3.Dew Drop Inn Guided Tour with Live Blues Show

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 5 reviews · 1h 30m · from $78

At the historic Dew Drop Inn, an English-speaking guide introduces the venue through artifacts, archival photos, and oral histories. Then enjoy a 90-minute program with a buffet lunch and a matinee show by Mikhala Iversen and the Gerald French Band. The Inn welcomed major Black artists and challenged segregation.

“Excellent event. It wasn’t what we expected. There was not much of a tour. We were given a talk in the museum which was very informative and interesting. It would have been nice to see at least one of the rooms in the hotel though. The lunch was yummy (as a foreign tourist I would have appreciated labels on the food so that I knew what I was eating). The show was phenomenal! We came in as a couple but we were sat on a large table with other people which was a bit disappointing.”
