Deep South - the story of the Blues and music of America If you're into music (especially The Blues) and want to understand where it all started and developed, this is the trip for you. Starting with the background of the Civil Rights movement and visiting iconic sites such as the bridge at Selma and the museums in Atlanta and Birmingham, we followed the development of the Blues from New Orleans through Clarksdale, Memphis and finally Nashville. We experienced a wide range of live music - gospel, blues, jazz, country, rockabilly, bluegrass etc and saw the places where it all began. It was a truly entertaining and memorable trip from the beginning to the end made even more special by our awesome guide, Jay.
We thoroughly enjoyed our Orca Trip hosted by Grace and Rob on behalf of the tour operator. We found both guides to be knowledgeable and personable. We especially appreciated Grace's commentary during our hike through the woods where she encouraged us to hike in silence for a bit to be mindful of the forest and to meditate while walking along. Great feeling of connectedness to our natural surroundings.
Josh was wonderful , full of knowledge and understanding what we wanted to see and experience and what we will be enjoying for the next two days in Philly. Highly recc his services and ability to offer a great experience of history and architecture and direction.
