Great Time. - My sister and I took the tour on a very cold evening. It was the perfect way to learn more about Memphis and it's crazy history while staying toasty warm. ( Only one stop requires getting off the bus and that was to get a cocktail. ) The host was knowledgeable and funny! We enjoyed the tour very much. 👍🏻👍🏻
