Unique river museum on the banks of the might Mississippi. More

We did not do the inside museum, but we did do the river walk. This was so interesting. It does not cost anything to see this part but if you want to get over to the island you have to walk quite a ways or take the tram. Not sure how much it was but I think it was $5.00,... More

It's all about the river and is fun and informative and just gives you a good glimpse into what makes Memphis a unique city. Lots of outdoor exploring time for the kids in the river park as you trace the... More
