Great self guided audio tour - Great self guided audio tour. Headsets and receivers are provided after you attend a brief intro video. Walk through with audio guide and spend as much time as you need at each numbered display. Informative and great music available at numerous stations. Took us about an hour to go through nut you could easily stay longer to listen to the many music selections. Well done for a good price too!

Great museum - Great museum, although lady on the ticket counter could've been more friendly. Lots of interesting bits and pieces, so much to look at. Make sure you give yourself at least 1 hour. Would definitely recommend

Absolutely recommendable! - A wonderful museum that tells the story of all Memphis music styles from the roots in rural life in the late 19th/early 20th century to rock'n'roll and soul. The exhibition ist curated with a lot of love for details. The audio guide is one of the best I ever heard, with storytelling, original interview bits by artists and producers and music. At different jukeboxes on the way you can listen to as many full songs from the respective time as you like. I spent two hours here and had a great time.

Memphis rock and soul museum.... Was an excellent trip and a fantastic way to learn about it spiritual home of the blues and Roc - As a lover of blues and rock n roll music, you will love this experience. This excursion was booked by our rep for booking with them.... I'd pay top dollar for this experience as you learn so much about BB King, Elvis, and Martin Luther King. The experience covers the blues and the birth of Rock n Roll with so many artefacts from so many artists. A highlight of our trip to Memphis was this museum. You learn so much from the visit

Great place to learn about music - The museum takes you from the beginning of the blues through modern day in Memphis. It is a self guided tour with headsets and a story to listen to while you walk through history. Definitely a cool place to spend between 60-90 minutes.
