Follow the rhythm of America’s musical heartland on an 11-day journey through Nashville, The Shoals, the Mississippi Delta and Memphis.
Combining the South’s best-known music cities with places clients may be less familiar with creates a richer journey through the story of American music.
Start with four nights in Nashville, where country music, songwriting and honky tonks set the scene, with visits to the Country Music Hall of Fame, RCA Studio B and a Grand Ole Opry show with backstage tour. Then head south via Lynchburg and the Jack Daniel’s Distillery.
Spend two nights in Florence, the ideal base for exploring Muscle Shoals and the legendary studios where some of America’s most influential records were created. From there, follow the Blues Highway into the Mississippi Delta for a night in Clarksdale, surrounded by blues history, live music and juke-joint culture. Finish with three nights in Memphis, where Sun Studio, Beale Street and Graceland bring rock‘n’roll and soul history to life. It’s a well-paced journey that can be booked as featured or tailor-made by Travel USA to suit your clients, with destinations, experiences and length of stay adapted to create their own Southern adventure.
