5.00Our Tupelo day trip from the Guesthouse at Graceland was fabulous. Our tour guide was great and very knowledgeable and we had a nice lunch stop at Bulldog Burger. We really enjoyed everything there was to see at Elvis’ Birthplace including the museum, church service, statues and reflecting pond. They had a great gift shop as well. We also made stops at the Tupelo Hardware Company where Gladys bought Elvis’ first guitar, the Tupelo fairgrounds to see his statue and the visitor center. Highly recommend!
Lovely

5.00Good experience at Graceland. Such friendly employees. Everyone is so hospitable. Elvis would be so happy that everyone loves his house as much as he did. The pictures were a bit high. $40

5.00We did the Ultimate VIP tour with John as our guide. He was absolutely amazing and there wasn't one question he couldn't answer. You can tell he is a true Ekvis fan. Highly recommend the tour but come early or plan to stay after so you can see everything

5.00Very emotional to walk through the front door, seeing the young Elvis photo on the wall at the bottom of the stairs. Very surreal, to be in Elvis’s house, very humble man he was, very good tour, definitely recommend it whilst in Memphis. Beautiful house and gardens.

5.00Without words, it was my dream to visit this place. I’ve been a fan of Elvis since childhood and it was very exciting to be closer to his history.
Avoid.

1.00We arrived mid afternoon and the employees were gathered in the lobby complaining about a tour group that had been there. When they finally finished their session a girl turned to us and told us how much the tickets were. We purchased them and she told us to start out side in his boyhood house. We thought is was odd that everything else was locked up. We decided to go inside to the museum, but the same girl stopped us and said it was closed. It was not even 4PM! She did offer to let us go in the gift shop, but we declined and left. I would advise, spend your time and money somewhere else.
Fantastic experience with a nice good guide. Recommended for Elvis fans!

5.00Our tour guide John was absolutely amazing!! I don’t really write reviews but boy oh boy, this gentleman really deserves one! Not only was he VERY knowledgeable, he was super funny, extremely kind and you can genuinely tell he enjoys his job! We had the best time and I would 1000% do it again 😊 also, our tour bus driver Rex was so sweet, like John he made the day extra special. As an Elvis fan, this trip is a MUST if you are visiting Graceland! We hope we can return again soon and do it all again! Thank you so much John and Rex, we appreciate you making it such a special experience! TCB always ⚡️♥️
