About this activity

This experience combines a private guided Memphis tour with a scheduled visit to Graceland using pre-purchased Elvis Experience tickets.

You’ll begin with a 2.5–3 hour private driving tour exploring the Memphis locations that shaped Elvis’s early life, followed by a self-guided visit inside Graceland using your included tickets.

Your Graceland visit includes a scheduled mansion entry time, access to the official audio tour, exhibits, and museums. This portion is self-guided and takes place alongside other guests.

This is a half-day experience (approximately 6–7 hours total) designed for travelers who want both a guided Memphis experience and time to explore Graceland independently.

If you prefer a shorter, guide-led experience without Graceland, the Private Elvis Tour in Memphis – The Early Years of the King (1.5 hours) is also available.
