Tips for Visiting the Biltmore Estate:
What is the single most important tip for estate visitors? Take your time. Guests continually tell us that they are amazed by the size of the estate and all the things to see and do. So allow enough time to take it all in.

Plan to arrive as early in the morning as possible. With so much to do on the estate every day, if you start bright and early, you should have enough time to visit Biltmore House, gardens, winery, and Historic Horse Barn. Allow time for rests, refreshments, meals, and shopping.

When you come, wear your most comfortable walking shoes, and dress in layers so you can adapt to our changeable mountain weather. Remember, the estate is enormous, and some of the venues several miles apart, so you will definitely need a car to get around. Parking is plentiful and free.

Above all, have a great time. Our guests always do.
