Outstanding HoundDog Tour

I would highly recommend the HoundDog Tour. They were very accomodating and Memphis Jones the musician on board the bus was very knowledgeable about Elvis and made the trip exciting and fun. The music he performed in between telling us all about unknown facts about Elvis was extremely well done.

I booked the tour as a surprise for my mum who has waited 50 years to visit Graceland and all things Elvis. When we booked the tour we mentioned it was my mum's birthday and Memphis Jones led the rest of the bus in singing Happy Birthday to her. Mum really loved the tour, visiting places where Elvis would have walked and listening to Memphis Jones explain where we were and what had happended there. Mum and I both joined in with the singing and playing the instruments and the tour had a great feel good factor to it. If you like Elvis, singing and having a laugh this tour is for you!

The tour guide was funny as well as a good musician. Tour pointed out good Elvis landmarks. It would be a good idea to have an afternoon tour too for those of us who aren't morning people:-) Definitely would recommend this to others!

Touring from England, UK We booked the trip as we would be riding on a 50's bus. The day of our trip, a bus had broken down, so we were on a small bus. A 50's bus was being used on another trip, which was following ours! My husband enjoyed the trip, even though he was disappointed about the bus. I was bored.

More than just a tour!

I have been on several city tours in the past and have found them bland. What makes this one different is that it is interactive. You get to sing along, play instruments, or just listen if you prefer. Because Memphis is the "Home of the Blues and Birthplace of Rock n Roll," it is fitting that live music is played during the tours. The music enhances the narrative provided on the tour and gives you something to do between sights instead of just looking out the window for several hours while the driver points out sights.

Thanks, Memphis Jones - and sorry for the measly tip. I kept getting my currency in a twist! I'll be writing some freelance articles about our trip, so I'll try to make up for it by giving you a plug in the British press. Just let me know if there's anything you'd especially like us to know!

The most fun filled tour of my life!

I took the Hound Dog tour and the entertainment on the bus was phenomenal. I rode on the Miss Clawdy bus and Memphis Jones was an excellent tour guide. I recommend this tour especially to all Elvis fans who will appreciate it more. I learned so much more about Elvis' life that I'll remain a fan for life. I highly recommend Back Beat tours. I am planning to return to Memphis and take the other tours such as the Mojo tour from Back Beat.

TOUR DIRECTOR MEMPHIS JONES WAS A HIT!!!!!

My girlfriend (an avid Elvis fan) and I took the tour to see a little bit of Memphis and of course anything about Elvis. We thought the tour was a bit pricey for just riding around on a bus. (We toured Sun Studios separately) HOWEVER , your tour director Memphis Jones really made this a memorable tour. He is a very knowledgable Elvis fan and a great entertainer! Without him, this tour would have been a downer. Memphis, keep doing what you do best !!! Many hugs and kisses to you! Debbie and Mechelle
