| We had a group of seven ranging in age from 16 to 60's and all of us loved it. Our host was very entertaining and kept us laughing the entire tour. |

| Memphis Jones was extraordinary!!!!!!!! The only problem encountered with the tour was that it ended so soon. I would sign up for a 3 hour tour in a heart beat. Excellent value, good company, and highly recommended. |

| As two British tourists in Memphis we were unsure as to where to begin. We took a look on Tripadvisor and saw that this tour had been recommended highly. And so it should have been. We toured the downtown area of Memphis in a 1950's style bus, with live music accompaniying the historic sites we visited. Amongst them were Elvis' first home, Sun Studios, the site of Martin Luther King Jr's assasination and the shell music arena. In all honesty the tour would have only been ok if it had not been for Memphis Jones, our tour guide. His extensive knowledge of the musical history of Memphis, musical talents and infectious enthusiasm for it all made the 90 minute tour just fantastic. We spent the whole time laughing, singing and shaking our shakers in time to his guitar. I'm only sorry the tour had to end and a further location to enjoy Memphis Jones' humour and music wasn't available.
If you want to have a lot of fun while touring Memphis, this is the way to do it. |

| If you love music and want to get to know the stories behind great songs from Elvis, Johnny Cash or Jerry Lee Lewis - this is the right trip for you. and you can hear (and sing along to) all the great songs because your tour guide is a musician himself who has done a great job telling the stories as well as performing on the bus. By the way, the bus itself is an adventure. It's a classic. Highly recommend doing this tour, it's fun, music and history at once - never boring, but just awesome |

| This tour was awesome, entertaining, and informative! Memphis Joe was our tour guide on the Memphis Mojo Tour and I highly recommend this tour! He plays the guitar and sings, and tells the stories of rock 'n roll legends. My daughter and I loved it! You've got to take this tour. You will not regret it!
We also took the Walking Ghost Tour! Loved it too! Our guide was very entertaining and informative as well. |

| After looking at several tours available in Memphis, the only one we unanimously agreed on was the Mojo Tour. The tour guide was talented, engaging & entertaining & did a fantastic job. We were disappointed that the tours of both Sun Studio & Staax Museum were not available on the Saturday we took the tour. We were looking forward to touring those & our family all felt let down that we couldn't. Other than that, the tour was a good time. |

| We saw a lot of different things in Memphis (there's more to it than just Elvis). The guide and bus driver worked really well together and both were great at what they did. |

| I enjoyed the tour, but it was not as FANTASTIC as I'd expected based on the previous reviews. One possible explanation was that our total numbers were small (only 11 people total on the bus). Maybe that's why Memphis Jones didn't get us going in quite the same way as previous reviewers have described.
But it was informative and fun and I'm glad I went. |
