History learning Day

Everything was great! Our bus tour guides Taylor and Shawn were friendly and helpful. We learned a lot about the history of Beale Street and civil rights in the area. The Civil Rights Museum tour was very informative and I hope more people take the time to just read, listen, and see the struggles , battles, and challenges that people tougher and braver than we are went through. Lastly the boat ride was just relaxing and fun cruising on the river while listening to some blues, and sipping on some drinks. My wife and I enjoyed it all, along with the mother and daughter family we also hung out with. The only thing that was bad was the food at Central BBQ. Great location and they are making a killing from tourists while serving average at best food. I DO NOT RECOMMEND EATING THERE. None of us were happy about that.

Hit and Miss

Good for the cost; exactly as details given. Civil Rights Museum time is not long enough. BBQ tasting provided was pulled pork on bun with chips served on outdoor patio with ceiling fans, it was hot during our visit so would have preferred to have been seated inside.

Lorraine Motel Museum a Must See

The meeting spot was excellent. Katie and the first driver was excellent. They guided us through the tour with no issues. The Lorraine motel museum was phenomenal. I needed more time. We will be back. The gentleman who narrated on the steamboat was magnificent. The only feedback is to ensure the bus pickup is on-time in the Memphis heat. Thanks!

scam site.

They refused your tickets. When I got there the tickets were only $15 at each place. Total $60 for two not $164.20. You suck!
