Review of Memphis
Memphis
Flights to Memphis land you in a vibrant city, with Graceland in South Memphis, after-hours blues clubs on Beale Street and the nation's best barbecue restaurants.
Things to do
Holidays in Memphis bring musical history alive in the South Main and Midtown Districts. You can visit Sun Studio, which made Johnny Cash famous, see handmade Gibson guitars along Beale Street and Elvis' estate at Graceland in South Memphis.
Shopping
Beale Street is one of the best places for Elvis and Memphis memorabilia, but there are also traditional shops at Peabody Place shopping centre Downtown. Before your holidays in Memphis are over, visit Memphis Flea Market for barbecue seasoning and mountain crafts.
Restaurants
After flights to Memphis, you could tuck into some of the city's famous barbecue restaurants, such as Downtown's Rendezvous or at Neely's Bar-B-Que. In Germantown you'll find trendy eateries like Swanky's Taco Shop and upmarket dining in South Main.
Nightlife
A night on Beale Street is a ticket to Memphis fun, with clubs like BB King's Blues Club and Rum Boogie Café. Or buy tickets to Memphis' Orpheum Theatre, and a Memphis Grizzlies game at the FedEx Forum.
When to go
