This is a 2.5 hour journey through Memphis with a beautiful soul appropriately called Queen. I travel plenty. I am an adventure. This IS an adventure. I can't imagine going to Memphis without taking this tour. My family loved it, teenager included! I'm off to my next adventure, so I gotta go, but this is a 5 star experience you need. "Queen is the best", "Very captivating tour"--reviews from the teen...

Absolutely amazing experience. Our tour guide Queen was so knowledgeable about the history of Memphis. We learned so many new things. She was entertaining and engaging and you can tell she loves what she does. Definitely recommend her services.

This was a REMARKABLE experience. I would recommend this to any individual or family. Jackie is SUPER knowledgable and entertaining. I thought I knew a lot about Memphis and it's history. You will complete this tour realizing that you were only scratching the surface. The history goes deeper than you know.
