Amazing guide who gave us facts at about a mile a minute. Interesting house that you get to go into every room and see how it was constructed. Unique history in that you get to hear about Spanish vs French vs American laws and how that impacted this plantation. I highly recommend.

The view, introduction, history, the staff best customer service. Good for kids and adults. Sad stories that describe the beginning of our nation and how such still in our days are a strong feeling for what happen then. And we are just talking about abolition less than 200 years or segregation less than 60 years.
