Overview

This is a full-day guided sightseeing daytrip from Nashville to Memphis aboard an air-conditioned coach bus. The trip begins with a four-hour drive from Nashville to Memphis, located on the Mississippi River. Upon arrival, the tour visits Elvis Presley’s Graceland estate with VIP access. This includes skip-the-line entry to the Graceland Mansion, an audio-guided mansion tour with an orientation film, and access to the exclusive VIP exhibit. Visitors can also see Elvis’s burial site, the car museum, two of his tour airplanes, and the Memphis Entertainment Complex automobile exhibit. There is time for lunch on your own at Graceland before reboarding the coach. After Graceland, the group travels to Sun Studio in downtown Memphis for a one-hour guided tour. This tour explains the recording process and shares stories about early rock ‘n’ roll legends such as Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Elvis Presley, who began their careers there. Following the studio visit, there is free time to watch the Peabody ducks march from the fountain to their elevator at the Peabody Hotel, a long-standing Memphis tradition. Then, guests have about an hour to explore Beale Street on their own, a district known for blues music and barbecue. Alternatively, visitors may choose to visit the Memphis Rock ‘n’ Soul Museum at their own expense. The tour concludes with the return coach ride to Nashville and hotel drop-off after dark. The tour includes round-trip transportation, a professional driver/guide, Graceland VIP admission and exhibits, access to Elvis Presley’s airplanes, and the Sun Studio guided tour. Lunch and any museum admissions outside the included features are not included. Wheelchair-accessible coaches are available upon request with advance notice.
