To start off, the day was raining and cold. This caused the windows to fog up. Everytime the bus stopped, you
couldn't see out the window to take a picture. We enjoyed the history during the tour, but the guide we
had was selling himself and his act at the restaurant. Maybe a different tour gruide would have been better. |

We toured as a group of old friends on a cold and rainy day. Our tour guide Gary Hardy kept us warm and happy with wonderfull description of the history of Memphis and its music. Gary's playing and singing of the many familiar and great songs was outstanding. I highly recommend this tour!!! |

I was on the mojo tour 2010. A young student, with guitar was our guide. I really enjoyed that and recommended it to my friends. This year, Gary was our guide. His enthusiasm and stories really made the trip great. I believe my friends would definitely take the mojo tour again. They are still talking about it. |

A fantastic tour. You learn a lot and have a great time doing it. You can even pack a cooler to bring on the bus with you. Our guide was great - lots of history, music, and personality. Of our party of four, two had never been to Memphis. They were totally amazed and entertained. My wife and I had been on the tour previously (maybe five years ago), and we could not wait to do the tour again and we once again had a great time. You have to do take this tour - it is a blast!! |

Enjoyed the tour. Didn't know much about the Blues and there were a lot of names thrown out that we did not know but it was interesting. |

Unfortunately, I was not impressed. There has to be more to see in Memphis than what we drove past. Our guide spoke more about his life and experiences growing up in Memphis - and all the famous people he had met, done business with, performed with, etc. I would not recommend this tour. I've been on many city tours all over the country and this was by far, the worst. |

The Mojo tour was fantastic! This was my third time on the tour and I still learned so much about the history of Memphis and Memphis music. Our tour guide, Gary, was excellent and informative in so many areas. Anytime I have friends or family visit from out of state, I try to get us on a Backbeat tour! |
