We loved it! - Great driver who gave us lots of information on the trip to Middleton Place. The tour of the house and gardens was beautiful, and I loved seeing all of the farm animals roaming the grounds. Eliza’s House was very moving. The lunch was delicious and served in a beautiful setting. I highly recommend this tour.

Recommend Tour - We would really recommend better signage at Middleton Plantation. Many confused people in the gardens. We missed the garden talk because we couldn’t find it soon enough. Lunch was very good. House tour good. We recommend an introductory video to give a better understanding of what you will see and tie it together. There was a video in the gift shop that could be used partially or as a whole. The transport service did a great job! We are glad we went.

Gardens are gorgeous even... - Gardens are gorgeous even in the fall. Docents are enthusiastic and knowledgeable. House tour was above expectations. And, the meal, was yummy southern food. Minor concern was the lack of clarity of presentation locations although printed schedule was helpful.

Great property, needs better map instructions and labels. - Beautiful property, very poor signage in gardens or when trying to find restaurant or house museum. Several employees not involving those properties were essential in getting around. Lunch was more than expected with great service. Distributed maps need redesign and simplification.
