O cantor Ma Rainey II está enterrado lá. Seu pai, um pastor, proibiu-lhe de cantar, então Ma Rainey fugiu e se juntou a um circo itinerante. Ela trabalhou como contabilista da fortuna do programa e como artista de ragtime na Beale Street. Nota: O tour é de mais de 11,2 milhas de comprimento, com mais de 25 + histórias de áudio, e leva cerca de 2 - 3 horas para completar. Novo, acesso perpétuo, sem expiração.

Franklin eventualmente se mudou para Detroit com seu pai depois que seus pais se separaram. Ela começou a cantar na igreja de seu pai. Todos reconheciam seus imensos talentos. Seu pai até a levou com sua "caravana gospel", onde eles se apresentaram em igrejas por toda a área.
Se continuássemos dirigindo em linha reta, chegaríamos à Beale Street. Esse é o coração pulsante do centro da cidade. Se quiser dar uma olhada, você pode encontrar estacionamento e caminhar pela área exclusiva para pedestres bem em frente. Tenho algumas histórias bônus divertidas lá se você decidir ir.
Bem-vindo a Memphis! Casa dos Blues e local de nascimento do Rock 'n' Roll, esta cidade musical não tem escassez de pontos de vista e sons para peregrinos amantes do ritmo.
Chegando à nossa direita no final desta estrada estará o Stax Museum of American Soul Music. E cara, ele tem soul — Otis Redding, os Staple Singers e até o Reverendo Jesse Jackson gravaram aqui. Se você quiser conferir, vire no estacionamento que vem à nossa direita. Você pode tocar em Saiba mais para saber mais sobre soul music depois de estacionar.
Em alguns minutos, passaremos por um prédio de tijolos com uma guitarra enorme pendurada na frente. Esse é o Sun Studio, também conhecido como “o berço do rock ’n’ roll”.
Este histórico estúdio de gravação começou como um cinema que exibia filmes mudos em 1915. Foi convertido no Royal Recording Studio em 1957 e se tornou o estúdio de gravação oficial da Hi Records.
Em 56, Elvis e sua família viviam em uma rua relativamente tranquila — até que seus fãs a descobriram. Logo, eles estavam acampados do lado de fora de sua casa, desesperados para dar uma olhada em seu astro do rock favorito. Embora os vizinhos de Elvis não tivessem nenhuma rixa pessoal com ele, eles tinham um problema com hordas de fãs gritando estacionadas em sua rua.

Great driving tour. Can't beat the price
Thanks, Russell - glad you had a great time! If you’re exploring more in the area, consider my other tours, like Natchez Trace, Shiloh, or Great Smoky Mountains. Happy exploring!
A reasonable couple of hours spent driving through areas of Memphis that you wouldn’t normally. Definitely check out Aretha Franklin‘s house.
Gino, what can I do to earn five stars next time? I’m glad my Memphis tour gave you the chance to explore areas you might not have visited otherwise, like Aretha Franklin’s house. If you’re exploring more in the area, consider my other tours, like Natchez Trace, Shiloh, or Great Smoky Mountains. Happy exploring!
User friendly, Good pace.. easy to restart when wed stop and fun alternative stops to do later in the day...
Cynthia, thank you for taking my Memphis self-guided driving audio tour! I’m so glad it felt user-friendly, moved at a good pace, and was easy to restart whenever you stopped along the way. My audio tours are valid forever and work offline once downloaded beforehand, so you can revisit those extra stops anytime with the same flexibility and convenience. Happy exploring!
Showed up at Bass Pros and didn't get any more instructions to do any more of the trip , even though I tried calling but it was after six o'clock. Would not recommend? But definitely go to Bass Pros , it's worth the visit
Jay, the Pyramid located at #1 Bass Pro Drive is the starting point for my tour, and I have no affiliation with the Bass Pro Shop retailer. Did you launch the app after reaching the starting point? This is a self-guided tour, and no in-person guide is available at the starting point. I have already refunded you, but please let me know. I’m available daily from 9 AM–6 PM EST.
Unfortunately, I didn't get to use the audio guide. We either used Uber or Google maps with our iphones.
Hedy, I’m sorry to hear you didn’t get a chance to use my Memphis GPS Driving Audio Tour during your trip. Was there any specific issue that prevented you from using the tour? I’d love to understand more so I can help further if needed. Please feel free to reach out anytime — I’m available daily from 9 AM–6 PM EST and happy to help.
This is a great tour to do on your own to get a bit of history of Memphis. We took the side tours too and loved seeing the birthplace of Aretha Franklin. Highly recommend going during the day as some of the tour traverses through older areas that are not as modern as others. Well worth the money. The only downside was the amount of construction in the area made it hard to stay connected to the audio as we had to take a few detours. We were able to quickly resume the tour when we were back on the route however!
I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed my Memphis GPS Driving Audio Tour and the side tours as well. It’s wonderful to know you loved seeing places like Aretha Franklin’s birthplace and learning more about Memphis history along the way. I also appreciate your note about the construction and detours affecting the route at times. Construction can definitely make navigation a little trickier, but I’m happy to hear you were able to quickly resume the tour once back on track. If you're exploring more of Tennessee, check out my tours of the Natchez Trace, Shiloh, Clingmans Dome, and the Great Smoky Mountains. Safe travels!
Very insightful and helping with letting us get more familiar with the area on a rainy day. Great day
Sierra, I’m so glad to hear you were very pleased with my Memphis GPS Driving Audio Tour. It’s wonderful to know the tour helped you get more familiar with the area and made for a great rainy-day experience. If you're exploring more of Tennessee, check out my tours of the Natchez Trace, Shiloh, Clingmans Dome, and the Great Smoky Mountains. Safe travels!
This tour was an experience. It would have been better for us if it had not been raining so much, plus not knowing the area and road construction 🙄 it just made it difficult. It would better if you didn't have to hop on and off the highway and stayed on the local roads.
I’m glad you gave my Memphis Self-Guided Driving Audio Tour a try, and I appreciate you sharing your feedback. Rainy weather, unfamiliar roads, and construction can definitely make navigating more challenging, especially in a busy area like Memphis. Following the route is important for the full tour experience, and I appreciate your note about the highway portions; feedback like this helps improve the experience for future travelers. If you're exploring more of Tennessee, check out my tours of the Natchez Trace, Shiloh, Clingmans Dome, and the Great Smoky Mountains. Safe travels!
It says 25 audio stops but those include the directions for turning it does not share historic details of buildings we are passing. Very opinionated about Elvis but some of which may not be soundly researched
Chantelle, I take comments like “not soundly researched” very seriously. Can you be specific — what points do you mean? When it comes to driving through downtown past landmarks — I’m happy to take your request to add more about the Peabody into account. If there are specific other attractions you wanted to know about, please let me know. I typically don’t spend a lot of time pointing out museums or arenas but I’m always happy to adapt.
I did like the information provided, and the narration was easy to understand and pleasant to listen to. However, the instructions were light and there is a bit of self learning, by failure, on how to use the app correctly. Once I missed a turn to get on the interstate because the instructions were unclear, and as a solo driver I couldnt look at my phone. Once I got turned around, the way back on the interstate from the opposite direction of travel misses the next location circle on the map becase it was on the on ramp itself. I would have had to go past my new on ramp, and turn around again in order to hit the location circle on the orginal on ramp to continue the narration and voiced directions. So the entire trip on the interstate was quiet and I dont know what I missed and if it was anything interesting. Aside from that, I do suggest taking the "optional" side trip. Im not sure why they labeled it optional, but I assumed it was time consuming so I skipped it. Unfortunately that made the entire thing very short. Missing that section and my later mishap where I missed several minutes of narration left me feeling like I paid a decent amount for very little information. Maybe had I done the whole thing and not missed my turn I would have been satisfied. Unfortunately, I waited until I was leaving town to do the tour, as it seemed the most efficient way to do things, and I didnt have time to start over. Dont skip this on my account, but heed my warnings to stay the course, hit the markers even if it means back tracking (think like you are playing a video game and you need the loot), and take the optional path as well to make the tour fullfilling.
Matthew, thank you for sharing such detailed feedback. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the information and found the narration clear and pleasant, but I’m sorry the directions and app experience made the tour feel incomplete. Since the audio is GPS-triggered, missing a turn or marker can sometimes cause the next section not to play, especially on interstate ramps where it may be harder to safely check the map as a solo driver. Could you let me know if you started from the suggested starting point, downloaded the tour in advance, and had location permissions enabled throughout the drive? I’d also like to better understand where the missed turn happened so I can review that section and see if the instructions or trigger points need improvement. I appreciate your note about the optional side trip as well. That’s helpful feedback, and I’m sorry skipping it made the experience feel shorter than expected. Please contact support with your booking details so I can look into this further and help make it right.
