Back to Mud Island River Park
We went to Mud Island last weekend, did the monorail (probably would've been better to walk the bridge) We had to wait in the monorail car, for about 15 minutes before it started, which has no air, and the workers would not let us get off. Telling us if we were going to ride it we had to wait inside. When another couple told them it was too hot to wait inside the worker told them that she had been sitting in the heat for 8 hours. (But she's getting paid to sit there, right? And she was sitting outside where the wind was blowing, not inside where there was no circulation)

the museum was great but everything else boring it has not been kept up in fact the side walk is missing bricks and they could have really used more things out side we never understood what the point is

When we visited Mud island it was a hot day, the tour of kindergrten- 5th grade really enjoyed walking and playing in the water & purchasing treats from the concession stand after going thru the museum. The tour was interesting and walking back over was good excercise.

it was nice to leisurely walk around the island and see how the Mississippi River runs thru the U.S. took the pedestrian walkway over even though the tram runs underneath the walkway. quiet spot to enjoy an afternoon. swings set up along the river. would have liked to stayed longer but had to catch a plane. small cafe there to grab simple bite to eat. would definitely go back if I should return to Memphis.

Oh, WOW!! We almost didn't go to this attractions because we were so tired and ready to drive back home, but we stopped. It is so neat. It was my favorite place in Memphis. We did not visit the museum, just the park. It is a great place to have a picnic. The sight are amazing. You can see barges on the Mississippi River. The bridge that connects Arkansas and Tennessee and so much more from this location. The miniture Mississippi River model opens up to this neat spot where you can ride paddle boats or wade in this fountain. My kids had so much fun. There is alot of shady places to just sit and relax. So, can I move it to my hometown?

I loved Mud Island!!! I went to Memphis for Graceland, but when I heard about this place I thought that I would give it a try and I thought it was great! I have been back to Memphis 4 times and it was great every time! The museum is awesome and I loved walking "in the Mississippi River"!! I thought the tram ride was fabulous. I know that the movie "The FIRM" starring Tom Cruise was filmed there and as soon as I got home, I watched it. I thought it was cool, because on the movie, he rides the tram on Mud Island! I will go back a a million times! It is great fun for the whole family!
