Best interactive tour of Memphis ever. - Michelle was an awesome tour guide. Very knowledgeable, energetic and enthusiastic. She was so much fun to be with. She keeps your attention by involving you in the tour and trivia questions that were very fun. We would love to tour with her again.

Great introduction to Memphis - Excellent overview of Memphis - it's history, politics, music and food. Our guide Daryl was professional, knowledgeable and charming. We met at the Visitors Center which was a great beginning. Drove though the different neighborhoods. Saw all the important sites and the duck walk at the impressive Peabody Hotel. I was glad I added the Mississippi River Cuise.

Michelle was the “BOMB” - This was the best guided tour I’ve ever been on!!!! Michelle was absolutely phenomenal!!!! She managed to show us ALOT of in the slotted amount of time. I would book this again and again just for her ! She invited passengers to ask questions and give feedback. She did not sound like she had anything else better to do than be with us!!! Was not a “rehearsed”speech!!! Just to sum it up. AWESOME!!!

Sam Loves St Jude’s and Memphis so do We - My wife and I did the city tour with our guide Sam!! Sam was one of the best guides we have experienced and we have traveled worldwide. His enthusiasm for St Jude’s Hospital which have supported for over 40 years was gratifying to hear. Likewise he LOVES Memphis and was very enthusiastic about his city. He was a GREAT representative and ambassador for Memphis and of Southern Hospitality. Thank you Sam!

Memphis tour review - There was too much down time. We were left on Beale St. for over an hour and 45 min. to eat lunch. Then we were picked up and carried to the Riverboat tour and and another 45 minute wait for it to start. Our driver was really good and knowledgeable and our tour bus was really clean.
