Like cities, the world over, the history of Memphis is one best understood by knowing the lay of the land, and the geography which shaped it. As you walk through the city, your guide will explain how the city’s features have defined and shaped the institutions and culture of Memphis.

Visit historic Beale Street - where nightclubs, pawnshops, restaurants, and theatres have been playing the blues for over a century.

Learn about the street’s history dating back to the mid-19th century, where Black commerce thrived in spite of the odds. Hear tales of Ida B Wells, 'Beale Street Blues', B.B. King, and Dr King.

Then, enter into the heart of the American story at the National Center for Civil Rights Museum, where your guide will take you on an hour tour.

Michael did a fabulous job of educating us about the history of Memphis. I learned a ton from him. We learned about the influence of Robert Church on the economy, the influence of W.C. Handy on jazz and blues, the duck walk in the Peabody, and so many other things. Definitely well worth the time and money.
Great museum! Must-see!

We really enjoyed our visit to this museum. I was surprised at the depth of history and information presented. Was especially moved by the Lorraine Motel and the trajectory of the bullet that killed MLK that is shown embedded in the road. Must-see on a trip to Memphis!

Purposely,, Powerful and Importantly Impactful! I went in with a mindset of another museum of history about our world. Well, I left in humility and dignity. I was impressed with the way the History is displayed. There were movies, the artifacts were informative and serves as a reminder to never forget where I came from. Tears of joy as I left.
