What To Expect

Hop aboard an air-conditioned bus at the Charleston Visitor Center, where your journey begins. About a 30- to 45-minute drive will take you to 17th-century Boone Hall, where your tour begins.

Hop off your bus and head to the front porch, where a guide garbed in period costume will give you a half-hour presentation about the hall and its hundreds of years of history. Then listen to a presentation about the lives of enslaved people who once lived at the plantation, as well as about the culture of the Gullah people, the descendants of enslaved Africans who live in this part of the country.

Wrap up your tour with a visit to the Boone Hall rose garden, where you can see bushes that are more than a century old, before getting back on your bus and returning to Charleston.
