On the way to Memphis, we’ll visit Natchez to see Antebellum mansions, these plantation houses are an icon of the southern states and a reminder of their historical ties to slavery.

In Tupelo, we’ll see the birthplace of Elvis Presley and learn about his childhood. In Memphis, listen to blues, jazz and rock ‘n’ roll spill out from the clubs along Beale Street.
