GETTING IN THE RHYTHM OF MEMPHIS
Memphis really needs no introduction. It is the famous Home of the Blues and Birthplace of Rock ‘n’ Roll. This vibrant city has been home to such legendary artists as B.B. King, Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash. A city tour is an ideal way to become familiar with Memphis’ historical and cultural roots – and be sure not to miss famous Beale Street, where dozens of bars and clubs feature live music.
When in Memphis, one must also take a tour of Graceland. Once the home of Elvis, the Graceland mansion illuminates his life, career and interests. Explore the mansion with a self-guided audio tour that features stories and commentary from Elvis and his daughter Lisa Marie. Walk through the grand home’s many rooms, including the Polynesian-style jungle room where the family liked to relax. Step outside to see the house where Elvis’ father had his office and managed his famous
son’s career. Then take in Elvis’ many awards in the Trophy Building, followed by a walk through the Racquetball Building where his stage outfits are on exhibit. Wrap up the Graceland Mansion tour in the Meditation Garden where Elvis and his family have been laid to rest, and stroll
along a tree-lined street to check out more than 20 vehicles at the Elvis Presley Automobile Museum, including his famous pink Cadillac.
Visitors to Memphis can learn the complete Memphis music story at the Rock ‘n’ Soul Museum. The museum offers a comprehensive experience, from the rural field hollers and sharecroppers of the 1930s to the city’s musical heyday in the 1970s, and its global influence.
If you’re thinking about taking a trip to Memphis, consider booking a pre-cruise package for a river cruise on the Lower Mississippi, enjoying the
rich history and cultural diversity of the Old
South. American Queen Steamboat Company’s Mississippi Queen plies these waters between Memphis and New Orleans, stopping in the
historic towns of Greenville, Vicksburg and Natchez,
Mississippi; St. Francisville and Nottoway, Louisiana. Along the way, take in the Southern scenes of centuries-old oak trees, sprawling plantations and Civil War memorials. While onboard this famous luxurious paddlewheeler, learn about the area’s colorful history and landscape.
