Backbeat Tours

This was a great tour that provided alot of history in a very fun setting! Our tour guide Jessica was great!

THE TOUR GUIDE WAS VERY ENTHUSIASTIC; BUT, THE TOUR ITSELF WAS A BIT UNDER WHELMING. MAYBE IT WAS BECAUSE IT WAS JUNGLE HOT OUT. MAYBE IT WAS BECAUSE WE HAD CHILDREN ON THE TOUR. OR MAYBE, BEING FROM NYC, THE MURDEROUS RENDITIONS WERE EVERYDAY OCCURENCES.... ALL SAID AND DONE, IT WAS ENJOYABLE AND THE GUIDE WAS VERY NICE. ONLY FOR GHOST TOUR AFFICIONDADOS....

WE THOROUGHLY ENJOYED OUR MOJO TOUR. MEMPHIS JONES IS SO INFORMATIVE, ENTERTAINING AND TALENTED. I WOULD HAVE TO SAY THAT THIS WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF OUR TRIP. IT EMBODIED WHAT MEMPHIS IS ALL ABOUT AND GAVE US AN APPRECIATION OF THE CITY AND IT'S HISTORY.

This is a wonderful tour to learn a wealth of knowledge about the music and history of music as it pertains to the local area. We were originally booked on the Hound Dog tour but it was cancelled and we were put on the Mojo Tour instead. The bus was full, the man giving the tour, Gary, was so knowledgeable and fun, I could have listened to him for hours. It was oh so very hot on the bus, the air conditioner decided to quit working, the day was extremely humid, but yet, I don't feel he missed a beat in his level of enthusiam for the tour. When we stopped at the Stax Museum, there was a chest of ice cold water provided for all of us at no charge, with continual apologies for the bus' air conditioning quitting. One of the other members of the business met us there with the ice water, which was over and above what most places would do, I believe. Refunds or partial refunds were offered. My husband and I told them it was not necessary, it was not their fault the weather was so hot and the air conditioning decided to quit, but yet we have been credited. We were first time visitors to Memphis, deciding to go there for our 20th wedding anniversary after great reviews from a family member, and we are not one bit disappointed with our choice. We had originally planned to go to Las Vegas. I found this tour company went above and beyond to provide a wonderful informative tour despite the hot and humid conditions. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for a very memorable part of our anniversary trip to Memphis. Dorenda & Tom Heather, Marydel, MD. 8/24/10

Our guide, Memphis Jones, was excellent! He was knowledgeable as well as entertaining!

I enjoyed it. It was a great way to be with friends. The guide was informative and entertaining. The only thing I was a little disappointed in was the fact that we didn't actually get to go into these great historic, spooky places.

Lots of fun and interesting facts from Tennessee Tom. Very enjoyable.

I was disappointed that the bus was not the vintage model featured on their web site, but the tour guide more than made up for it with his performance. I left with a feeling of what it was to live during this era.

Our tour guide was both informative and very entertaining. Can't remember her name but our tour was on 13th at 8:30 at Beal Street Two shows for the price of one!

The tour was interesting, but we thought we would be able to go into places such as the theater, but we just walked by it instead. Our tour guide gave a great discription of each place and seemed very knowledgable. Over all it was a good experience.

Guide was enthusiastic and entertaining - a fun history of Memphis.

my husband and i love ghost tours, especially in historic cities, and memphis did not disappoint. our guide was informative, personable and interesting. i would recommend this with no hesitation!

We were extremely happy with this tour. We had teenage children and preteen children with us and all had a great time.

Excellent for history of music in Memphis. Knowledgable and talented guide.

I learned a lot about Memphis' music history that I would never have gotten anywhere else. Memphis Joe was entertaining, opinionated, talented and informed. Highly recommended to those who truly appreciate the music scene.
