About the trip

This Riviera Travel escorted tour covers a broad swathe of southern American culture and history over 13 nights. Starting in Atlanta, the route quickly moves to Tennessee, where you visit Lynchburg's Jack Daniel Distillery, a small town with a single traffic light and a surprising dry county that produces famous whisky. Nashville offers an extensive look at country music, including the Country Music Hall of Fame and RCA Studio B, where Elvis and other legends recorded.

Further west is Memphis, with visits to the Ryman Auditorium and Graceland, along with the National Civil Rights Museum at the Lorraine Motel, site of Martin Luther King’s assassination. Crossing the Mississippi River into Louisiana, New Orleans awaits with its French Quarter, a lively mix of art galleries, white stucco cathedrals, and the iconic Bourbon Street. To the west in Texas, the tour includes Houston's NASA Johnson Space Center, San Antonio’s Alamo and the scenic River Walk, and finally Dallas with Dealey Plaza and the Stockyards District celebrating western heritage. The itinerary includes several free days offering time for independent exploration or optional extras such as jazz cruises or plantation visits.
