This jukebox journey takes you from the home of Country music, Blues, and Rock ‘n’ Roll to the multi-cultural melting pot of New Orleans - peppered throughout with the flavours of the South.

Premium Experiences & Dining: Walk through musical history, decade by decade at the Country Music Hall of Fame. Even after all these years, to strut the stage of the Grand Ole Opry is still the aspiring country stars’ dream. Take a backstage tour of the Ryman Auditorium, the home of the Grand Ole Opry from 1943 to 1974. Then attend a live taping of the famous country music radio program. Visit Sun Studios, where Rock ‘n’ Roll royalty recorded and see luthiers fashioning the iconic instruments cherished by the likes of Eric Clapton, Pete Townsend and Keith Richards on a tour of the Gibson Guitar Factory. Even some 30 years after Elvis left the building, you’ll find Graceland a fitting tribute to both the flamboyant talent and manic excess of the man they call the King. Capture a piece of American history among the batteries and blockades of Vicksburg National Military Park. The epic siege of the city is considered the turning point of the Civil War.
