Hound Dog Tour Extended During Elvis Week 2013
July 22, 2013
Elvis Week partner Backbeat Tours has added additional dates for the Hound Dog Tour during Elvis Week. As unique as the man himself, the Hound Dog Tour takes a one-of-a-kind approach to sharing Elvis’ legacy in a high-energy concert and sightseeing tour all rolled into one. Hear all of your favorite Elvis hits performed live on Memphis’ only music-bus, while touring the places where Elvis spent his teenage years as well as launched his early career, changing music forever.
Passengers can extend the fun by adding optional visits inside either Lauderdale Courts (Thursday, August 15) or Sun Studio (Wednesday, August 14 and Friday, August 16). Second only to Graceland, Lauderdale Courts is the Memphis home Elvis lived in the longest. Meticulously restored to its 1950s appearance, a visit to Apartment 328 of the Courts is like taking a step back in time, offering an unparalleled glimpse into the lives of Vernon, Gladys and young Elvis.
*Please Note: If you choose to visit either Lauderdale Courts or Sun Studio, the tour will last approximately 2.5 hours.
