Memphis, Tennessee

• Phone: (901)410-3967
• Website: wyndhamhotels.com 
• Okay this is why I cancelled this hotel stay; it had no elevators. I know I know that very bougie of me to say, but at the time I wasn't in the best of health to carry my luggage a flight of stairs and on top of that I had confirmation for a handicap room which they had cancelled on me and told me that all they had left was on the 2nd floor. The lovely *hardcore sarcasm here* woman was very rude to me and made it worse for herself my being even worse to my mother. (sorry but no one messes with my mama). And at the time it said free hot breakfast in the morning which we found out when trying to check in they don't server hot breakfast meals and the front door was to remain locked. Granted you literally are right across the street from Elvis's home of Graceland, but on top of it you're near the ghetto of Memphis and it truly sadness me with how much tourist come to Memphis for Graceland or to see the stomping grounds of Elvis that nothing gets done to upkeep the town.

• Price: $25 per person
• Story time: Why I'm posting this is because I don't want folks experiencing what I did and why I'm say scam-ish. Okay so I found the Wildlife self-guided tour through TripAdvisor. It took us about 10 to 15 minutes to find this place, why because where it is located is at someone's home that they use as an Air B&B. The only way to get a hold of them is via call or text to let them know you are there on the property. Then when and if they show up, they go into the home take out the golf cart and tell you to follow the little trail that goes around their property. You do see a lot of Nature but no wildlife. Now it would have been cooler if they did props like a dinosaur theme thing in the spring/summer, Halloween theme during October, Turkey tort thing during November and Christmas village during Christmas and just cover the sides with the golf covers that they have golf carts. But I honestly think this was just had a wild hair up his butt and had a crazy idea for his Air B&B and went with it. But honestly guys this isn't worth it until he actually did something with the trail. Plus, the actual it took around the trail was at max 15 minutes, but on TripAdvisor if they haven't taken it down said 30 mins to an hour. We were truly lucky we even got hold of the guy, because he was leaving out of town, and this was something his wife was supposed to take care of while he was on business trips. But staff first guys and watch out for scams.
