Jake and Chris were both amazing! Jake (our driver) had an awesome personality, very friendly but not too friendly. And Chris (the owner) was very polite as well. They truly want everyone to enjoy their time in Nashville! We will most definitely go back to them when we make another trip! I don't typically give reviews, much less 5 STARS but they have earned it for sure!

Our tour guide Ms. Jackie deserves a standing ovation for the most entertaining yet informative tour we've ever been on. Ms. Jackie greeted us with open arms and pretty much hugged us with her enthusiasm, creativity, passion and knowledge the entire 2 1/2 to 3 hours. I became so mesmerized by the Memphis afro-american and civil rights history and taking photos in the van, that I actually slid off my seat! We all had a good laugh which helped with digesting the tragedies that have happened in history to innocent people because of racism. It was all the previous excellent reviews that made us want to take this tour and we were not disappointed. We are so happy that we made this choice since we only had one full day to spend in Memphis. We are so glad that Ms. Jackie pointed out The Four Way soul food restaurant where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, B.B. King and Aretha had all eaten at. We went back after the tour and OMG!! The best country fried steak ever!! Thank you Ms. Jackie for giving us a lasting memory. We want to go back!
