He is a wonderful tourguide, full of real knowledge, with his own connection to the area and was very personable and candid with his own stories and we stopped, got out of the jeep on a few occasions, so I could take pictures and get a lay of the land. He is a great communicator, and I knew he had recently published a book called, Wrestling with Wisdom at The Crossroads. I bought it, amd have been reading it. This is a once in a lifetime type of tour and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in this part of the Delta, the landscape, the people, music and creativity spawned from this part of the deep south.

The beautiful wife and I did a carriage ride and had a great time -- our driver was very nice and gave us the option of "do you want to know what you're seeing? Or do you just want to relax and enjoy?" Love how all the carriages have an accompanying dog. And I could only think of my Disney princess loving nieces when seeing the "Cinderella" carriages. Sure, it's a touristy thing to do, but some times you need a break from beer and ribs. Tip: these aren't smooth rides. If you're bringing a beer on board, keep it far enough away so it doesn't slosh on you.

The building sits right by the Mississippi River, like it knows it's got the best view in town. We stepped out of the car and were immediately greeted by none other than Elvis Presley himself--or at least a very confident bronze version of him. Nearby? B.B. King, mid-strum. I hadn't even picked up a brochure yet and was already planning a full-on Memphis playlist. Inside, the place was spotless. Cool air, clean restrooms, and a staff so friendly they made us feel like we were long-lost cousins just coming back to visit. One of the ladies behind the desk insisted on handing us "everything we might need"--maps, coupons, and a cheerful rundown of what not to miss in the city. She even offered to take our picture with Elvis. I didn't say no. Out back, the view of the river was unreal. Bridges stretched across the water, sun glinting off every ripple. People were sitting on benches, sipping drinks from vending machines and watching the barges roll by like slow-moving giants. We were only supposed to stop for five minutes. We stayed for almost forty. Five stars, no question. The Tennessee Welcome Center doesn't just welcome you--it invites you to fall in love with Memphis before you even get to the first stoplight.

We visited Dyer's Burgers, Blues City Cafe, Kings Palace Cafe, Rum Boogie Cafe and A. Schwabs. The tour provided more than ample delicious samples of deep-fried cheeseburgers, milk shakes, ribs, jumbo chicken wings, gumbo and gelato. Taylor also gave us recommendations and suggestions on several additional Beale Street restaurants we did not visit on the Food Tour. To say the least, our stomachs were more than full when the tour ended. I recommend this tour to anyone who visits Menphis. You will not be disappointed.

We ate ribs, gumbo, BBQ nachos, red beans and rice and I'm not sure what else. Last but not least we stopped by Dyers for a burger. It's not BBQ but it's definitely part of Memphis and was so good! We were lucky to be the only two on this tour. Touring Memphis with Harper was like walking around with an old friend. It felt like we were the three amigos instead of a tour group. Harper shared a lot of Memphis' history during the tour which was super interesting. He is definitely proud of Memphis and it shows. We are beyond happy with our experience and absolutely recommend Tastin' Round Town food tours.

First things first, the meet up spot was not well described he mentioned landmarks such as meeting at a firehouse that neither me and my companion nor the other members of our tour could find. It started at the museum where MLK was assassinated. And it had nothing to do with ghosts or paranormal activity. We then moved on to other locations throughout downtown Memphis that were also underwhelming. The stories that he told often ended with nothing to do with paranormal activity or ghost sitings. In my opinion it was colorful historical facts about the city which were cool to hear but after almost two hours it got old when I realized it was more often than not, would not end in connecting to ghosts. I would do another ghost tour in Memphis, but not with this company.

My tour guide, Bayleigh, hosted a captivating evening of spooky yet -True- stories told in places where the history is still vibrant. As we visited the Bluff City Ghosts sites, I had a few other questions about Memphis and its history, and Bayleigh answered so many questions for me that Memphis now feels familiar to me--as well as intriguing!

Our tour guide was Morgan, and she was great. She had lots of information about Memphis, and was just a good story teller. This tour was about an hour, as opposed to the longer ghost tour, and while I would have liked it to go longer, I felt that we got a good amount of information in our time. I don't think we went to all the exact places listed on the web site, but we heard some spooky stories, and had lots of fun. There was one kid on the tour, I'd think some of it might be a little scary for kids, but I guess it's up to what your kid can handle. I totally think this tour was worth the money, and would suggest it to anyone looking for a quick ghost-type tour. I'll also definitely sign up for Backbeat Tours' regular ghost tour next time I'm in town if my schedule allows.

They have a walking tour, bus tour, a tour and haunting at one old house, a pub crawl which visits a few very old establishments. We luckily get in for their bus tour. It was perfect because there's scattered showers predicted and this is the best way to go around town without getting soaked. Our guide is very knowledgeable, and really played the part. She was even wearing a Victorian costume. If you are a history nerd and would like to hear some of those through this tours, this is definitely the best tours you'll find.

Easy and convenient meeting location at The Broom Closet (seriously check out the merch here- they've got some great finds!)

The 'Queen' was our guide and she totally made this Memphis trip a memorable one.

Queen doesn't just spit knowledge-- she keeps everyone engaged throughout the tour. She also is a master at linking the past with the present, with an added emphasis on prompting action to shape future history. You have my word--take this tour at first opportunity and you won't be disappointed. It'll also be valuable for learning good food and tourist spots for after the tour. Hint: smoked turkey ribs...
