Exceptional Tupelo tour - Punctual pick up from The Guesthouse at Graceland by Darnell. He explained the details of the tour and gave us other Elivis information. I was with a party of 4 guests from Australia who were super nice , we got on well. The birthplace is truly worth the visit for any Elvis fan and the little church nearby is a quaint little place where there was a short presentation. There’s a statue of young Elvis and one older which is a little walk up some steps but Darnell offered to take us by car if mobility was an issue , I was in awe of this trip as it really took me to the roots of how the Presley’s lived. Seeing the place marked in the hardware store where Ms Gladys bought the guitar is truly where it all began for $7.90!! Then onto Johnnies diner for food and a photo opportunity of the booth that Elvis sat in !!! This rounded off a fabulous 5 days trip to Memphis including Graceland and is a must do for any fan of Elvis. Darnell is a really friendly guy and looks after you thoughout the tour , fabulous experience for me

Darnell and Reliable Transportation & Tours. Great guy! - We booked with Darnell at Reliable Transportation & Tours for a trip to Tupelo from Memphis in March 2025. I was travelling with my 84 year old mum from England. He was extremely communicative up until the day of travel and made it easy for us. As it happened, there was an extreme weather situation on the day of travel so we had to cancel the trip. Darnell led that process and gave good advice in the interests of safety. He also immediately arranged the refund, no hassle. We replaced the Tupelo trip with a local Memphis tour arranged by Darnell including Sun Studios. I have to say Darnell is a true gentleman, polite with a wonderful personality and great knowledge. His vehicle was luxurious and comfortable, plus my mum really liked him! I would highly recommend him and his company. Thanks mate!

Trip the Elvis hometown - Darnell made this experience, he is fun, had a great sense of humor. It was poor weather but he still got us there and back safe and sound. I would say if you wanted to see the birthplace of Elvis, this is the tour to go on. The only thing that we regret is going on a Sunday, the store he bought his first guitar and the Cafe he spent time in and had his own booth were both closed. Not sure if it was because it was Sunday or because of the weather. Darnell, you were a great guide!!! Lots of energy!
