Kathryn was the best guide we have ever had on a tour. We really enjoyed her voice and her sweet demeanor. Would recommend tour to anyone going to Memphis.

Being new to Memphis, I've been interested in learning what makes this place tick. When some friends came to visit last fall, I discovered the Mojo Music Tour and we loved it. Recently another friend came to town and this tour was first on my list of things to do. I have had two entertainer/tourguides (1st-man; 2nd-woman) and each one approached the tour from a little different angle. I preferred the first one because he pointed out more of the sites we passed, and he actually had known Sam Phillips, Rufus Thomas and other greats. The concept of the tour is delightful, and I will continue to take my out-of-town guests on it because it gives a good overview of Memphis music history in a unique way.

Our tour guide was a lot of fun and gave interesting history of Memphis which we would never known about. I think it would of been a little more fun if it was a little later in the day. Had a great time singing and keeping the beat. Recommendation: Bring lots of friends that are willing to "get with the program" Those on the bus that did had a great time; those who didn't dragged the rest of us down. Go for it!!!!!!

We toured as a group of old friends on a cold and rainy day. Our tour guide Gary Hardy kept us warm and happy with wonderfull description of the history of Memphis and its music. Gary's playing and singing of the many familiar and great songs was outstanding. I highly recommend this tour!!!

Our guide was Memphis Jones. From his knowledge and apparent pleasure in sharing it you can tell he is passionate about the musical history of Memphis. I would take his tour again if I return to Memphis in the future, as there was too much interesting information for me to retain.

We thoroughly enjoyed it. Why didn't the tour take us by the high school Elvis attended?

Husband and I both enjoyed the music, enthusiasm of Memphis Jones, and the historical information he provided. It was a fun, informative, lively way to spend some time in Memphis.

The tour was fun, fun, fun, and informative. My only complaint is that it was too short. Fun for kids and adults alike.
