Hey .. I am an Elvis fan too, but have never been. However, there is going to be a big concert there next year as it will be the 30th Anniversary of his death (wow!). The original band members will be playing with Elvis on a big screen in the background singing along .. I bet for any real Elvis fan this would be an awesome experience .. Elvis week runs every year in Memphis on the Anniversary of his Death ..

Enjoy and let us know how it goes xxx

Since you're a big Elvis fan, it is worth going once. The furnishings are a real time warp since everything is as Elvis had it. You'll be surprised at how much of the house you're able to tour, plus see his trophy collection and outfits in another building. The pink Cadillac Elvis bought for his mother is still parked under the carport. Grave sites are nearby.
I found it curious to see the real thing after having seen pictures only through the previous years. And not only will you see the front gate, but then be able to turn around and see everything else in real life. The tour cost was $$$, but ok, was memorable, too.
Go.

Yes. If you love Elvis, it is worth the trip. The Jungle Room is great. Also, outside you can see what all the fans have left him. If you go, take the audio tour. It is hilarious and entertaining. The house is not large by modern standards, but every room is different and you get a real flavor for what Elvis preferred.

went in July-its beautiful. If you're an Elvis fan-definately go.You can almost picture the people in the rooms, Elvis in the costumes. The Jungle room is one of my favorites, I can just imagine being there with him and his crew jamming and having fun. I thought more of the positive sides rather than the tragic. Not to mention the cars. We took lots of pictures. Great for all generations but especially those growing up in the 60s and can remember.

If you like Elvis then I guess it is worth seeing. However, I was not impressed, there is not much to see except the house and Lisa's plane.
