Tour 3:
The Biltmore Estate
To visit Biltmore House, America’s largest privately owned home, is to cross the threshold into a world of hospitality, beauty, and luxury that has remained virtually unchanged for more than a century. This 250-room chateau is filled with priceless, carefully preserved artworks and furnishings. Walking paths wind through six distinctly different gardens as well as several woodland and meadow trails. At River Bend Farm Village, the estate’s agricultural heritage is brought to life featuring antique farm equipment, entertainment, animals, and a kitchen garden that’s the envy of any green thumb. At the winery, complimentary wine/grape juice tasting and great shopping adds to the allure of the nation’s most-visited winery. Tour will include optional private guided tours of the horticultural gardens and kitchen garden. Heavy walking. Long travel. Required fee $18.
