- AEllen· June 5th, 2025Everything was excellent including lodging, included meals and things to do. Walking tour of New Orleans was my favorite.Show moreTrip date: March 2025Review collected by Collette
- AGwendolyn· June 5th, 2025I enjoyed the two recording studios we had and tours of and the Elvis Pressley and Tina Turner stops. The Grand Ole Opry (old and new) were good. The flight from Sacramento to New Orleans should have been direct. There was too much driving on the bus between points of interest. We were required to get up early each day. It would have been nice to spend two nights at each hotel - there was much packing and unpacking. There was a lot of standing and walking when we were off the bus. We had a terrific bus driver but a so-so tour guide.Show moreTrip date: March 2025Review collected by Collette

- ASandra· June 5th, 2025This was a great trip! I especially loved the Civil Rights portion that gave us a closer look at this important time in our history. Cutting a record at RCA Records with the group was a fun extra too.Show moreTrip date: April 2025Review collected by Collette
- AMarsha· June 5th, 2025The tour was good. I know that the tour was a little fast paced so we got to see a lot, but I would have liked to have spent a little more time in New Orleans. I may go back there and spend a week just in New Orleans. Overall, the accommodations were very nice. The only complaint I have is that at the Sheraton in New Orleans. The bathtub was slanted and very slick. Not very amenable to an old person taking a shower. I especially liked the Inn at Ole Miss. Very charming and quiet. Some of the issues I had were just with my own ability to get around and own endurance level. The tour guide Hadee and the tour bus driver Derrick Fairley were absolutely wonderful. So very, very attentive, friendly and entertaining. Of the places we went I believe Nashville was my favorite because I got to see the Grand Ole Opry and the historic Rymon auditorium!!! What a party town!! My only complaints are with booking air travel. When I originally booked the trip I had requested nonstop flights both to New Orleans and coming back from Nashville. At the time of booking, I was unable to get nonstop flights myself online so that's why I called to speak to someone at Colette. The agent and I spoke to had difficulty booking the nonstop flight at the beginning, but said she had successfully done so. However, when I received my receipt and itinerary, it showed that I had layovers both going and coming back. I should have pitched a big fit at that time because I had paid for nonstop. I ended up having to cancel that trip and reschedule. I once again got the layovers both to New Orleans and coming back from Nashville. Due to an issue with the American Airlines flight, I ended up being at the airport for 11 hours and getting rescheduled onto a United airline flight that was nonstop. Coming back from Nashville I was so tired the day before I knew that I could not handle going one and a half hours from Nashville to Charlotte and then sitting in an airport for three more hours and taking a 3 1/2 hour flight from Charlotte to Denver. So I rescheduled with United on my own. At great cost I might add. Again, I will say that the airline booking through Colette needs a lot of work. They don't include the cost of the airline when you get your receipt and itinerary. They put that is to be determined even though they've already charged you. I think that is a total rip off by Colette. If they can't get nonstop flights then they should hold off on charging you for any flights until something is available and they can book you.Show moreTrip date: April 2025Review collected by Collette
- AGregory· June 5th, 2025Collette runs you hard, but you see a lot of places and get your money's worth. I would like to have seen the Blues Museum in Clarksdale, MS, and the Stax Museum in Memphis. An additional day or two would optimize the arrangement for me. One more night in NOLA, and one in MS or Memphis. Haydee the guide was organized but not bossy, just the right personality to keep the multitude moving. Sun, RCA Studio B, Ryman and Opry were all "memorable favorites". I will not rank them. I am agile for age 73, but it is nice that my many fellow guests with canes or rollaters were able to participate. I think this was a BUCKET project for many of us. It was my retirement gift to myself !Show moreTrip date: April 2025Review collected by Collette
