Took the tour on a Saturday afternoon with Eric Hughes (check him out on facebook - Eric Hughes Music or EricHughesBand.com). We loved it! We found his jokes on point, they were perfectly timed and I found him hilarious. He clearly has a passion for Memphis, and has a vast personal knowledge of Memphis music history. The bus was surprisingly comfortable, and it was fun to have shakers to jam along to the music. I actually wished we were able to stay longer, I would have taken the tour again because I enjoyed it so much.

Really great tour.
Jump onto a bus with several others and a storyteller / singer with his guitar. Get handed a tambourine, bongo or shaker.
Lets make music!!
The young singer was so enthusiastic about telling and singing the stories that have made rock and roll history.
Touring Memphis from site to site with a couple of short exit the bus stops all the time singing and tambourining.
We did the extension of Sun Studio. Just stay on the bus, Sun Studio tour then bus back to Beale Street.
The driver was a bit grumpy, but funny grumpy.
