Musical history - This is a piece of musical history and a must do. The guide was excellent and although the studio is small it is crammed with history. Elvis, the Big O, Johnny Cash and of course, Sam Phillips. We saw where Elvis was discovered and can stand where Elvis stood!

Great way to see Memphis! - Our tour guide Darryl was great!! He provided very interesting insight into Memphis and all the sights. We enjoyed the Sun Recording Studio and added the riverboat cruise. Darryl was very thoughtful to make sure we didn't miss getting a lunch to take with us on the boat. We highly recommend this tour!

Great Insights into what makes Memphis what it is - Very informative; after the tour, we had a much better perspective of what drives Memphis and all of the different things that can be enjoyed.
She was a bundle of energy and a little over the top, but in a fun way.
Big highlights were the Duck Walk at the Peabody, time spent on Beale Street, the tour of the Sun Studio, and a narrative of the evolution of St Jude Hospital.
She spent a lot of time detailing many of the important historical events that took place in Memphis, and did it in a fun manner.
Definitely a tour I would recommend if you want a summary of Memphis in 4 hours.

City Tour with Sun Studio - Enjoyed a morning tour of downtown Memphis. Our tour guide, Daryl, did an excellent job of giving us interesting facts about the sites he drove by. The stop at the Peabody Hotel to see the duck march was fun. The highlight was the Sun City tour. The music history of that place is amazing!

When we leave customers at the hotel :((( - The driver who was supposed to pick me up from the hotel left after calling my room, even though I had been waiting for him for 30 minutes in the hotel lobby.
Make more of an effort to find your customers before leaving without them!
