Such an intimate and honest way to get to see the history of Memphis!! I booked this tour for myself and a few business colleagues, and we sang and laughed and awed the entire time. I learned a TON about Memphis's early rap pioneers especially. As a hip hop fan or music fan in general, you can't leave Memphis without doing this one. Energy was great! And the cookies?! sheesh!!
Fantastic Tour!

The Memphis Rap Tour was fantastic! Taylor Nicole is passionate about Memphis and about rap music, and it shows in her delivery. As a native Memphian, it was so cool to learn new things about the people and places of this city as well as how they inspired some of the most unforgettable beats and lyrics in music history. I highly recommend this tour to visitors and native Memphians alike because you will be educated, empowered, and entertained at the same time. It is definitely two hours well spent!

I learned so much history not only about the hip hop culture of Memphis but also just some overall history of different areas of Memphis that I didn’t know. It was an excellent tour and Taylor Nicole was amazing as well which was our tour guide.

This Memphis Hip Hop Tour was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, it was fun, educational, and full of energy. Our guide was not only super knowledgeable about Memphis' rich hip hop history, but also brought the culture to life with stories, music, and a genuine passion for the scene. We got to visit homegrown spots tied to legendary artists like Young Dolph, 8Ball & MJG, and Yo Gotti, plus some underground gems I’d never even heard of—but now won’t forget. The vibe on the tour bus was fun, with great music playing and even a little dancing! Whether you’re a lifelong fan of Southern rap or just curious about the culture, this tour is a must. You’ll leave with a whole new appreciation for Memphis and its impact on music. I can’t recommend it enough!
