I spent a few hours here and really enjoyed how peaceful the grounds were. I watched the movie (I was not into it at first, but am glad I did). I went towards the end of the day so I was able to get a "private" tour. The guides were great and very interactive. Ispent a short time walking the... more

We spent 2+ hours here exploring the house and grounds. We saw the film, browsed the shop, and went through the house with guides who seemed enthusiastic and knowledgeable about their subject in particular and about U.S. history in general. Tickets were $17.00 per person. AAA members show your card and perhaps get a discounted price. One of the guides... more

A wonderfully educational and fun experience! Beautiful gardens and tree-lined pathways. The historians were extremely knowledgeable and enthusiatic. An area elementary school had their children dressed up in period costumes and they greeted us at the exhibits. They were adorable and full of great information too! We ended up spending more time than we expected there. It was worth the... more

It is well worth the drive out of Nashville to see The Hermitage. Give yourself plenty of time to tour the house and explore the grounds. The museum was filled with interesting items including the ensembles worn by the Jacksons to a ball in New Orleans. The tour guides for the house were great and very informative. It was interesting... more

My husband and I just returned from a wonderful visit to the Heritage. The grounds are beautiful and wide open. There are audio guides which are marvelous and there was no extra charge. There was also a video to watch. The employees were knowledgeable and dressed in period clothing. I would say you don't need to take the horse carriage... more

We had planned on just making a quick visit while traveling through on the interstate, but ended up spending almost three hours here and finding it well worth the time and money. The audio tour was extremely well-done, with a lot of information, well-presented and with options for numerous in-depth commentaries by archaeologists. The orientation film was so-so, emphasizing Jackson's... more

I visited this past weekend the Hermitage. On first arrival, I wasn’t expecting to see very historic grounds. It all seemed more modern with a paved parking lot, as I couldn’t see the home or any other historic interests. I was worried it was just going to be a house and that was it, but I was wrong. There is... more

Great place to visit-like the other posters mentioned. I loved learning about Andrew Jackson-who knew he was so interesting. The house has such beautiful murals and worth taking a closer look. Our tour guide was amazing in the main house and gave us additional information when asked. So ask questions they are excited to share! more

Well worth the trip -- interesting and a great time more
