Best of America's Music Cities

Nashville, Memphis, and New Orleans: Three unique cities bound by one common vein, music. This eight-day train tour explores this theme, from Nashville's beloved country music attractions to Memphis' rock n' roll landmarks and New Orleans' festive atmosphere that embraces live music from impromptu street performances to local clubs. We begin in Nashville, following in the footsteps of country music titans to places like the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Grand Ole Opry, and RCA Studio B. Artists ranging from Willie Nelson to Dolly Parton have made their name in these musical destinations. Their stories - as well as those of other artists past and present - capture your attention during your stay. From Nashville, we head south toward Memphis, where rock n' roll music was born. Tours of Graceland and Sun Studio are just two highlights of our time here. Amtrak's City of New Orleans whisks us deeper into the South to New Orleans. The lively atmosphere here is cultivated through jazz and blues music, and their notes carry us through the city to places like the French Quarter and Mardi Gras World. Follow the rhythm of this tour to discover the rich history and unexpected delights in each metropolis.
