The Magnolia Plantation tour is a challenge to review as it consisted of a collection of components by various providers, of which Adventure Sightseeing only provided the round-trip ground transportation and a modicum of coordination once inside the Plantation grounds. For their part, Adventure Sightseeing delivered on what was promised, was on-time, and their driver was courteous and provided decent narration and instructions during the drive to the Plantation. Once inside the Plantation Grounds, the staff from Magnolia Plantation largely did the rest. Since we were visiting Charleston as a one-day port of call, this tour seemed to provide an easy way for our group of eight to visit a plantation at slightly less cost than a ship-sponsored shore excursion. Had we had more time and a smaller size group, we would have taken a more DIY approach to organizing this tour. I’m unsure if the cost would’ve been any different, but it would’ve made for a more personalized experience. As it were, we had 18 on our minibus (our group of 8 + 10 more), this at $96.30 per person. This along with the cost of round-trip ride shares from the port to the meeting point, as well as tips for the driver and various staff at the Plantation, put the cost of this large group tour up there. Once inside the Plantation, our large group was co-mingled with another large group. There was nothing personalized about the experience. Unlike other providers who only require a deposit at the time of booking, Adventure Sightseeing required full payment up front. As it were, we made the best of our tour, but I recommend exploring all of the options prior to making a commitment.
