My Fiancee and myself decieded on a last minute weekend getaway to Memphis and after reading other reviews concerning the Mojo Tour we decieded to try it - I/we are so glad we did! Being a week day the bus was not packed and there was plenty of room. The bus was a 50's era bus but was very comfortable and well air conditioned while maintaining the retro theme. Our tour guide "Nancy" was very informative and passionate about her city and it's culture making the tour peronal and very interesting - one of the best we've ever taken! I would highly recommend this tour (and have already) to anyone - it is money and time well spent!

This was our first visit to Memphis. Thought we'd do something different. This was definitely different.

The tour was a blast! It helped me realize the highlights that I've never seen in trips to Memphis and the musician kept everyone involved and excited. My only complaint was the fact that even though I was told the tour was sold-out, I had to eat the cost of one ticket because one person in our group had been injured and unable to attend. I realize there is a no-refund policy but I think there is an exception to every rule. There were two empty seats, could have sold 2 tickets to a couple at the window and I could have received my money back. Overall, the trip was a fun time and enjoyed by our group of eight people. I would recommend to other visitors to take the tour!

This was the perfect way to tour Memphis! Loved the stories and songs throughout the entire tour. My husband and I felt like we were able to see and feel the personality of Memphis - not just smiply be a tourist in the town. Would sign up for this tour again in a heartbeat!

Memphis Mojo Tour

My husband and myself, and 2 of our close friends went on this bus tour. We happened to be the only 4 on the bus!! Our tour guide was excellent. He included us all in the tour, with my girlfriend playing the tamborine, and I then played bongo drums. Our guide sang a bunch of songs and explained various parts of the city. Being a hugh Elvis fan, I found this fascinating. The ninety minutes went very quickly. I would highly recommend this tour.

My friends and my husband and myself were visiting from South Carolina. We chose the Mojo tour in an attempt to learn what activities we would like to pursue in Memphis. The tour was educational and entertaining. The guide was a talented musician and something of a comedian. We enjoyed his descriptions of the musical history of Memphis and many musicians.

Different, enthusiastic tour! Great experience.

My husband and I have taken a few other tours in other cities that were all interesting and adequate, but never so much fun as this one. The tour guide never lost his audience as his enthusiasum was contagious. He is also a musician and the tour narrative was both verbal and musical and he incliuded the tour participants in the music. Great entertainment and much information about the city of Memphis- music and history both. Sheryl and Jim Picco, California

We were made to feel at ease immediately and it felt very natural to sing and clap along and get into the music. Great leader and bus driver.

We could not have been more pleased with our experience on this tour. Jake, our tour guide, was FANTASTIC!!!!! He sang, played guitar and had wonderful knowledge of this beautiful city and its musical history. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone and everyone. It was a perfect way to spend the afternoon.

we enjoyed the music and the joying in with the songs. found out things we would have not know about the history of Memphis. Also gave us an ideal of more things to go back and see at a later time.
