Great insight into Memphis history and ghosts! - Sheena our tour guide was fantastic! Her story telling was captivating, exciting and very interesting. Sheena made sure to answer all questions and encouraged questions keeping the group engaged and involved. It was a fun tour. We almost cancelled because it was pouring rain. Shenna made sure when she could to keep the group comfortable and sheltered during the tour.

Not being from the Memphis area, it was enjoyable to learn about the people in the history. - Fair price, David was very knowledgeable about the subject, as well as the architecture and basic history of the Memphis area.

Great time! - Sheena was awesome!!!! We loved it!!! It’s done by locals, it’s not a big business thing at all, which is probably the best part!!!! Group was small and it made it even better to hear the stories, histories and sites!!
