The tour company and Brian our driver were great. The tour inside the plantation was lack luster and. Rather boring. The plantation is beautiful. I wish I would have picked another plantation to visit. Loved crescent city tours. The swamp
Boat tour is a must! Don’t skip it! The extra money is worth it

The grounds are beautiful and the nearly 200 year old oak trees magnificent. Songbirds are perched in some of the trees and it seems idyllic. Yet, the slaves quarters are a stark contrast. When you see how slaves were forced to live compared to life for their masters in their splendid mansion, it might leave you with a loss for words. We can't erase history and can only endeavor to learn from it. It was a very worthwhile experience. Bryan was our bus driver and he was fun and informative. I highly recommend this tour.

Very disappointing. Albeit the front entrance way with all the oak trees is indeed beautiful, the rest of the exhibit is all redone. Hardly anything original in the main house and everything outside is redone.. Even if they charged half it would still be a tourist trap.
