4 days in Memphis Itinerary

The largest city on the Mississippi River, Memphis bills itself as both the "Birthplace of Rock" and "Home of the Blues." With such a rich musical heritage, it shouldn't come as a surprise that Elvis Presley chose to live in Memphis during his later years.

Your day-by-day itinerary now includes Mud Island, Stax Museum of American Soul Music, A. Schwab, and other attractions you added. There's still lots to do: steep yourself in history at Sun Studio, appreciate the extensive heritage of Beale Street, and pause for some photo ops at National Civil Rights Museum - Lorraine Motel.
