Less than I expected

As visitors of Memphis, we expected the "MOJO Tour: the Best of Memphis" to tell about the town with some music. Basically, it was just a drive around with music but almost no information about what we were seeing. The young musician just offered some comments about music and Elvis Presley. While his music was intertaining, we could hardley hear what he was saying. We learned virtually nothing about the city. Sorry, but we were disappointed. It would be helpful if you made it very clear in advance exactly what is offered during the MOJO Tour. That would help customers from being surprised and disappointed in the presentation. Thanks for your consideration.

We loved this tour, great history of music, along with great entertainment. Enjoyed the sights. I had one moment that just hit me, it was when we saw where Martin Luther King was shot. I have watched that many times in film, but when we passed it caught me off guard and touched my soul. Highly recommend this tour!

This tour was awesome. We had a really diverse group, including my father, in his 70's, and in a wheelchair. This was perfect for him, he could see everything, without all the in and out of the car or wheel chair. Our guide, Nancy Apple (?) was so wonderful and entertaining. I would take more people on this fun tour! Very happy with the tour.

Memphis Jones is amazing! Funny, talented singer/musician, and fantastic storyteller who really pours his heart into his work. The world could use more people like him!

Memphis Jones is a great musician and loved his singing. He made the tour interesting with his insight into the history of the singers and town. The music enhanced the tour and encouraged audience participation with the musical instruments provided.

Interesting tour through the music streets of Memphis. Our knowledgeagle and musical guide pointed out places of historical interest and then sang a song (accompanying himself on guitar) that epitomized that time period. Since I had had just toured the Rock and Soul Museum, it was really fun to see where the originators of soul music and rock and roll cut their records and played their concerts. thank you, mojo tour!

Interesting Information

The tour was very entertaining...maybe a little too much. I would have enjoyed more information on the sites we visited and less singing. The info we did get was really good...lots on Elvis, but also other major people, places and events. I was surprised at how old most of the group was...most were early 60's and older. I'm glad we took the tour...but I have no driving need to do it again.

Very uncomforable

I got stuck on the seat with the wheel hump, and it was very uncomfortable. My legs are still hurting today, from being so cramped. I paid the same as everyone else on that bus, and yet I could not enjoy myself because of my uncomfortable seat and position. you should not sell that seat except maybe to a small child. if I had known that this was going to be my only seat option, I would not have taken the tour. And I arrived plenty early to board the bus. but other people pushed in front of me to get on, and now I know why. very sad
