Frommer's Nashville & Memphis (Frommer's Complete) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just came back from my first trip to Memphis and Nashville. I have to say that this book was my life source. We only had a limited amount of time to see everything on our wish list, and this book made it possible to plan the best sites, the best restaurants, where to stay, shop and everything. All of the information it gave was useful and was essential to our amazing trip. They even include fun and comprehensive walking tours. I would recommend this book to anyone going to Nash and Memphis.

With Frommer's in hand, you'll discover the highlights of two major capitals of American music: Nashville, country music's mecca, and Memphis, the city that gave birth to the blues.

From the Grand Ol' Opry to the hallowed halls of Graceland, you'll walk in the footsteps of musical giants.
We've also got the lowdown on the region's best restaurants, serving everything from elegant New Southern cuisine to down-home barbecue.

Detailed and accurate, it all comes complete with neighborhood maps; a complete shopping guide; the best trip-planning advice; and side trips to nearby distilleries and Civil War battlefields.

Frommer's Nashville and Memphis (Frommer's Complete Guides) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This was not a very good guidebook. The directions were not always accurate and the maps (a very important part of a guide book) were not very good. The book is poorly organized, so that you are constantly having to page through to find information.

Our author hits all the highlights, from the Ryman Auditorium and the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville to Beale Street and the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis. She's checked out all the cities' best hotels and restaurants in person, and offers authoritative, candid reviews that will help you find the choices that suit your tastes and budget.
