About this activity

Ride VIP style from Nashville to Memphis in a Ford Transit conversion van with captain chairs. This trip is for your group, and the price is a group rate — not per person.

I’m a Nashville-based singer-songwriter and lifelong Elvis and Johnny Cash fan. I’ve recorded at Sun Studio, toured the U.S. as a musician, performed during Elvis Week at Graceland for over a decade, and worked with folks who knew Elvis and Johnny Cash.

Also, your group can kick back and watch EPIC: Elvis Presley in Concert with surround sound in the vehicle on the way to Graceland. From Graceland to the Mississippi River and Beale Street, the day is packed with Memphis music history.

You’ll purchase your own attraction tickets. I recommend booking Graceland for about 1:00 PM, but feel free to contact me after booking before buying tickets. I’m happy to help with the best ticket options and timing so the day flows smoothly.

I’ll handle the driving and guiding... y'all can just sit back and enjoy Memphis!

What to expect

16 hours6 stopsPrivate tour

  1. Graceland

    3717 Elvis Presley Blvd., Memphis, Tennessee, 38116, United States

    4 hoursAdmission not included

    I’ll take you right to the front gates of Elvis Presley’s Graceland, and I'll get you set up and started - where you’ll have the chance to enjoy the Ultimate VIP Tour. This is a great way to experience the King’s legendary home! This exclusive option lets you skip the lines, explore the mansion and grounds at your own pace with an iPad tour, and even check out a special VIP exhibit. Just a heads-up: admission is not included in our tour price, so you’ll need to purchase your Ultimate VIP Tour ticket directly from Graceland in advance. We’ll be there to make sure everything goes smoothly and get you back comfortably after your visit.

  2. Sun Studio

    706 Union Ave, Memphis, Tennessee, 38103-3218, United States

    1 hourAdmission not included

    Tour the world-famous Sun Studio, where Elvis, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison, BB King, and many other legends recorded. Hear classic audio clips and see the original gear while standing in the same recording room (on the same tile flooring) where rock ’n’ roll was born!

  3. The Peabody Ducks

    149 Union Ave, The Peabody Memphis, Memphis, Tennessee, 38103-2638, United States

    30 minutes

    Watch the famous Peabody Ducks march through the grand lobby of Memphis’s historic Peabody Hotel—a beloved local tradition with music, red carpet, and plenty of southern charm.

  4. Beale Street

    Memphis, Tennessee, 38103, United States

    1 hour

    Walk down legendary Beale Street, where live blues pours from small neon-lit clubs, the smell of slow-cooked BBQ and fried catfish fills the air, and performers bring the energy of Memphis to life. From soulful music to cold drinks and local flavor, it’s an unforgettable taste of Tennessee culture in every step.

  5. Overton Park Shell

    1928 Poplar Ave, Memphis, Tennessee, 38104, United States

    20 minutes

    tep into music history at the Overton Park Shell, the iconic Memphis amphitheater where Elvis Presley gave his first live performance in 1954 and Johnny Cash took the stage in his early career. Tucked into a beautiful public park, the Shell still hosts concerts today but remains best known as the launchpad for rock ’n’ roll legends. It’s a must-see stop for fans who want to stand where the story began.

  6. Casey Jones Village

    56 Casey Jones Ln, Jackson, Tennessee, 38305-2481, United States

    20 minutes

    Enjoy a sweet Southern break at Casey Jones Village in Jackson, TN—where you can shop for local gifts, grab hand-dipped ice cream, and soak up small-town Tennessee charm on our drive back from Memphis.
