Graceland Mansion
Graceland Mansion
Settled on 14 acres, the mansion that the Presleys called home is the second most famous house in America and one of the most visited homes in America today.
Get "all shook up" with the ultimate Graceland tour, which takes you inside Elvis' beloved mansion, through two museums, aboard the king's custom airplanes, and much more! The Platinum Tour includes an audio tour of the Graceland Mansion, where you'll hear an informative narrative, family memories from Lisa Marie, and commentary from the King Himself. Tour eight rooms of the main house, including the famed 'jungle' den, the racquetball building, original business office, and the trophy building. You'll go on a self guided tour of his two custom airplanes, the Hound Dog II and the Lisa Marie, commonly referred to as the "Flying Graceland." And for those looking for a sentimental time of remembrance, you'll have the opportunity to visit and place flowers upon Elvis' final resting place in the Meditation Garden.

If you Love Elvis, you should check out Elvis Presley's Heartbreak Hotel, located right next door to Graceland! 

Elvis Presley

With over one billion records sold worldwide, 149 songs appearing on the Billboard Pop Charts, over 100 Top 40 hits, and 40 Top Ten hits, Elvis Presley is the incontestable "King."

Customer Reviews
I wish we had taken more time with the tour, but it was so hot when we were there, maybe the next time we'll do it at a cooler time of year.

-Timothy Jeffers, Allardt, TN
I travelled all the way from Ireland to Memphis to visit Graceland. Any true fan will know that this visit is more that your average holiday trip - it is realy an experience. Visiting the house of Elvis, a person who had enthralled me for over 30 years, was something I had hoped for for many years - never realy expecting to get there. I spent nearly 5 hours at Graceland - taking in every detail of every room - it was totally fascinating - seein the rooms where Elvis ate, played and recorded. The museum out back is full of fascinating articfacts - but what stopped me in my tracks was when I came to his graveside - I went cold finding it hard to believe that I was there - standing at the Grave of Elvis Presley. Others passed by - but to them I could see it was just another stop on a tour - to a true Elvis fan it was something incredible. To any Elvis fan who has ever thought of going - I say just do it - what ever it costs it is worth every cent. While in Memphis the Sun Studios tour is also great - the staff give a real good talk, you get to see everything you want and you dont get rushed out of the place. I took a drive to Tupelo next day and again its well worth it - the house and museum are excellent. Just do it - he was and is the King - its the trip of a lifetime.

I found the line to get on the shuttle bus a bit long. It wasn't very long a wait to get on the bus but for older people it could be tiring. I am a big Elvis fan so it was nice being up close seeing things in my Elvis books.We weren't aloud on the top floor or to use a flash when taking pictures in the buildings. However, I understood this. Elvis has personal things and as for the camera over years the light could discolor items of value. I got some nice pictures and already my fellow Elvis fans are thinking of doing the trip.Thanks for a well compact package at an afordable price.
