Lots of fun on this one. Gary Hardy did a great job as entertainer and historian. I had no idea the tour guides were this involved in the music scene, and Gary is a Memphis lifer which makes his insight and historical knowledge even more poignant. |

Garry Hardy provided a very entertaining bus tour. It was very informative, interesting and fun. It was the best tour I have ever been on. It was money well spent. |

Gary gave great insights into the historical streams that created the Memphis sound, from the cotton fields and the Blues to the rock and roll of Elvis and Jerry Lee. |

This is a popular tour and with good reason: you get a lot of information with an enthusiastic tour guide and a good dose of music. Altogether worth it.
About the only thing I'd improve on would be to have more time to take pictures along the way. The bus only really stops for Sun Studios where you get out and go inside Sun. The rest of the tour is "on the go" and you don't get many opportunities to take pictures...well, unless you have a camera that takes motion pictures well. |

This was our second visit and our second tour. Everyone was looking forward to the Mojo bus tour and we were not disappointed. We learned some history and were entertained as well. Our group had an age range from 6 to 66 and we all had fun. Keep up the great work guys! |

We started our trip to Memphis with the Mojo tour. It was a great way to learn about Memphis music history. Loved our host and busdriver! We all sang and had a wonderful time. I highly recommend this tour to a family with children. We had a short stop at Sun studios which was great for the kids. We plan on doing this again with our extended family. |

We loved our tour and musician. It was fun and informative. Our 9 & 10 year old grand-daughters said it was the best tour we did during our week long vacation. The old tour bus made it even more special. |

Thoroughly enjoyed the MOJO tour even though it started out a little wet. (air conditioner condenser dumped water on a couple in our group). Jake Fly was very entertaining and informative and the tour seemed to go by way too fast. |

This tour was so much fun: a lot of singing along and interesting facts. Memphis Jones, the tour guide, is terrific at what he does. The blues, soul and early rock music brings the group together and helps make the whole adventure more memorable. I would definitely recommend it, especially to those who are old enough to know the music and enjoy it. |
