Longtime Memphian here. 1. No, you don't need half a day to see the civil rights museum. You can get through it and see everything thoroughly within two hours at most. 2. Be very very careful on Beale Street. If you get off the beaten path at night or in dark areas you will likely get robbed. 3. Big River Crossing is nice if you walk or run. You can also rent a bike. It's not very scenic but it's great for exercise in spring or fall. 4. The Zoo is definitely worth it. As the narrator says, it's one of the best.
I live in Memphis and you have made me want to take a staycation in my own town. There is still a feel of funk in Memphis and if there is a street fair, go.
I never really thought much or anything about visiting Memphis. I’m not even finished watching the video and I am already planning a Mother/daughter Memphis trip in my head and can’t wait to go. High up on the trip list!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Even though Memphis is famous, many Americans have never visited because it’s geographically so far from the East and West coast. To get their you would normally have to travel by airplane. …..Another reason why many Americans have never visited is because there’s not much in the surrounding areas. It’s mostly rural areas
Memphis Botanical Gardens and Dixon Gallery and Gardens are awesome, too. Also, catch a show at the Orpheum Theater!! Love this video. Lived here 10 years. So much wonderful opportunities!!
I went in March '22 and the Ultimate VIP Tour of Graceland was $196 a person. Now its $202-$225 each but the UVIP Tour gives you a personal tour guide for either 6 or 8 people. Its an awesome experience bc im such a big Elvis fan!!
this is the BEST video I've ever seen or could imagine for Memphis. I lived there during its PEAK (1991 - 1993) and absolutely loved it. When I went back and visited last year, my heart was broken to see the ghetto dump it is now. Thank you for this wonderful video. It is everything that is great and could've helped make the city into the capital of the south. It brought back such nice memories.
I will correct one thing… I had to spend my whole day on the civil rights museum. That place is so well done and will affect you so very much. I was useless the rest of the day… I don’t see how half a day is even enough it’s a big museum and it’s so well done!!! I’m a huge Elvis fan and always go to memphis for Graceland and Elvis events but I’m so glad I went to the civil rights museum. It’s amazingly well done. Also sun studios is a very fun tour. All the tour guides are great! ❤ be careful in memphis at night. Know your surroundings.
This was a FANtastic video, highlighting GO TO places in Memphis. I had no idea that we missed so much. There's always NEXT TIME. Thank you, so much... 👏🤠☀️👏
@Michael A Memphis is not a crap hole, if you choose to be like this you can find something bad about every city, Memphis isn’t perfect sure, with the crime, some events that happened, and the amount of homeless people/ beggars. But we have great food, events, and your experience can vary based on where you go, most of the touristy stuff is in downtown, but a bunch of the things locals do aren’t in downtown
Great spotlight on Memphis. I love Elmwood Cemetery with its historic tours especially about Yellow Fever and the Metal Museum. Excited for the food video and would love to see Molly Fontaine’s featured.
The Memphis Botanic Gardens is pretty and in summer has music. There’s free shows at the Levitt Shell sometimes. The Brooks Art Museum and the metal museum are interesting as well as the Pink Palace and children’s museum (last 2 especially if you have kids)… Then there’s the Cooper Young area with a cool vibe and restaurants that sometimes have music and Overton Square which has restaurants and the railgarten. There of course is the Orpheum for broadway shows and performances. People in Memphis tend to like food and live music. :) Also for an unique experience Elmwood Cemetery is pretty cool if you like history.
Having lived in Memphis for a significant part of my life, just want to say you covered it well and in a positive light. Might have been a bit too kind to Mud Island as it tends to be a huge let down to most and usually poorly maintained. But everything else you hit right on. The only other place I would have included is the Pink Palace Museum which is the former mansion of the guy who started Piggly Wiggly. Great job - especially on the zoo!

@@charlesdegraffenreaid8311 A couple of things: 1. A rename is desperately needed. 2. The city needs to do a better job of maintenance. 3. There used to be several restaurants that brought the locals over...they're long gone. 4. There needs to be attractions like Chicago's Navy Pier on the island to regularly attract tourists and residents alike. I think a big ferris wheel near the tip would be great!!!

Hey there, born and raised in Memphis, your last destination, the crystal shrine grotto has SO MANY MORE secrets and features that I bet not nearly anyone knows about, my father has worked at memorial park for many years and he grew up in Memphis. For starters, the fountain outside the grotto has faces built into the base that you can spot looking from the ancient log crypt. Next to that crypt to the top left of the concrete, is a depiction of jesus laying down (like him in the tomb I assume) that’s built straight into the rock! Sort of hidden unless you stand on top of the tomb. Also the tree that was man made from the same special material created for the entire grotto. The grottos granite and quarts was made from materials sourced from Arkansas and the composite used to make the entire thing is still a trade secret to this day. Also if you noticed as you exited the grotto to the left there seemed to have been a pedestal for something, and being that Memphis is Memphis, someone stole the giants quartz I believe. Note: I will re-edit this comment after conferring with my father who is probably the only man that works at memorial park who knows anything about all of this.
Awesome 👏, I’ve always wanted to visit Memphis but never had the chance, this gives me a good idea of places to visit whenever I get the chance to go. Thanks Josh!
I can't believe you didn't mention the Pink Palace (they're calling it the "Memphis Museum of Science and History", but we all know it's The Pink Palace), the Botanical Garden, The Belz Museum of Asian and Judaic art in the downtown area, (a small, affordable and filled to the brim with beautiful Asian artifacts); there's also The Broom Closet and Lucyja Hygge, if you're into the metaphysical (or just like beautiful crystals and a good vibes). There's an Asian store, too, called Viet Hoa Market, where you can get Asian exports, and a car museum called Edge Motor Museum (I've never been but it has good reviews).
I hate that they renamed it, I don’t know anyone who calls it the name it’s supposed to be unless one of the school’s needs a parental consent form for a field trip, everyone else just calls it the pink palace
I went to visit a friend for the weekend. Memphis is a cool spot but I wouldn't go there again, or just for the city itself. The downtown area is very small and the surrounding area is pretty run down. Had the best ribs I've ever had in my life. Place is cool!
Great list... and while visiting the grotto, make sure to visit Isaac Hayes' grave, which is nearby... country music legend Charlie Rich, Sam Phillips, Elvis' legendary producer, and Bobby "Blue" Bland are also buried here.
My father was the one who helped design his grave plack, unfortunately they’ve got a few spaces over some dude called jay “retard” who was a guitarist who tried to smoke heroin
This video makes memphis look like paradise🤣🤣🤣...I've lived here in east memphis for 30years & have seen this city go down down down....to the people wanting to visit....be careful & aware of your surroundings
The number one tourist attraction of Memphis is obviously Elvis's mansion in Graceland. That's also the only reason why I want to go to Memphis being an Elvis fan.
Don't kid yourself, Memphis is the worst place in Tn to visit..there are daily shooting in the Beale street area, carjackings, drive by shootings just to name a few..born and raised there..Finally at age 64 i had enough now live in Sippi..Take if from someone who knows, there is nothing in Mempho to see that's worth risking your life over......
I used to live here as a kid I moved to Nashville at about 10 years old and as the days go on this city scares me to this day I have no idea how I managed to live there for 10 years

You totally made me want to go to Memphis! I have wanted to see the Civil Rights Museum, but I had no idea there were so many other neat things to do in Memphis.
Memphis is a fascinating city with interesting spots with very interesting history but at the same time, you may be disappointed. The city has severely declined so it’s not for everyone.
@@bwmwm Memphis is a ghost town. Take a drive on a weekday and walk the streets. There is no hustle and bustle. So many empty sidewalks all over the city. Beale street area is almost empty on a weeknight . ….Also according to Wikipedia the population is declining
1. Run 2. tote a strap 3. don’t come outside 4. mind ya business 5. lock all doors security system 6. trust no one 7. be on the lookout for “setups” 8. no out of state plates 9. stay out the hood 10. stay out of downtown. crime has migrated 11. live at least 100 miles from the city 12. hide 🙈 13. always be alert 14. did i say tote a strap? locked and loaded
When I went I couldn't get to mud island or big river crossing simply because I couldn't find access to them,like parking so if you have tips I need em
Now, please: which place in Memphis we MUST NO go alone ? I would like to go to visit Graceland and different places where Elvis used to go BUT ALSO I WANT be able to go back in Paris, France my hometown on my feet and no in the coffin!))
@@bwmwm This is exactly what I would have wanted to do: walk alone in Memphis to the different places frequented by Elvis and, on foot... Thank you very much for your feedback, for your advice :) I am rather independent and I didn't want to do an organized trip but I will think about it if it is more reasonable ☘️💙🕺💙🇫🇷
If you stay downtown, make sure it’s the expensive hotels by the FedEx forum, Beale St. etc like the Peabody. For reasonable most will stay in Cordova (by Wolfchase Mall) or further out. Stay away from around the airport and what would be consider south and north Memphis proper.
@@craigm3994 it’s horrible. Downtown Memphis is 5 minutes away in any direction from the ghetto. Be careful with Beale street once it gets dark and if you carry your wallet mark sure you keep it in your from pocket. It’s not safe what so ever. It’s just highlighted because of how much money business owners have put into it.
It’s a dangerous city and don’t trust anyone even the homeless and yourself because the city is now turned into a wasteland of crime and you can’t enjoy nothing in Memphis because of shootings, Car theft, robbery, kidnappings, school shootings, the heat, dumb drivers, potholes, and drugs so it’s best not to travel in Memphis because if you do you will be back home with nothing and the police won’t do nothing
All cities have crime. Turn the news on when you vacation and it’s wherever you go. Nashvegas isn’t much better a few streets good and then you are in shady areas a lot of bigger cities are that way. The Botanic Gardens have a big display of Alice in Wonderland made all of flowers until October. These sculptures are huge! In all travels you should be aware of your surroundings and take precautions. Thanks for the video!
Just visited, if you’re thinking about it, go to Beale Street for a day and that’s it, lots of homeless and prostitution. It was never as crowded like in video, not safe after 10 pm. Lots of useless police playing on there phone. The rest of Memphis was awesome. Nashville was a million times better. BTW when I go on vacation I never complain. Just wasn’t happy with downtown Memphis.
MY FAVORITE SPOT WAS THE PLACE WHERE MY WONDERFUL WIFE PASSED HER CITIZENSHIP TEST THAT MADE HER MY AMERICAN WIFE INSTEAD OF MY BRITISH-SOUTH AFRICAN WIFE.
Hi Josh, thank you so much for this wonderful video of Memphis. My wife and I are going soon, and we wanted to ask you how easy it is to get around the city without a car. Is a car needed in your experience? Thank you.
lol every city has crime just stay away. I’m not from Tennessee I’m from Mississippi but I moved to Memphis been here for the last 30 years. Never been carjacked,robbed,in a fight,not even an argument,and I go to a lot of bars downtown. Theirs no place else I’ll rather be. And I’ve been to a lot of cities.
As of 2022, if you come here I hope it's just passing through. We aren't a safe city, we aren't a city worth being in, and the best thing to do here is get tf out

It is pretty bad

It’s a dangerous city and don’t trust anyone even the homeless and yourself because the city is now turned into a wasteland of crime and you can’t enjoy nothing in Memphis because of shootings, Car theft, robbery, kidnappings, school shootings, the heat, dumb drivers, potholes, and drugs so it’s best not to travel in Memphis because if you do you will be back home with nothing and the police won’t do nothing
I’m from the UK and was looking to visit Memphis New York doesn’t interest me I wanna see some true culture worth going?
All cities have crime. Turn the news on when you vacation and it’s wherever you go. Nashvegas isn’t much better a few streets good and then you are in shady areas a lot of bigger cities are that way. The Botanic Gardens have a big display of Alice in Wonderland made all of flowers until October. These sculptures are huge! In all travels you should be aware of your surroundings and take precautions. Thanks for the video!
Just visited, if you’re thinking about it, go to Beale Street for a day and that’s it, lots of homeless and prostitution. It was never as crowded like in video, not safe after 10 pm. Lots of useless police playing on there phone. The rest of Memphis was awesome. Nashville was a million times better. BTW when I go on vacation I never complain. Just wasn’t happy with downtown Memphis.
Plan to visit 2023
Just becareful when you go to Beale St. Shooting go on.
I went to the crosstown concourse for the first time to film my music video and I loved it
MY FAVORITE SPOT WAS THE PLACE WHERE MY WONDERFUL WIFE PASSED HER CITIZENSHIP TEST THAT MADE HER MY AMERICAN WIFE INSTEAD OF MY BRITISH-SOUTH AFRICAN WIFE.
"So this is the fabeled tilted towers?"

GRACIAS POR LOS VIDEOS...
No problem!
Hi Josh, thank you so much for this wonderful video of Memphis. My wife and I are going soon, and we wanted to ask you how easy it is to get around the city without a car. Is a car needed in your experience? Thank you.
Theirs your usual lift drivers and Uber etc… buses also but that’ll be slow.
#15 - don't die
Great timing since some dude went in a rampage across the city
Number 1. Is get out of there
Born and raised in Memphis and never been to Graceland. A lot of us hasn’t.
#1 get shot, #2 get kidnapped, #3 get car jacked, etc…
1. Leave
lol every city has crime just stay away. I’m not from Tennessee I’m from Mississippi but I moved to Memphis been here for the last 30 years. Never been carjacked,robbed,in a fight,not even an argument,and I go to a lot of bars downtown. Theirs no place else I’ll rather be. And I’ve been to a lot of cities.
I'm a native of nashville don't stop for gas with out security
You forgot the hood bom bom
As of 2022, if you come here I hope it's just passing through. We aren't a safe city, we aren't a city worth being in, and the best thing to do here is get tf out
Elvis lived in Memphis? 😮
Birth place of rock n' roll.
I used to love Memphis but my "14 Things To Do" are all the same now....put it in my rearview mirror.
