The grounds are beautiful, the staff was incredibly nice, the welcome center is superb. However, Drayton Hall is a big snooze. There isn’t a stick of furniture in the house, nothing to look at but big empty rooms. You’re left to “imagine” what things looked like. There are a couple of gravel plots where buildings used to be. It’s out by Middleton Place and Magnolia Plantation, so I guess you could stop by, but…
Nice short tour

It was a great plantation to visit. Come early or late evening it was very hot. You can go into basement and 1st floor only. I wish you could view 2nd floor. It would be nice if they had pictures that showed what house looked like in each room. Beautiful land that takes you to the river.

DrYdon Hall was not worth the money. No gardens, no house tour, not going back. It was a wast of time. Very disappointing. Middleton Place is absolutely worth the time and money.
Response from Host , Jul 2021
I am sorry to hear that you did not find value in your visit. Our new, award-winning audio tour is available to all guests and is included in our all-inclusive admission price. In addition to our audio tour, we have trained interpreters stationed in the house
to answer questions and provide additional information for guests. We also offer Interpreter Led House
Tours daily at 9am. Tickets for this tour can be purchased through our website.

It was rather disappointing, when compared to other plantations. The grounds are beautiful. It would have been nice to see the rest of the house.
Response from Host , Oct 2020
Thank you for taking the time to review Drayton Hall. I am sorry that you were disappointed in your visit. We will be reopening the cellar in the near future with a newly released audio tour and are reopening our galleries this week. We would love to invite you back to visit again when these spaces are reopened.
Important property

The property was interesting, beautiful and educational. The gift shop staff was nice. The cafe gal told us she was baking biscuits and an hour later, she still had not. The tour guide was not friendly at all and acted like he didn’t know he was giving a lecture in ten minutes as scheduled. All in all, the property is very important but the staff seemed distracted and annoyed by our presence
A delightful day learning important history.

Myself and 3 friends enjoyed the docent-led tour of Drayton Hall and the Port to Plantation lecture and slide show. We were impressed with our docent - a young history grad who knew her material and delivered it in a polished yet friendly manner. The slide lecturer was learned and did not shrink from telling the story of slavery in all its profit-mongering detail. Everyone should hear it.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
