Tour Summary: 8 day tour starting in Nashville with a 2-night stay at the the Gaylord Opryland Hotel. The Country Music Hall of Fame is a highlight but the real treat will be the night at the Grand Ole Opry show. Then we motorcoach to Memphis for Elvis, Graceland, Studio B and the Memphis sound. Our trip continues south through Clarksdale for Blues Museum and the music of BB King. Before we get to New Orleans, we’ll tour a plantation and visit the Vicksburg Civil War National Military Park. We will wrap up with 2 nights in New Orleans.
Why we chose this trip: This just seemed like a really interesting trip. We liked the focus on not only the history of jazz, blues and country music but also American history, the Civil War.
