- Your first stop inside Graceland Mansion will be the foyer where you can view Elvis' living room, dining room, the stairway, and his mother's bedroom. In the foyer was often where special guests were received and shown to the living room, where they would await Elvis to greet them. Elements of decor you see in these rooms today span all of the Elvis eras at Graceland, but the look is primarily the late 1960s to early 1970s incarnation. Next, you will travel through Elvis' kitchen which is a throwback to the 70s. It’s definitely a 70s time capsule. It was left exactly how it was when Elvis lived there. He used to sit at the bar for hours watching his fans at the gate in the security camera and sometimes he would go out and greet them. You will see a red phone in each area of the house and that is Elvis’s personal phone.
We saw the Jungle Room with its green shagged carpets, Polynesian feel and exotically carved wood. This room was once the exterior access to the basement. In the 1960s, during one of Elvis' home improvement projects, it was added to the back of the house - first as a screened in porch and then closed in as a room a few years later. In 1974, Elvis redecorated with the current furnishings he stumbled upon at a Memphis furniture store. This room became a family favorite and Elvis liked it in part because it was reminiscent of Hawaii, where he enjoyed vacationing, film-making and performing.
Then we went to his downstairs area which includes the TV room and billiards room.
From there we exited into a carport where he used to park his cars. Then we saw Vernon Presley’s office where he paid the bills for Elvis and took care of his personal business.
We saw the smokehouse that he used for a shooting range. We visited the trophy building, the Racquetball Building, and the memorial where Elvis and his relatives are buried.
We saw so many personal artifacts from the life of Elvis. We even got to hold a concert belt.
The Ultimate VIP Graceland Tour was a three hour tour. We highly recommend this tour! Our tour guide turned out to be the step brother of Elvis (we found out later). He told so many personal stories. It was the tour of a lifetime from someone who had lived there!
Thank you for sharing. I’m going to Graceland in a week and a half July 20. My very first time. I’ve been an Elvis fan since I was 12. I’m now 64. I’m beyond excited and looking forward to seeing Graceland in person. We also got the VIP tour package and I’m hoping I can hold a personal item of Elvis
You will absolutely love it!!! It’s an amazing experience!
Era la casa de una estrella es muy bello como lo fue el gracias por este videos maravillosos ❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢😢😊😊😊😊

There is no other memory that will stand out like the VIP tour at Graceland. It was the one of the best things I have ever done it is worth everything you will never forget it. They have not only done a beautiful job with the entire place but it is so over the top you would have to spend the entire day there to see it all or come back the next day there is an awful lot they offer I'm more than you could ever believe
We agree! It was such a great experience for us!
Thank you so very much for this video. I didnt know they allowed vidoes to be taken. You are very good at it and editing it. Best one I've seen. I plan on going this year. Looks like a ton of walking with not much rest time. I'm sure a private tour with just a few is more pleasant and exciting than going in elvis week.
Thanks for your kind words! You will enjoy it! It was an amazing experience! One we will never forget 😊
@@RetiredLovingIt human. Subbed today!
I did the graceland v i p tour October 2014 with my friend Irene. We toured the house 3 times it was fantastic

Catching up today on videos we missed during our recent travels. We have learned a lot about Elvis Presley today on your channel. He lived such an amazing life. It is sad that it was cut short. Thanks for sharing your trip to Graceland with us!
We learned so much from our visit to Graceland. It was an amazing place to visit!

Thanks Video 🎉
Thanks so much for watching 🤗
Wow what brilliant tour thank you so much for sharing
Thanks! We appreciate you watching!
@@RetiredLovingIt Amen , I'm still waiting on email our answer
Very interesting. I was surprised at how much stuff they kept. Was neat to travel back in time. I was surprised they didn't have his guitars on display. I enjoyed the tour . keep up the good work
They have a lot of his music stuff across the street at the Graceland complex. It’s amazing all they kept!
Wow! What an incredible experience for you dear. Witnessing this in real is so cool. Every corner looks fantastic💕
It sure was an amazing place to see in person! Thanks so much for watching 😊
thanks for post GR8 stuff 😎👍🏻
We loved our tour! 😊
Loved the Graceland tour, Keith and Terri. Does look like a 70's style with the paneling and carpet. Even Elvis didn't have a big flat screen back then! All the memorabilia that remains there. As you mention it is just like a museum. Beautiful visit! Thanks so much for bringing us along on your tour.
Thanks for watching guys! It was an amazing experience! Thanks for coming along with us!
Actually Elvis did have a big screen tv. It sat in front of the waterfall in the jungle room.
Yes flatscreen uses much less energy than the old boob tubes. Plus greater picture quality
What a love time had like xxx
We loved Graceland! 😀
Beautiful
Thanks 😊
Great tour of Graceland 😎
Thanks! Such an amazing experience! 😊
Excellent 👌👌👌👌
Thanks so very much! 🤗
Brilliant video, one of the best and most comprehensive that I've seen. Thank you for sharing. Did either of you see Elvis when he was alive.? You look just old enough to have been around back then. I am 76 and was 28 when I flew over there from Australia to see him in 1976😊
We never saw him in person. We got married in 1975 and he died in 1977. One of our regrets but who ever would have dreamed that he would die so young?
Wow! How lucky you are. Did you also make it on to his birthplace in Tubalo Mississippi.
Not this trip but the model of his birth home was on display at Graceland. Such an interesting place to visit! So much to see!
We took the Graceland tour in 2014, that was before the big new exhibition complex. When we go back, we're definitely doing the Ultimate VIP tour. Your videos are awesome!
We enjoyed it so much! We definitely want to go back! 🤗
I love your video, but the edits are too quick, I'm constantly hitting the pause key to appreciate the great shots you took. My best on your retirement!
Thank you for that suggestion! In later videos we have slowed it down a bit. TH-cam is a constant learning process for sure. We are loving retirement! 😊
Nice tour. Thanks for sharing
It was amazing to see and experience in person! Thanks for watching 😊 have a blessed weekend 🤗
This video is so so awesome thank you for doing it also I had to say you shot it with grace for Lisa’s son who passed away not long ago I love how y’all showed a photo
Yes, Benjamin’s death was very sad 😞
Glad you enjoyed watching the video!
@@RetiredLovingIt But I loved how respectful and how nice you were about
Honoring Lisa‘s son
@@MissBrittany86 thanks Brittany
Peacocks Given From Linda Thompson! Beautiful!
They sure are!
What a brilliant tour! Thanks, guys. I like all the time capsule type visits.
It was definitely a step back in time! Thanks 😊
WOW! That VIP tour was awesome. We’ve been, but just did the regular tour. Nice.
Thanks! We really enjoyed it!
🙏🇬🇧😎💚💜💓
Loved the video, I will be going in June. I heard there is special merchandise we can buy we that ticket?
I’m not sure about that unless it’s something new. You do however get to hold something that belonged to Elvis which is pretty cool! It’s definitely worth it!
This is awesome! I’ve only been to Memphis once and the wait for a tour was so long my family decided not to go. I love seeing it all and all the info you provided! What a great tour! -S
Thanks! It was amazing to see in person!
I thought it was 23 yrs❤🤭🙏
You’re probably right. We appreciate you watching 😊
✌️😍😍😍
Thanks 😊
@@RetiredLovingIt my pleasure 😊😊
Who was the family member that took you for a tour
We tell about the story of how we found out who it was in our Who Was our Tour Guide video……very interesting so for the details you can watch that but very long story short it was Elvis step-brother
Thank you for the video. If I did a tour that starts at 1:15 p.m., would I have time to go back through the mansion? I was thinking of going to the Museum complex in the morning on my own, then connecting with the guided mansion tour. But I would want to go back through the mansion on my own. Would that work? Would I have enough time? Thanks.
We found it hard to see everything in one day. There was no way we would’ve had time to go back through the mansion but we did the Ultimate VIP Tour so that takes longer than the regular tours
@@RetiredLovingIt I was reading Graceland tour reviews on another site. A lot of people mention John, same tour guide you had. (David Stanley?). Do you have any idea how I could arrange to be on his UVIP tour? I'm wondering who at Graceland I could contact to find out which tours he is conducting.
@vlewin1844 we have no idea. Many people don’t believe it was David but why did he say ‘he lived it and you have no idea’ over and over. I, personally, think he looks just like David. I guess you could ask for John and see what you think.
@@RetiredLovingIt I don't think there's any way to ask for a specific tour guide. But thanks.
Toll nur fehlt der zweite Stock aber der ist bis heute noch für die Öffentlichkeit abgeschirmt vielleicht wird der zweite Stock eines Tages für öffentlichekeit grünes Licht gegeben werden abwarten man weiß nicht.
🤗
What no planes??
The planes in a separate video in our Elvis playlist 👍
I don’t think it looks bad. If it was my home I’d make it look like I wanna make it look I don’t care about other peoples opinions I guess if you’re married, your wife might have some input. Lol
It was an amazing place to tour!
Elvis Presley was a huge fan of Queen Elizabeth II. He had always dreamed of meeting her, and one day, his dream came true.
Elvis was invited to Buckingham Palace to perform for the Queen. He was so excited that he could barely sleep the night before. When he arrived at the palace, he was greeted by a butler who led him to the Queen's chambers.
The Queen was sitting on a throne, and she looked even more regal than Elvis had imagined. He bowed low before her, and she smiled and said, "It is so nice to finally meet you, Mr. Presley. I have been a big fan of yours for many years."
Elvis was so flustered that he could barely speak. He just nodded and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The Queen then asked Elvis to perform for her. He sang a few of his most famous songs, and the Queen seemed to enjoy them. When he was finished, she clapped and said, "That was wonderful, Mr. Presley. Thank you so much for that."
Elvis was so happy that he had finally met the Queen. He knew that he would never forget this day.
As Elvis was leaving the palace, he accidentally bumped into the Queen. She started to sneeze, and a big glob of snot flew out of her nose and on to his cheek. Elvis was so shocked that he just stood there, horrified.
The Queen looked at the snot and then back up at Elvis. She smiled and said, "Oh dear, I seem to have made a mess."
Elvis didn't know what to do. He just stood there, frozen in shock.
The Queen then reached out and touched Elvis's cheek. She said, "Don't worry, Mr. Presley. I'll get rid of it"
Elvis blushed and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
The Queen then leaned in and licked the snot off of Elvis's cheek. Elvis was so surprised that he almost fell over.
The Queen smiled and said, "There, all better."
Elvis didn't know what to say. He just stood there, staring at the Queen.
The Queen then turned and walked away, leaving Elvis standing there, alone and confused.
Elvis never forgot that day. He often thought about the Queen's snot, and how she had licked it off of his cheek. He wondered if she had done it on purpose, or if it was just an accident.
Elvis never saw the Queen again, but he never forgot her. He always thought of her as a kind and generous woman, even if she did lick her snot.
Well….that’s quite a tale 🤗
