The splendor and charm of the Old South is here waiting to be seen. Don't skip this plantation tour if you are here. The gardens are beautiful and the nature tram is a nice touch to tour the wildlife areas. The mansion is a beautiful example of country life back before the "War of Northern Aggression". You will enjoy this... More

We toured the gardens took the nature tram, had a bite of lunch then did the swamp garden. I would not recommend doing the tram and then walk the swamp tour, very much the same thing. Plus no maps and tiring. I wish we would have done the cabin tour instead. The gardens would be really nice when either the... More

As struggling graduate students, my fiance tried to be really picky with what we saw when on our weekend getaway to Charleston. We chose to try Magnolia for it's great reviews and relatively descent price. We chose to also take the tram tour which ended up being really nice and a great way to see all the grounds in a... More

Walk around the many paths, some along the river to see a quiet plantation filled with greenery and flowers. Try to come in late March through April to see the showy azaleas. There are other things to do here, but I always go to see the flowers.

Always good visit when we go here we love the place and the animals, did a boat tour it was great the captain was great, although I forgot his name he was great! Beautiful place full of history!

We spent an afternoon here on a Friday. There is a fee for each attraction you want to do which you could easily spend almost 70.00 per person. We did the Nature boat and From Slavery to Freedom tour. Slavery to Freedom Tour-45 minutes long. We got onto a shuttle to where the slave houses were located. We got about... More

We ended up going back a second day to see more of the gardens. We also did the boat tour on our second visit. Didn't get to see much wildlife because the guide told us that it wasn't warm enough for Alligators to sun themselves. If you can plan to spend the entire day there. It can be expensive if... More

We spent a few hours here and had a good time. It did generally seem to be kind of an older clientele (off the tour buses) but we saw a few younger couples or families. Petting zoo was neat with a huge variety of animals, including a few very friendly goats and deer. We did the tram tour which brought... More

We did not expect to spend all afternoon here, but after a quick lunch on site, we toured the house, took the nature tour, and finally walked the beautiful gardens. By this time we knew the history of the plantation so the gardens had more meaning. And suddenly the afternoon was over. We were happy with the two additional tours... More
