    Beautiful !

    Tucker was gracious and knowledgeable for our tour today! It was just my husband and me on the tour which was an unexpected extra bonus. This tour was the cherry on top of all the other house tours we went on this week.

    Nice tour

    They give an average tour of an historic home. Our docent, however, was not able to answer several rather simple questions. There are no restrooms for paying customers.

    Amazing things to see in this wealthy household

    Concerned that our very young guide wouldn't know much about history, we were very pleasantly surprised that she answered every question fully and in detail. The upright piano, the beautiful furnishings and understanding the role of the cotton "factor" made this tour a key in...More

    The entrance to the home alone had about 15 steps (we entered with our tour through the back). To tour the second floor is another 15-18 steps. I would not recommend taking the tour if you can't do more than 5 steps.

    Recommendation on October Itienary (12 Replies)
    First time to South Carolina. Enjoy history, tours, good food. We intend to cover a lot in a day, so full days are okay with us, but also do not want to be totally scheduled and allow time for lunches & dinners. Would like suggestions on an itinerary. In our 50’s, active, traveling end of October, beaches aren’t that important to us considering the time of year. This itinerary has us doing Beaufort, Savannah, possibly Tybee Island & Charleston. I'm beginning to wonder if we should just...More

    The day 5 itinerary is much too packed! The two plantations are on the southwest side of Charleston, requiring a 30 minute drive out of and back into the Historic District. Once there, Middleton Place easily takes several hours, especially is you have lunch at the lovely restaurant on the grounds. Then, Drayton Hall is another couple of hours. Patriots Point is on the other (north east) side of the Charleston peninsula and, again, takes multiple hours to explore. Ft Sumter requires a boat...More

    There are folks here who know a lot more than me, just a few thoughts... It's about an hour round-trip drive to Tybee from Savannah. I'd allow at least an hour for the lighthouse; there's an old lighthouse keeper cabin, displays, and you can climb to the lighthouse top if you want (I'm about 60 and made it). Nearby Fort Pulaski is also very interesting. In Charleston I found the Aiken-Rhett House Museum extremely interesting (a wealthy person's house with slave quarters), and also...More

    Pioneers in Preservation Pass for Historic Home Tours (1 Reply)
    We are looking at purchasing this pass that gets us in the Juliette Low Birthplace, Andrew Low House and the Davenport House. I am, however, worried a little about time---do you have to visit all 3 houses on the same day or could we do one or 2 on one day then the remaining ones the next day? Thank you!

    The pass may be used over several days. The pass allows you to vist each house only one time. The attendent at the house will stamp the pass for that house . Each tour lasts about 30 minutes. We found it to be worth while. The homes and family stories are different enough to warrant visiting each. The pass is like getting the third home free.
