I can't pass by... - I wasn't for event Fan to consider. But this visit is really sublime...everything is perfectly adapted. Few queues during visits to different buildings or exhibition rooms The ticket is expensive but justified. We left enchanted after 4:00 on the site. You can not miss this if you plan to visit Memphis.

Amazing - Graceland has always been on my bucket list. As my maiden name was Presley I always felt a connection to Elvis. The tour was superb the house was just as I expected. The meditation garden was beautiful but brought a tear to my eye he was so young and the. To see the graves of Lisa Marie and her son there so touching. The museum with the cars was fantastic and all his clothes. I loved it and highly recommended

Elvis Presley's Childhood Home Tour - This is a must see tour. My wife and myself had a great time and saw a lot of things that we never seen on previous trips. It's amazing to see where Elvis was born and raised until he was 13 years old. We visited the hardware store where his mother bought his first guitar and many other places. The bus ride was enjoyable and we watched a movie on some of the things about Elvis. The tour guides were great and I will definitely do this tour again! I recommend this to everyone who is an Elvis fan!

Doing so at Christmas was so fun being that it was fully decorated. Went in shortly after Lisa Marie died. Her exhibit wasnt yet created. A remarkable tribute to the King

It was just ok - It was just alright. They crammed too many people in one group. The house is much smaller than what we might think and it sort of feels rushed. But overall it is nice to see once in your life time.

Confrontational and Aggressive Tour Guide - The tour of Elvis’ childhood home was fantastic. Loved the site. Enjoyed the different stops including Tupelo Hardware. The tour gets a 5 star rating however the tour advertised lunch at our own expense and then they brought us to a restaurant with a set burger buffet for $19pp. Burgers and fries were the only option. I asked our guide Larissa if we could go to the connecting restaurant to order something else. She said no, you can’t leave this room. My friend and I have dietary restrictions and this was an 8 hour tour with 4 hours left to go. Since our health wouldn’t allow us to eat burgers, we walked next door to order food. Larissa ran out, confronted my friend who explained about our dietary restrictions. Larissa told her she has to stay in the buffet room only and eat the burger bar or not! Another confrontation ensued again when we went to Tupelo’s Hardware with a heated argument when we looked in the window of a store next door. The worst part about this tour was how we were treated like prisoners, required to purchase a $19 burger bar or starve and watching the tour guide get aggressive with us. Thus the lower rating. Don’t advertise lunch is at our own expense then force us to purchase something we can’t eat. Shoutout to our driver Rex! He was the superstar of the tour!
