Incredible, unbelievable, unforgettable - Been dreaming about this trip ever since I was a little girl growing up in Iran. And to finally be here is just surreal. And to stand in the same spot as the King once did, to start it all, just over the top! Also, cannot say enough about our guide Josh H. He truly took care of business. So knowledgeable and passionate about what he was sharing with the group. Thank you Josh H. and the rest of Sun Studio staff for making this experience unforgettable for me!

Exceptional Tour - Darryl, our tour guide, was fabulous. He provided us with all the information for Memphis. He was friendly, funny and just plain nice! I would definitely would recommend including the Sun Studio tour. The tour in Sun Studio was just as awesome. The tour guide was great and provided tons of tidbits about the studio and those that recorded there. My 84 year old mother loved it!

A great tour and insight - Fascinating and interesting insight into the early days of this pioneering studio with such iconic artists and birth of rock n roll. The studio tour is great and to be able to stand where great artists have recording is inspiring. The whole experience was a highlight of our Nashville and Memphis trip. Our tour guide Lydia made it a memorable experience

A Must Do Tour - Sam told great stories, has relationships with VIPs all over Memphis, and was very entertaining as well. Other than the tour going to Graceland, this is the only other tour you need to do! I also want to give props to the girl at Sun Studios. She had great stories and you could tell how fully and emotionally invested she was in the history of this place. Professional, informative, fun, great time had by all!

Highly recommended - a must for all Elvis fans! - It was impressive to be in the same room where Elvis made his first recording. The tour is informative and entertaining - the guide was there with passion. Here I also made new friends. I hope that one day I will be allowed to come back here.
