When Saskia and I spent a week in Memphis and Tupelo in September 2025, we honestly didn’t want to leave.
Never before had we arrived somewhere and felt so instantly at home. We had heard about Southern hospitality, of course — but experiencing it for ourselves was something else entirely. The warmth of the people, the rich culture, and that wonderful small-town feel, even in a big city, absolutely captured us. We talked about it constantly.
As music lovers and history buffs, we couldn’t imagine a better way to spend our days than exploring the iconic recording studios, legendary bars, cafés, and landmarks once frequented by greats like Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Carl Perkins.
And now, we want to share that experience with you.
Come with us as we expand our unforgettable music journey through America’s Deep South — from the Queen of Country herself, Dolly Parton, and her iconic Dollywood, where you can explore her fascinating museums and maybe even enjoy a spin around the theme park… to Nashville, where no visit would be complete without the legendary Grand Ole Opry.
Then it’s on to Memphis, home of Graceland, and Tupelo — our personal favourite — the birthplace of Elvis Presley. And finally, we finish in the soulful, vibrant city that gave the world jazz: New Orleans where we cruise through moss laden swamps before experiencing the thrill of being Clarke Gable or Vivien Leigh for an afternoon at an original plantation mansion.
This carefully crafted, once-in-a-lifetime tour has been thoughtfully designed by us in conjunction with Kelly Tours in South Carolina, giving you the best of both worlds — our personal insight and hosting, combined with trusted local knowledge, guides, and on-the-ground tour directors throughout.
This is more than just a holiday. It’s music, memories, history, heart — and a chance to experience the Deep South the way it should be experienced.
