Elvis Presley's Graceland: Ultimate VIP Experience

Walk the rooms, gardens, and private jet of the King of Rock 'n' Roll at his legendary Memphis estate. Graceland is one of the most visited private homes in America — an absolute bucket-list pilgrimage for music lovers.

What to expect

The self-guided audio tour (narrated by John Scheinfeld) leads you through the jungle room, trophy building, racquetball court turned museum, and the Meditation Garden where Elvis is buried. The VIP upgrade adds the private Elvis archive, rare memorabilia, and priority entry that eliminates wait times. The adjoining Elvis Presley's Memphis complex houses his custom aircraft, vintage car collection, and award-winning restaurants. The scale and intimacy of the estate never fail to astonish, even for those who arrive as skeptics.
