| This was the best way to see Graceland. The bus ride to the mansion was fun and informative. We did not have to wait in line to pick up tickets, they were brought to us by our tour guide. We had a great time. It was also cheaper to do the tour and see Graceland than it would have been to buy tickets there. We loved the whole experience. |

| Memphis Jones was the best guide ever! This tour is worth the price you pay plus so much more. From the minute we got on the bus, we were treated like movie stars. Memphis entertained us with Elvis history and music all the way to Graceland. Then he got our tickets for us so we didn't have to wait in line.
If it had just been a bus ride to Graceland and tickets handed to us, it would have okay. But Memphis made it really, really special. He has my teenagers singing Elvis and Johnny Cash tunes and I'm reading Last Train to Memphis and tried the sweet potatoe pancakes at the Arcade because of him. He made it wonderful! |

| I booked the trip on line from the UK,,arrived and everything was fine....thought the trip out was fantastic enjoyed the entertainment, very informative and enthusiastic information given....enjoyed the trip ...however only two minor grips....our trip was on a saturday afternoon the place was busy...3hrs is not enough time i felt we were rushed and missed one attraction as we couldnt find it....In the foyer we found on our way out site maps telling us where to go...I fell the operatorsof the tour would do well to issue these as passengers get off the bus....an extra houe would be ideal.... |

| I took the tour to Graceland on August 13th.
Memphis Jones made the tour fun as well as informative.
I wanted to go on one of your other tours as well but time didn't permit it.

| Maybe it was because there were only two groups on the bus and only one spoke English, but it would have been cheaper and only marginally less entertaining to have taken a taxi to Graceland. Memphis Jones did his patter and sang songs on the way there (but not on the way back), which we enjoyed, but he does better with a crowd. |

Gracelands was a let down

| The Gracelands experience was a real let down as we found it solely interested in extracting as many tourist dollars from us as possible and it didn't really honour the king of rock and roll as we felt it should. To be fair, the weather, which was awful on the day and fact that we had to obtain alternative transport back to Memphis as the Backbeat bus was over half an hour late to pick us up did not add to the enjoyment. |

| The bus is unique, comfortable, left on time and a great way to travel to Graceland. The highlight of the entire trip might be getting to spend time with "Memphis Jones" who is as talented as he is fun!
Overall a wonderful experience and one I would recommend to anyone I know travelling to the area. The only small criticism I might have is that the bus was rather late picking us up at the end of the tour and it was quite cold waiting outside at the pick up point. |
