Must stop if you're a Rock and Roll fan. History of the music that came out of the museum if special.

We were in town for a little getaway and decided to do this tour. It was fabulous! Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the history of this place. The entrance price was reasonable and our tour lasted ~1 hour. It was neat to learn about all of the musicians who have recorded here. Definitely recommend!

This was one of our favorite stops on our entire journey so far. It is weird to see so much history packed into such a small space. I wasn’t sure how they could do a full tour of such a small building, but our tour guide made it worth every penny. I highly recommend this to anyone who loves music.
