    History Lives Here A Five-Day Tour of Tennessee’s Historic Homes With a rich tapestry of American heritage, Tennessee's historical stomping grounds are sure to enlighten you. Journey down our historical roads and trails for a stroll into Tennessee's legendary past. Tour Tennessee's heritage towns, and immerse yourself in the state's diverse past from Davy Crockett to Elvis Presley. Day One Start with Memphis’ most famous attraction, Elvis Presley's Graceland. Touring Graceland is a one-of-a-kind experience that will lead you on Elvis's fascinating journey to superstardom. You and your group will experience the cultural changes that led to the birth of Rock 'n' Roll and see, first-hand, how Elvis became the most celebrated entertainer in the world.

A 'must' in Memphis is to enjoy lunch on your own down on Beale Street at any one of the many delicious eateries famous for barbeque! The Memphis Pink Palace Museum was originally designed to be the dream home of wealthy entrepreneur Clarence Saunders. It’s name comes from the mansion's ornate pink Georgian marble facade. Saunders, an entrepreneur and founder of Piggly Wiggly, began building the house in the early 1920's but, due to a legal dispute with the New York Exchange, he had to declare bankruptcy and the unfinished building was eventually given to the city in the late 1920’s for use as a museum.
