Offered in: English

Ride VIP style from Nashville to Memphis in very comfortable Ford Transit Coversion van. This is a private trip for your group! This is a group rate (not per person). I'm a Nashville-based singer-songwriter and lifelong Elvis & Johnny Cash fan. I’ve recorded at Sun Studio, toured the U.S. as a musician, performed during Elvis Week at Graceland for over a decade, and worked with folks who knew Elvis, Johnny, Carl Perkins, and Jerry Lee Lewis. I built this tour to give fellow fans a flexible day built around the King’s legacy. From the gates of Graceland to the Mississippi River to Beale Street, the trip is packed with iconic stops. You’ll purchase your own attraction tickets—I’m happy to help with timing and suggestions. I’ll handle the driving and guiding, and if time allows, we can swing by Stax or the Civil Rights Museum. I might even break out the guitar and sing you a tune!

    Graceland

    I’ll take you right to the front gates of Elvis Presley’s Graceland, and I'll get you set up and started - where you’ll have the chance to enjoy the Ultimate VIP Tour. This is a great way to experience the King’s legendary home! This exclusive option lets you skip the lines, explore the mansion and grounds at your own pace with an iPad tour, and even check out a special VIP exhibit. Just a heads-up: admission is not included in our tour price, so you’ll need to purchase your Ultimate VIP Tour ticket directly from Graceland in advance. We’ll be there to make sure everything goes smoothly and get you back comfortably after your visit.

    Beale Street

    Walk down legendary Beale Street, where live blues pours from small neon-lit clubs, the smell of slow-cooked BBQ and fried catfish fills the air, and performers bring the energy of Memphis to life. From soulful music to cold drinks and local flavor, it’s an unforgettable taste of Tennessee culture in every step.

    Overton Park Shell

    tep into music history at the Overton Park Shell, the iconic Memphis amphitheater where Elvis Presley gave his first live performance in 1954 and Johnny Cash took the stage in his early career. Tucked into a beautiful public park, the Shell still hosts concerts today but remains best known as the launchpad for rock ’n’ roll legends. It’s a must-see stop for fans who want to stand where the story began.
