| Guitar player was enthusiastic and did a great job. Maybe a little more history would have made it even better. |

Could skip it.

| The tour guide was kind and talented, the bus was retro-cool, and the information provided on the tour was a fascinating overview of Memphis' cultural history. I recommend Memphis Mojo to anyone visiting Memphis. It is a fun and interesting way to get an overview of the downtown/midtown area, and then, if desired, you can decide which sites to return to and explore in more depth on your own time. |

| Have been on this tour before, and it was fantastic! This time the tour guide was great and knowledgeable, but about 2/3 or the way through the tour his sound system went out and we could not hear anything at all -- so the last 1/3 of the tour was quite boring! |

| 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. |

| This tour was the high light of our four day visit to Memphis. We were able to see much of the city, learned much of its history and so much about the history of the Blues and Rock and Roll. The musician, Memphis Jones, was excellent and made the tour the exceptional one that it was. |

| This was a wonderful opportunity to see Memphis--Memphis Jones was our tour guide/musician....very entertaining.... had hoped to have the 1959 bus...but that didn't work out....
We only had a short time in Memphis so this worked out great--especially since we did not have a car to see the sites--and we probably would have missed out... |

| I tried to find out if anyone else had signed up for the tour on the day that the two of us would be in Memphis. I could get no information. It was a Sunday at the end of September. I bought tickets two days in advance. One other couple were on the bus with me and my mom. The guide was wonderful. He was knowledgeable and very entertaining. It would have been better with a bigger crowd, but I still recommend it. |

| 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. |
