Graham presented a wonderful recollection of many musical memories from my youth! Listening to such great artists and seeing the recording studio was super great! Recommend to ever who loved the 50s and 60s music!!

The tour was interesting and gave a lot of history. I love when tour guides love their jobs and the tour guide at Sun Studios was happy to be there and his attitude made it easy to listen. The only thing I would say is, it's a bit expensive for 30 minutes.

What an incredible museum and tour! Sun Studio is the home of so many legends, it's worth visiting just to be able to step in the building. The tour is great, though- the tour guide brings the history of the studio to life. He also adds in audio clips of different songs, which really help you understand the impact of different musicians. It's not a huge building, but the tour takes about 45 minutes with the great information from the tour guide. The highlight is the end of the tour, where you get to hold the microphone that so many incredible artists recorded songs with. Don't miss this music tour when in Memphis!

A quaint little museum space and a lovely tour. If you have an hour to spare during your trip to Memphis, I would highly suggest you stop in for a visit. The gift shop was stocked, the coffee smelled delicious, and the tour guide was knowledgeable, passionate, and fun. The artifacts are well preserved and the space is beautiful. Would highly recommend a visit!

Took a tour last September for the first time since living here for 17 years. Really enjoyed it. Went there recently to buy some souvenirs and then person at the register was a top shelf bitch. Really disappointing.

We have been to the Sun studio many times with family and friends and they always put on a very good presentation and tour. Today Josh H. Guided our group through the tour and did an exceptionally Enjoyable and informative Job. He seemed to love what he was doing and was genuinely excited about the history of this wonderful place. Thank you Josh. Your enthusiasm was contagious and we felt the vibe.

I loved my experience at Sun Studio. Our tour guide was the best. He was super enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He made the experience amazing. It was so amazing to stand in the same studio that so many greats have recorded. If you have a limited amount of time in Memphis please make sure to make time to go. You won't regret it.

If these walls could talk, right? History everywhere. What a difference from approaching Graceland. Smaller space for sure, but the history is everywhere here. Very close and approachable exhibits, tour guide was very knowledgeable. Gift store was easily accessible. Can be done in an hour, not recommended for those in a wheelchair, stairs going upstairs and back down stairs. Still a great slice of Americana.

The location itself was bursting with amazing, mind-blowing musical history. Our tour guide, Drew, was incredibly knowledgeable & entertaining. Anyone taking a trip to Memphis should definitely put Sun Studio on their Must-See List.

This tour was so much fun and so informative! You can't make reservations, instead it's first come first served and tours run every hour at the bottom of the hour. Everyone working there yesterday was super friendly and welcoming. They have a lot of cool souvenirs and shirts and sell coffees and juices. Kids under 5 aren't allowed on tours but they're very accommodating- my husband did the first half of the tour and I stayed with our son then we switched so we were both able to do some.

Wanna visit the birthplace of Rock n Roll for $15? Wanna see where Elvis, Johnny Cash and dozens more recorded some of the most timeless music ever? Stand where the greats did and really appreciate a piece of living history.

Elvis may have "left the building" decades ago, but the music, the memories and the zeitgeist that he, Sam Phillips, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and many others created during the mid/late-'50s in this legendary studio in Memphis, TN will never leave! If you love Rock'n'Roll, then make the pilgrimage to Memphis to pay your respects to its birthplace. You won't regret it.

i am sure the tour was great. I didn't go on the tour. this review is about the customer service. I have a service dog due to PTSD and migraines. My dog did have a #2 accident and I began to clean it up. However, when, I asked for paper towels or a trash can, I was told where to get and offered no help. Eventually, and begrudgingly, the employee did help as I was trying to keep people from stepping in it. She then decided to stand over me and berate me with false ADA information about service dogs - my dog is house trained. it was humiliating and demeanin. it also triggered (a word I hate to use) a migraine and my PTSD. Also, my dog never left my side the rest of the night on the last day of my vacation.

Brilliant place to visit. We had a friendly and informative tour guide, and we loved the addition of some of the tracks to punctuate stories about the history of the place. It's not a huge museum, but it was special to be able to be in the recording studio like so many great musicians. We hadn't booked online but were able to pick up tickets on the door, although I know this isn't always the case.
