We visited Graceland last year and decided to come back again this year since there was still so much to see and do. We were told that this tour was a must-do and they were right. Bus was very comfortable watching great documentary on the way over, several stops at photo op locations! Loved the experience and highly recommend.

Great time! Though, wish we had a little more time to spend at Elvis’ birthplace area. There was a section of the park we were not able to explore and walk around. Thank you

This was was an excellent tour. It covered everything we wanted to see. And plenty of time at the different locations.
Unfortunately our tour guide didn’t show much enthusiasm, given the nature of the tour. Hence the 4stars.

Great trip . Smooth travels. Very friendly and informative guide. Lots of time to explore stops.
Would go back again

If you are a true Elvis fan, this is a must to see! The whole experience was fantastic. The tour guide John and the bus driver were great as well.

Elvis’s birthplace and the museums were excellent, and the staff there very friendly and informative.
Our guide was not very personable, I don’t even know her name as she never introduced herself to our group. She was curt and borderline rude in addressing myself and others on the tour. For instance, when the AV equipment failed during the trip to Tupelo from Memphis, and the very enjoyable movie was interrupted and unfortunately never finished, there was no offer of apology, and no explanation of what efforts were made to repair or replace the equipment during our time at the museum. When asked by myself and others if we’d be able to see the rest of the documentary on the ride back, she was very dismissive and seemed annoyed by the requests. She suggested an alternative of listening to Elvis music on the ride - this was from her personal playlist on her phone and could only be heard by the people sitting immediately next to her on the bus. The rest of us sat in silence for the 1&1/2 trip back to the hotel.
The lunch offering was a buffet style build your own burger. The buffet was not set up when we arrived. Once set up, the line moved extremely slowly due to the majority of the guests being elderly and being slow at navigating the buffet which was ticket in a corner up against a wall. This resulted in a very cold hamburger and fries and a lunch that lasted almost as long as our time at the museum. A more user friendly lunch option should be considered and more time should be allotted to see the Elvis related locations that are intended to be the focus and highlights of the trip.
I would highly recommend a trip to Tupelo for a true Elvis fan. I would rent a car and spend more time at his birthplace and museums than this trip allows. I would also enjoy stopping at other points of interest rather than doing a drive by, such as at Johnny’s roadside cafe and Elvis’s school to name a few. I would also enjoy what was described as “the amazing food in Tupelo” rather than a disappointing cold hamburger.

No story, didn't experience trip due to bus driver failed to inform us that bus issue 1 hr later was resolved and left without checking that we boarded.
William_J, Jul 2024
The house Elvis was born in and the whole grounds. Plus our tour guides were the best! There were so many things to see and learn.
Tracy_M, Jul 2024
My husband and I had a wonderful experience with the crew and the bus ride to and from was entertaining as well. My husband is a huge fan and on this trip he actually learned a few new things about Elvis.

The trip was interesting, the guides were helpful and fun. It was thoroughly enjoyable, everything was explained. The lunch provided was excellent
Elizabeth_H, Sep 2023
Viewing where the king was born , the fountain and reflections garden, the overlook were all well worth visiting . Other parts of the tour were very informative. Lunch was just enough . Would suggest an extra hour at the birthplace as we seemed to have run out of time !!
Joanne_H, Sep 2023
It was amazing day enjoyed it all , every moment was good. I would have liked a little Time to explore Tupelo.
Leah_A, Aug 2023
It was great to see where Elvis was born and to learn some interesting facts about his life. To see where he spent his younger days gave you a greater appreciation of his life and where he came from.
Tania_M, Jul 2023
Great day. Only thing I’d change is having a bit more time in downtown Tupelo and a little less at the Birthplace.
High Five to our bus driver who did an awesome job!!!

Just being there. Being able to see his life from childhood to the very last day of his life. Have been an Elvis fan since I was 12.
William_D, Apr 2022
This is a must for any true Elvis fan. Fascinating tour seeing all Elvis’s childhood haunts and the icing on the cake was seeing his childhood house. The guide was very informative and we had Elvis trivia, films and music to entertain us on the long journey to and from Tupelo.
Jeremy_F, Apr 2022
Very enjoyable tour. Comfortable coach service. Expert Guide and driver with Elvis themed tv service on coach. We got to see all of the Tupelo tour spots including a trip to the hardware store where Elvis purchased his very first guitar. The Elvis birthplace theme park is wonderful and included the church where Elvis worshiped and developed his love of Gospel . Highly recommended. Don't leave this tour out.
Lydia_G, Oct 2021
It was a great experience to see the birthplace of the king and town history.I was only ten when he died. Loved his music. The part of this trip was his house, the church and where he played.
Richard_D, Oct 2021
We absolutely loved this tour. Tony was very informative and the bus driver was excellent. We ran into some rain but he handled the situation with ease.
The trip to Tupelo and the time we were there will be a treasured experience. We really enjoyed this tour and would recommend it to anyone who loves Elvis!!
