Explore the rooms where Elvis lived and created music, and see his stunning collection of jumpsuits and gold records. Visit the historic Beale Street whilst in Memphis, lined with clubs and bars, this street has been the starting point for many legendary musicians. The live music here ranges from blues to rock, so no matter what your taste, you are sure to have a great time.

Another gem in Memphis is Sun Studio, the birthplace of rock and roll. This iconic recording studio is where Elvis, Johnny Cash, and Jerry Lee Lewis recorded their hits. A guided tour of Sun Studio offers a glimpse into the magic that happened within its walls.

The final destination is New Orleans, Louisiana, the birthplace of jazz. The city’s vibrant music scene is unmatched, with jazz being the heartbeat of New Orleans. From legendary venues to street performances, jazz is everywhere in this lively city.

The French Quarter is a must-visit for anyone. Its unique architecture, combined with the sounds of jazz, creates an unforgettable atmosphere.
