An American South Road Trip: Arkansas, Mississippi & Tennessee with Dave Hoerlein
Enjoy our live Monday Night Travel party with this video recorded on February 23, 2026.
Overseas travel is great, but equally rich cultural experiences can be found in our own backyard. Join longtime Rick Steves guide and mapmaker Dave Hoerlein for a stateside tour bursting with memorable sights, delicious food, and Southern hospitality. We kick it off in Kansas City with a world-class WWI museum and tasty barbecue, before heading to Arkansas to meet Rosie the Riveter at the Crystal Bridges Museum. In Memphis, we discover a diverse melody of Beale Street blues, the sobering National Civil Rights Museum, and Elvis' Graceland. Our road trip ends in leafy Oxford, Mississippi, where we celebrate with legendary tailgating and fall football at Ole Miss.
