The Deep South is like nowhere else in the USA. It is a land of cotton, molasses and tobacco; antebellum mansions and shotgun shacks; Civil War battlefields and Civil Rights conflicts; oak trees draped in Spanish moss and bayous brimming with crawfish; sun-drenched beaches, virgin forests and mountains of Appalachia.
Driving through the Deep South could not be a more hospitable experience. There is such a relaxed feel here. Locals are only too pleased to help out whether it is giving directions or serving some of those sumptuous Southern specialties. As you drive be sure to switch on the radio and listen to blues, jazz, country, rock'n'roll and soul that are synonymous with the Deep South.

Land of the Kings Vacation Holiday
Tennessee & Mississippi
10 Days & 9 Nights
For millions around the world Memphis and Mississippi first and foremost mean music. The Blues were born in the Mississippi Delta combining traditional African rhythms with the soulful cries of the sharecroppers as they toiled in the scorched fields. If Mississippi was the birthplace of the Blues, Memphis became home to the music as aspiring musicians headed north on Highway 61 to perform their music on Beale Street. One of them traded his first name Riley for "The Beale Street Blues Boy" and today B.B. King still has a club on the lively street, which is now the premier entertainment district of the entire South.
