Nashville to Memphis Elvis Experience Tour

Ride from Nashville to Memphis and back comfortably, VIP style, on 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!

What's included:

• Guide is a Nashville singer-songwriter, Elvis fan, and storyteller with music industry experience.

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 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.
