BackBeat Graceland Tour, Only Way To See Graceland

| This Tour is a great way to see Graceland. I didn't catch our guide's name, I wish I had, he wasn't the infamous Memphis Jones, but he was an excellent tour guide in his own right. He was very knowledgible of Memphis music history and pointed out points of interest from Beale St. to Graceland that we would have not even noticed had we not taken the tour. He was also a great musician and got the whole bus involved. Highly reccomend this and the Mojo Tour. | ||||||

| Everyone who greeted us or served us on the bus tour to Graceland was extremely pleasant. The entertainer really had fun and we had fun! They even sang 'happy birthday' to my mother! Would recommend to anyone doing a tour package. The singing adds a little something. | ||||||

Inadequate conent

| Great idea and wonderful guide; only very VERY thin material. That's the only suggestion - make the stories more varied, with more details, more history and such. Do some research!!!! While it is understandable that given the nature of the topic, nothing "cite-specific" can be added - but spice it up with stories of other kinds, from different places, books, shows... All and all, not really worth the money or time... | ||||||

| Memphis Jones did an excellent job as our tour guide around Memphis. He was a great singer and entertainer. He made the tour a lot of fun. I would definately recommend taking a tour if you're going to be in the Memphis area. I plan on taking another one of the tours the next time we are in town. | ||||||

Ghost Stories always good for the Halloween season

| This was a good tour. the Guide was energetic and knew a great deal about the history of the haunted locations. It would have been nice to have gone inside some of these locations but I understand that this is out of their control. I was suprised to find out that many of the businesses did not want to be asociated with a ghost tour or have any of their guests or customers have any knowledge that anything supernatural may occur to them. | ||||||

| The tour guide was very friendly, giving a lot of Memphis history, while he was playing and singing a lot of rock & roll, jazz etc. music. We enjoyed the trip very much. The hour and a half went by very fast and we all had a great time singing along etc. If you like music and also want to get some history of Memphis on the way, I would highly recommend taking the tour. | ||||||

| My husband and I had a great time on the Memphis Mojo Tour: the Best of Memphis. Our tour guide "Memphis Jones" was very knowledgeable and a fun interactive entertainer. I am so glad we did this tour instead of the usual type of bus tour. I highly recommend this tour to all ages. FUN FUN FUN! | ||||||

| I have been on a few "Haunted Tours" in different cities around the south. At this point in time, I expect a little more. Don't get me wrong, we liked our guide and our tour, but wish it had been a little more "special". For one thing, it wasn't a latern lit tour. Your guide really needs some way to have the group keep up with them in the walking parts - some sort of flag or light of some sort would help. I was expecting a little more in the way of involved stories. I think our guide was a little too afraid of ghosts to really get into it. She was nice, but made it feel a little cheesey. The tour also need some cohesiveness...not really a storyline or plot, but something that would hold it all together. We had fun though!! | ||||||

| My daughter (13) and I took the Backbeat Tour on our first trip to Memphis and it was great! It was very informative and we had a fun time. Jake was our gude and he gave us a lot of "on the side" information as well entertained us with wonderful music. I didn't think my daughter liked it too much, but after all we did in Memphis, she said the tour was her favorite. We'd certainly do it again. | ||||||

Mojo Tour - Memphis Jones - Amazing
|
|||||
| Sat, Oct 11, 08 10:00 AM | Telstar | Female | Unspecified | International Tourist(s) | Individual | |
| Dear Backbeat Where do I start, well I fly out to Memphis last Friday for the weekend and had booked your Mojo tour over the Internet for the Saturday morning as I thought what a great way to see part of Memphis, learn about the history, see the sights, visit sun studio and have a musician singing and telling you about historical facts. Wow, MEMPHIS JONES was and is amazing. He Interacted with people so well, he had so much to tell and I loved it when he would start to tell us something and think of something else and then say we’re go back to that, it’s like there was just so much he wanted us all to know, he is such a great singer and so entertaining, funny and lively. I just wished the tour had been much longer I’d have spent all day on the bus adsorbing Memphis Jones’s talent and knowledge this is one of my most enjoyable memories from my visit, one I will never forget and would so do this tour all over again. I was telling everyone I spoke to in Memphis to take the tour with you and to make sure Memphis Jones was the musician, telling them how much they would love it. Thank you so much, an even bigger thank you to Memphis Jones and what ever you are paying him, it’s not enough. Regards, Teresa (From England) | ||||||

| I decided that this tour would be great for me - a HUGE music fan - and my teenage niece. We both had a great time, at the back of the bus, what became known as the "Party Box in the Back"! Memphis Jones was truly a joy to ride along with. He knew his Memphis city history as well as his Memphis music history. That, and he is really talented. We enjoyed every minute, and would definately recommend this tour to anyone looking to have a good time while seeing some historical sights of Memphis! | ||||||

| Great way to get a little Memphis flavor. Memphis Jones was very entertaining. He had a lot of tales of how R&B took hold in town and delivered that story with much enthusiasm. Do not miss this tour, most fun in Memphis. | ||||||
