismatic, and knew a lot! You learn a lot about Memphis music history and ride by sites related to Elvis and B.B. King and Jerry Lee Lewis among other historical sites, including the Lorraine hotel. Most of the time youre on the bus, though you do stop at the park where Elvis and others took the stage. I definitely recommend upgrading to the Sun Studios tour. That was an amazing tour with a different tour guide considering its basically just two rooms youre seeing but the guide made it a very entertaining and interactive experience.
