Elvis Presley's Memphis, New Orleans and Nashville Tour

Discover the world of WC Handy, Robert Johnson, ‘Fats’ Domino, Chuck Berry, Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, Dolly Parton and, of course, Elvis Presley. We’ll take an unforgettable journey through America’s musical heartland, heading from the cradle of the blues and Dixieland Jazz to the undisputed capital of Country Music – Nashville!

Itinerary

Day One
Fly to Atlanta to board the coach for the transfer to your overnight hotel in Montgomery. The Alabama state capital was the birthplace of troubled country superstar Hank Williams, whose all-too-brief but glittering career is celebrated in a fascinating museum in the city.
Day Two
Today you’ll head south, across the sleepy countryside of Harper Lee’s Alabama, into Louisiana and along the Gulf Coast to New Orleans. Soak up the atmosphere of this exuberant and exciting city, perhaps joining our optional steamboat dinner jazz cruise.
Day Three
This morning’s optional guided city tour introduces the ‘Big Easy’. Don’t miss the time-warped, iron-balconied buildings of the French Quarter, centred on Jackson Square. Afterwards, join our optional Louisiana swampland excursion for a glimpse of the city’s surrounding countryside and a taste of Creole life. Head back to the ‘Quarter’ tonight, to immerse yourself once again in the place where the legacy of Louis Armstrong and ‘King’ Oliver lives on in innumerable bars and clubs, and on every lively street corner.
Day Four
Leaving New Orleans today you’ll start your Elvis journey with a visit to Tupelo, where you might wish to visit the tiny house that was the star’s birthplace (entrance payable locally). Afterwards, a short journey brings you to Elvis’s beloved hometown, the bustling cotton capital of Memphis. This evening, head out to explore the endlessly varied bars and restaurants of colourful Beale Street.
Day Five
Don’t miss today’s optional full-day Memphis Sounds excursion, which will include a visit to the famous Sun Studio, the recording birthplace of legends from Elvis to the mighty BB King, and to perhaps the most famous southern ‘mansion’ of all, Elvis’s iconic Graceland.
Day Six
Enjoy a scenic drive through the wooded Tennessee hills and farmland to Nashville, the world capital of country music.
Day Seven
Today’s optional excursion introduces you to the Country Music Hall of Fame and legendary Studio B – the starting point for more popular hits than any other recording studio in the USA.
Day Eight
Journey south to cheery Chattanooga – of Choo-Choo fame – for a short visit, then head to Atlanta Airport in the afternoon to board your flight home.
Day Nine
Arrive back home, after an overnight flight.

All-inclusive Mauritius, from £999pp

I have been to Mauritius many times and it is my Top 3 of places that I have visited.

Why it is The Solana Beach so amazing…

Solana is an fabulous resort on the east coast of Mauritius with airy, modern rooms that are right on the superb beach. You can sit in bed and gaze out over the tranquil ocean and, if you’d like to wake up in a four-poster bed, you can also upgrade to a more elegant Deluxe Room. Some of the rooms also open straight out onto the beach where you can spend lazy days relaxing and have fresh coconut water or fruit punch delivered to your sun lounger.

You can join a free snorkelling trip or book a relaxing massage at the Ylang Spa which may be just as relaxing as that Discreet VIP Massage Toronto; and there are lots of free watersports to try down at the boathouse. You can eat at the buffet restaurant with its live cooking stations or dine under the stars at Pomelo Restaurant. There’s also an adults-only restaurant called Secrets Corner in a quiet area of the hotel. It’s the place to go for a romantic evening overlooking the ocean.

It’s good to know that during your stay, you can enjoy two à la carte meals at Pomelo and one at Secrets Corner, which is great value for money. Once dinner is over, head to Indigo Bar for a cocktail, soak up the hippie-chic atmosphere and listen to a live band or DJ.

Spa* with free access to sauna and hammam, pool, fitness centre, aquagym, watersports including canoes, pedal boats, windsurfing, mini sails and snorkelling outings, beach volleyball, table tennis, 2 tennis courts, kids’ club with pool, bocci ball, boutique*, live entertainment, Wi-Fi

Restaurants & bars

The main, indoor restaurant Cinnamone serves all three meals at an international buffet with live cooking stations including a grill, tandoor and pizza oven, while the open-air Pomelo offers a refined à la carte lunch and dinner menu. Secrets Corner is an elegant adults-only evening spot, providing a romantic backdrop for traditional and modern cuisine alike with personalised service. There are also two bars to choose from: Indigo Bar for creative cocktails and wines overlooking the swimming pool, or Coco Bar to kick back with a beer or soft fruit juice underneath palm and coconut trees.
Spa & wellness

The serene Ylang Spa offers a variety of relaxing treatments in one of its five massage rooms, as well as free access to its sauna and steam bath.

For Children

A kids’ mini club is open daily from 9am-8pm, with trained staff on hand to look after younger guests (age 3-11). Solana Beach offers the option for children’s meals to be served earlier in the main restaurant and there’s also babysitting available, free to Kuoni guests.

Golf

Nearby you’ll find three golf courses (extra cost) – two 18-hole championship courses at Constance Belle Mare Plage, and the spectacular 18-hole Bernhard Langer-designed course on Ile au Cerfs, an island across the water from Le Touessrok that’s regularly voted among the best and most beautiful golf courses in the world.
