Graceland and Beale - Bus ride was great! The driver was really good. We enjoyed watching the movies on Elvis. It really paved the way for a great tour of Graceland. Everything in the Graceland exhibit was amazing! We loved sun record Studios, but were not super impressed with Beale Street. Rendezvous was recommended for the best barbecue. But you had to walk down an alley that smelled like sewer. The service was slow and the barbecue was mediocre. We do not recommend going to this place. Everything else was great!

One time experience - The tour bus was small and very cramped for that long of a haul but it could have been worse. The employees at Graceland were rude and seemed to have an attitude. The bus driver was great. Very knowledge. The tour of Sun Records was my favorite part of this trip. Be sure to eat in Memphis as Charlie’s Rendezvous BBQ.

Highly Recommend! This trip was amazing! - This trip exceeded all my expectations! The driver was great, he had helpful suggestions for dinner spots in Memphis and played entertaining Elvis videos on the ride there and back. The entire trip was well organized, both Graceland and Sun Studio were fantastic! Don’t rent a car - take this bus trip and skip the lines and hassle. Highly highly recommended!

Well worth a trip! - Excellent day trip, would definitely recommend. Frank the driver was lovely and very knowledgable. Trip was very well organised. Plenty time to see all of the exhibits and could go at your own pace around the Graceland mansion.

Not really worth the money - It's pretty much a tourist trap. Very overpriced without that much historical content. Bummed out that we didn't get to go upstairs in the mansion.
