Great Musical Memphis Tour

Tour leader, Gary Hardy , takes you on a musical tour of the Memphis with a great voice and enthusiasm. He knows the history of the industry having been in it for years and his love of the music shines through. I read the reviews on trip adviser before I left on my tour from New Zealand, and booked then and was so glad I did as this really was atour with a real difference and made Memphis come to life,.

Brandon, our tour guide was very informative and kept the tour interesting. If you like being able to participate as a group in sing alongs and have fun doing it, this tour is for you. Oh, and I can't forget about Howard, the bus driver, he is very good at getting that bus where it needed to be. Great Fun, if you are going to Memphis, TAKE THIS TOUR.

Enjoyed the history on the tour

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.

Gary Hart, fantastic

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.

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.

Learned more about the "guide" than Memphis
Wed, Oct 12, 11   3:30 PM DBurris Female 50-59 Combination Other
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.

Let's do it again!!!!

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!
