  • Middleton Place, Charleston, South Carolina, United States
    Two of America’s Founding Fathers called Middleton Place home: Henry Middleton, a president of the First Continental Congress, and son Arthur Middleton, a signer of the Declaration of Independence. Now a National Historic Landmark, it is home to America’s oldest landscaped gardens; a House Museum filled with Middleton possessions; Plantation Stable Yards with heritage breeds; and Eliza’s House, a freedman’s dwelling that serves as the centerpiece of Middleton Place’s interpretation of the lives of the enslaved people who built the property. Sit back and relax on a luxury, air-conditioned motorcoach as you enjoy a short video provided by the Middleton Place Foundation on your way to the plantation. Upon arrival to Middleton Place, you will have the opportunity to explore all of the historic sites on this 65-acre plantation such as the House Museum, Gardens, Plantation Chapel, Parterre, Plantation Stable Yards, and Eliza's House.  Enjoy a three-course Low Country Lunch at the Middleton Place Restaurant  during your visit. Inspired by the recipes and spirit of former resident chef and renowned southern chef Edna Lewis, The Middleton Place Restaurant offers traditional Low Country favorites made from fresh, local, organic ingredients, harvested from the on-site organic farm and gardens.

Going with Pineapple Tours gave us the best experience ever, Ben was really funny and gave us a lot of local knowledge. The tour includes being driven there and picked up after, and I'll say, the place was packed with people that had driven their on their own, no where to park at all. He gave us advice on other tours, and all around made the trip enjoyable. The lunch that was included was great, we got the Southern buffet, the veggies and collards were very good, as was the fried Chicken and the pecan pie was very yummy. I got a nice wineglass at the gift shop to remember the trip.
