5.00We loved this tour. Sam, our guide, was very friendly, fun and knowledgeable about about Memphis. I could hear in his voice how much he loves the area, and for me that made the tour even more fun. Thank you to Sam for giving me a new point of view for a place I had never been to. We learned about some of the history of downtown Memphis, and some of the musicians that recorded at Sun Studio. We saw the ducks at the Peabody Hotel, nice gig for the ducks! We also got some great tips for the local restaurants. I would recommend this to tour of things to do in Memphis. The meeting place was easy to find and convenient.

5.00Wow, what a lovely way to spend several hours on a cold yet sunny day in Memphis. I certainly felt like I got my money's worth. I was picked up on time. Driver Daryl was considerate and knowledgeable and kept his audience engaged by asking questions. This tour had a "crowd size" of one five, so individual questions were appreciated and answered. The tour was a composite of seeing sites by bus and by being given (enough) time to walk around. I feel richer for today's experience.
Top five experience of a guided tour in the music industry.

5.00Hi We had a wonderful experience doing the guided tour through your facility. We were there on January 8 in the afternoon and took the 130 tour with Mr. Winchester. We found him to be a versatile tour guide as we had a very mixed crowd of age, and also some folks whose English was not their first language. We were super impressed with his knowledge of the industry in general, the local history of the music scene in Memphis, as well as his love for his job. I highly recommend this guided tour to anyone interested in how American music evolved in the 50s in the 60s
