I have been fortunate to visit Memphis on no less than five occasions, with many more hopefully to follow. Just as a visit to Memphis wouldn't be complete without a visit to Gracelands, neither would a visit to the famous Sun Studios. It never fails to give a great insight into what it must have been like in July 1954.... more

We went to the Sun Studios as a part of our 'education' about the music in Memphis. You cannot skip Graceland but you also must visit one of the true birthplaces of 50's Rock & Roll. To be able to stand in the studio where Elvis first recorded and to hold the mike he used was awesome. The staff there... more

Quite busy and you sometimes have to struggle to see but what a tour. this was it all started - Elvis, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis etc. etc. The tour itself is brilliant and if there is a critisism it would be that I would have liked more. however there is a feeling that a lot of the people present... more

I don't know alot about Elvis, Carl Perkins or some of the others who first recorded here at Sun, but that did not stop me from thoroughly enjoying an excellent tour at this landmark recording studio August 2008. It was a Saturday morning and the tour was sold out but our tour guide was fantastic and managed the group well.... more

I normally hate tour guides because they are normally so cheesy but our tour guide at Sun Studio was very cool and very knowledgeable regarding the Studio and the artist who had performed there. We were not surprised at all that he was a musician himself. Short tour but the place is small. Cool way to spend an hour or... more

This should be required for anyone who is a fan of music! You can feel the electricity in the air when you walk in. The tour is a must, and is pretty cheap. The tour guides (at least the one on my tour) really care about the history of the place, and know its significance in music history. Beyond this,... more

We loved our trips to Sun Studio. To hold the mikrophone that Elvis sang through was something else. One of our highlights to Memphis from Glasgow. more

The Sun Studio tour was a highlight of our trip to Memphis. It was friendly, intimate, and authentic. Getting here can be a challenge - it is NOT walking distance from Beale street or downtown, although it may seem so on the map. Sun Studio has a free shuttle service from major Memphis attractions - highly recommended! The building is... more
