Hi Julia, really interested in this new tour for 2015 but its only 8 days long. However, I noticed that the flight is into and out of Chicago and wondered if I could add on a few days before or after the trip. Happy to arrange my own accommodation in Chicago, but would it be possible to alter the day of the flight? I know that for Aus and NZ tours there is some flexibility, would this be possible for this trip too?

Katy,

Have you looked at Americas Heart & Soul Holiday it starts in Chicago (3 nights), then two nights in St Louis another two in Memphis before finishing with 3 nights in New Orleans.

I know it doesn't include Nashville but it definately is 4 excellent music cities if thats what you like.

I'm doing it in Nov this year and through this forum we seem to have a number of us going with the intention of visiting some music clubs.

Hi Mick, was really drawn to the combination of Memphis and Nashville but wanted a bit more. Had spotted the Chicago to New Orleans trip and it does look excellent, will be interested to see a review when someone's been - I was thinking of booking for November but don't know if I'll be able to do it then. Am currently booked to do the Canyons and LBH trip next month (after being cancelled last October when the US parks shutdown).

The combination of the new brochure a few weeks ago and the Discovery magazine received today - far too many options its difficult to decide what to pick. (Also want to go on many of the European trips and to Vietnam!)

Katy,

You'll love the Canyons some amazing sites. I must have been on the trip in front of you because we suffered withthe government shutdown for the 2nd week of our holiday. Missed Bryce & Zion but our tour manger did an amazing job finding alternatives. We visited so fantastic State Parks which were still open.

Its very hectic but well worth the early mornings to see as much as you do. Great group of people had some good laughs.

Agree about Memphis & Nashville been together is very appealing but like you I'm looking for longer holidays when i travel over the pond.

Thanks Julia, I did notice that both ways the flights were via Chicago which is why I raised this. When I have a better idea of when I can go next year I will speak to one of the advisers.

Katy

Hi Katy,

The Sights & Sounds of the South flies into Nashville and out of Memphis but I understand if you are interested in visiting Chicago, you can speak to one of our specialist sales team members who can look at creating a tailor-made add-on depending on the dates of travel.

I would strongly advise that you speak to one of our holiday advisors who would be able to have a more in depth conversation with you about what you would like to do and the options available.

Kindest regards

Julia
