plantation tour
Historic farm visit
A plantation tour is a guided visit to a historic estate where enslaved people once labored, typically in the American South.
These tours vary widely in focus—some emphasize antebellum architecture and romanticized hospitality, while others center the lives and resistance of enslaved people.
The term often surfaces in debates about how such sites handle their history: The plantation tour barely mentioned slavery.
