The tour was informative, but a little lackluster. Our guide seemed more interested in going home (it was the last tour of the day) than giving us a good experience. You cannot take pictures in the house more

We showed up at about 3:45 on a Sunday afternoon and were told the next available tour was at 4:30 so we roamed around for a little bit. We then waited in the old slave quarters for a few minutes for the start of the house. The house itself is interesting in regard to the regency style. While our guide... more

The home is very beautiful and very interesting. We went at a busy time and our group was divided into two. The tour guides were a younger and older woman. We were hoping not to get the older one, but unfortunately we did. We were thinking this is going to be boring, but we were VERY SURPRISED. She was excellent.... more

This house was interesting to see but the tour guide was not as interesting. I would recommend it if you want to see the inside of one of these old homes. Our group had too many people, so not everyone could squeeze into the rooms at the same time. more

This house was very nice, old Regency style which I am a fan of. The tour wasn't the best, & it was very museum style, look no touch. I kind of started ignoring the guide by the end, just to take in more of the details of the house. If you like old style architecture, especially the old Regency style,... more

As almost all tour guides seemed to be telling us, the Owens-Thomas house is the house tour that most people will enjoy visiting. This was definitely the case for us. Colin was our guide. He seems a little uncomfortable being in front of a group (can't blame him, I hate public speaking and end up shaking like a leaf). Also,... more
