The home Elvis purchased at age 22, located about ten minutes from downtown Memphis

Located about ten minutes from downtown Memphis, Graceland is the home that Elvis acquired at the age of 22, at the height of his fame. He stayed there until his death with his parents and grandmother, all of whom are buried in the Meditation Garden adjacent to the house. It is a place obviously revered by the King's fans: the flow of visitors never stops and is particularly impressive at the time of the celebration of his death, in August. With the Platinum Tour, you will have access to the King's house, entirely decorated by him (in a more or less happy way); his car collection (impressive); his two jets and his collection of stage costumes (quite a program), to which are added temporary exhibitions. A French audio guide for the tour of The Mansion is included in the price of the ticket. Don't be put off when you arrive at the site: it stretches along both sides of the huge Elvis Presley Boulevard, in an uninterrupted flow of traffic. A shuttle bus takes you to The Mansion, located on the other side of the box office and related exhibits. If you want to discover the world of the King of Rock n' Roll, this is a must-see visit in Memphis. And why not prolong the experience and sleep on the spot.

Sur le site de Graceland, c’est le King qui vous fait vibrer. Guidé par un IPad en français, vous visitez toute la propriété, allant de salons en salles de jeu et de musique.
Les salles des disques d’or et de platine sont chargées de souvenirs sonores. Lorsque l’on passe devant les tombes, on est ému.
Les collections de voitures et d’avions sont impressionnantes.
Et on ne quitte pas l’endroit sans fredonner « Blue Suede Shoes » ou un des airs qui ont été chantés lors de ses concerts... et nous reviennent en écho.

Indispensable à voir à Memphis ! Après la maison, nous avons vu les voitures et même les avions d'Elvis. Impressionnant ! Une visite à la fois culturelle et amusante. L'audioguide en français est très bien fait et donne de nombreuses informations. Un peu d'attente parfois mais le personnel est très accueillant.

On ne peut pas passer par Memphis sans aller à Graceland. Elvis, c'était notre génération; la visite était donc un pèlerinage et nous y avons consacré une bonne demie journée, avec un audio-guide. Il y a beaucoup de monde qui circule sur le grand domaine et dans la maison qui est devenue un véritable musée dédiée au souvenir du King. Passage obligé devant sa tombe et celles de sa famille. Il y a de quoi se restaurer sur place et de manger le "meatloaf Elvis favorite", juste pour le fun !

A visit very moving and full. The price can slow down at first sight but if you love music of King, without being a great fan, the visit is for you. With Ipad, we visit the houses at our rhythm and in French. Complete with video and photos is added on Ipad as the visit. After 3:00 of visit we are moved " of apprendre" that King died. Magical!
