Memphis music history comes alive on these tours, largely thanks to guides who clearly love what they do. Names like Charlie, Emily, Shannon, and Sheena pop up repeatedly in reviews, each praised for being knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about the city. The Memphis Mojo bus tour draws the most attention, blending storytelling, live music, and stops at iconic spots like Sun Studio into a crowd-pleasing package. Ghost and true crime walking tours are also popular, with guide Sheena earning particular praise for making them both entertaining and informative. A couple of reviewers noted that bus air conditioning ran weak, and one flagged punctuality as a strict policy, so arriving early is a smart move. These are worth keeping in mind, though the overwhelming majority of visitors leave happy and many say it was a trip highlight. The tour is especially well-suited for first-time visitors to Memphis looking for a solid, fun introduction to the city before deciding where to spend the rest of their time.
We had a great experience on the Memphis Discovery Tour. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the city, which made the tour both interesting and enjoyable. He shared not only historical details, but also great stories, caveats, and anecdotes about the people and places we visited. The tour was reasonably priced and well worth it. Everyone involved was professional, and the BBQ stop was especially enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Memphis.
