The darker side of Memphis.

Shannon did a great job keeping us all engaged on this tour. She was obviously well read on the darker side of Memphis. If you have a couple of extra hours, this tour would be a good way to spend them.

Tour Was Cancelled

We booked this tour a week or more before our trip to Memphis. They cancelled the tour a couple of hours prior to the actual tour because we were the only ones signed up for that day. Unfortunately, it was our last day in Memphis so we never got to do the tour.

A Great Time And A Great Tour!

John was a great tour guide! He was very knowledgeable about the different parts of Memphis and the real events that took place in them. He wad also very vocal when it was time to board the bus! Other people on the tour didn't listen or chose to leave the room. We wound up nearly leaving them once and actually leaving them behind the second time but it wasn't his fault! They didn't pay attention or learn their lesson the first time! He was extremely professional and apologetic when we went back to get them, both to them and those of us on the bus even when he didn't have to. His only mistake was thinking adults would act like adults.
