  • Great Tour
    By Stephwright, 11/03/08
    Drayton Hall was a relaxing tour. It was nice to walk the grounds and just enjoy it without be nagged but a tour guide. Then when we did have our tour, he was very knowledgable. He talked somewhat fast, so it was hard to keep up on all the details. I would not take teenagers unless you know they would enjoy it. We didn't take our teenage boys, but other families had theirs and the kids looked bored. Great visit and money well spent.

  • I tell all my friends about Drayton Hall
    By Carol H, 06/29/07
    The most fascinating thing about it was that it was all history and no pretense. When I went it was not furnished at all. They were actually working on some moulding on the ceiling with scaffolding in the middle of the floor.

    The stories about the house and the Drayton family were captivating. You could sense the history when you walked ...

  • The Past comes alive
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/14/07
    The grounds are southernly beautiful, but it doesn't have all the flowers like other plantations. It is unfurnished, so there is not a lot to look at. Just being there and thinking about how many years it's been standing and all the things that had happened was interesting to me. I imagine living and working on the plantation and I bet the ...

  • Gorgeous
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/21/07
    I visited Drayton Hall about 15 years ago and still talk about it!
    Actually I hate history....and ,forgive me, American history is the worst (for me). Having said that, I had goosebumps when in that house. You can actually FEEL the age and history...and all the people and life...and dare I say it ...ghosts!

    I highly recommend a tour of this house.

  • Great for a group
    By Janna, 07/31/06
    We had a family group of 13 people, and Drayton Hall offered a little something for everyone. We got there a little before our tour started, so we began with the river walk. It was beautiful and a great place to take pictures. Then we sat in on a Connections program, which was okay (very informative but not experiential, so a little ...

  • Great Place

    Wonderful place, worth the money to see it. Look into getting the membership if you have a big family, it is only $35 and you can bring in 4 other people with you.

  • Breath taking experience
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/13/05
    The view at Drayton Hall was breath taking. Standing on the stairs looking toward the Ashely River was gorgious. The details of the architecture of the home was awesome. And this was on a rainy day. I can't wait to go back on a beautiful sunny day. It was wonderful to take the time to slow down and enjoy the sights.

  • Wonderful place to visit
    By STANLEY L, 09/18/05
    I loved the history that the Hall offered, you could almost here the voices of the past in the old mansion. Our guide was well informed about the history of Drayton Hall. I find it amazing that after a bitter war and the earthquake of 1886 the old mansion is still in great condition to be 267 years young.

  • Fantastic experience!
    By april, 08/07/05
    This was so much fun and so interesting. If I could live here I would. The house is breathtaking, as is the grounds. It was the middle of July and the heat was unbearable, but it was definitely worth it. It is not expensive in comparison to the other plantation tours. Our guide was exceptional, she was well versed in the history of the plantation and was able to answer all questions asked. Exactly what I expected of a plantation.
