Where to Buy Tickets
Perhaps the easiest way to purchase tickets to ride is through the Memphis Hop website directly. However, if you're already on foot, you can get them in person at their brick-and-mortar location, 664 Marshall Ave, or the Ticket Booth next to Hard Rock Cafe (2nd & Beale Street). Tickets are valid for 24 hours after purchase.
Adult tickets (13 and up) are $30, and youth tickets (12 and under) are $20. Your ticket allows you a pass to ride all day to as many destinations as you'd like. According to their ticket purchasing policy, "Customers will receive a full refund with 24 hours notice of cancellation. Customers will also receive a full refund in case of operator cancellation due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances. Contact us by phone to cancel or inquire about a cancellation. No-shows will be charged the full price." There is also a small service fee per ticket when using the online platform.
