Take time to listen to the Gullah Culture Speaker

My mom and I loved our visit, we especially loved the speaker who talked about the Gullah and slave culture on the plantation. It was very informative and she was very passionate about her culture. This was no additional charge and something all our young...More

I’m a huge North & South fan, so I was really excited for this tour. When touring the mansion, you only get to see two rooms. You had to sign up for any guided tours of the estate, which had wait times of an hour....More

Despite the extreme heat, my husband and I truly enjoyed our tour of the Boone Hall Plantation. There are a variety of tours, one on a hayride of the grounds, the other is in the "mansion". And there is a play and a self guided...More

Worth The trip

Lots of history, fun wagon ride around the plantation. The driveway is amazing with huge oak trees lining. The gardens were beautiful and house tour was interesting.

Be sure to go to the Gullah Presentation

It's an interesting old plantation home, with loads of history. I found the house tour a little dry, but there's plenty of room to wander about the grounds. The Gullah presentation was over the top! Don't miss it!

Overly Expensive

While it was nice to see a working plantation, the price was really expensive. Also, the tours were short and not a lot of information was given. Good for people interested in this;however, the price almost ruined the experience.

Very interesting place

Kinda disappointed to only get to see 3 rooms of the house. The live oak tree lined Avenue and boat house are amazing. It is nice but could have been better.

This is the oldest and longest working plantation in America. You will learn about the plantation owner, slavery and the end of slavery, as we know it today. In fact you will learn that slavery is still alive at many places in the world. That...More

HI, I'd like to know, is Ed Hansen, mentioned in the Tripadvisor comment, a Boone hall guide or is he a private guide who accompanies tours from Charleston? Thanks, Astrid

Yes, they have a little café. We only got drinks. Didn't seem like a full menu.

Do you have to buy tickets in advance or is it ok to just show up and buy a ticket? I was hoping to just show up at our leisure.

You can just show up and buy them there or you can purchase them ahead of time. I purchased mine at the Visitor's Centre prior to going there when I bought my city tour there.
