Orchestra seating for The Notebook, plus Boone Hall Plantation, where the film was shot, and Charleston with the azaleas in bloom.
The Notebook as a stage musical does something the film could not, and seeing it a few miles from where the film was shot makes it land differently.
We are going to Boone Hall Plantation, which is that plantation, the one from the movie. You walk the Avenue of Oaks, tour Allie's summer home, see the gardens, take the wagon tour, and hear the Gullah presentation.
Then a guided horse-drawn carriage tour of historic Charleston, free time at the City Market and along King Street, and dinner before the show at the North Charleston Performing Arts Center in orchestra seating.
Early April is the right week for this. The azaleas are out, the gardens are at their best, and the Lowcountry does its thing. Bring tissues, and I mean that sincerely.
Walk the Avenue of Oaks, tour Allie's summer home, and enjoy the gardens, the wagon tour, and the Gullah presentation.
Experience the beloved love story on stage in orchestra seating, just miles from where the film was shot.
Carriage tour, City Market, King Street, Waterfront Park, and time to wander.
Azaleas in bloom, beautiful gardens, and the particular charm of the Lowcountry in early April.
Board the deluxe motorcoach in Brunswick County or the Greater Myrtle Beach area for the ride down. A guided horse-drawn carriage tour of historic Charleston, then free time at the City Market and along King Street. Dinner is included before The Notebook at the North Charleston Performing Arts Center, in orchestra seating.
Breakfast at the hotel, then out to Boone Hall Plantation. The Avenue of Oaks, a tour of Allie's summer home, the gardens in full spring bloom, a wagon tour, and a Gullah presentation. Then the coach north, with everyone quieter than they were on the way down.
We depart from Brunswick County and the Greater Myrtle Beach area. Tell me which pickup point is easiest for you and I will note it on your reservation.
Yes, that is the one. The Avenue of Oaks is exactly what you are picturing, and it is worth the trip on its own.
Yes. The Charleston show overnights are open to everyone. Bring him, bring a friend, bring a whole row.
Very little, and most of it is your choice. The coach gets us close, the theater and the carriage tour are both seated, and the hotel is comfortable. This is one of the easiest trips we run.
Whatever you like. Some people dress up for a night at the theater and some come as they are. Both are perfectly at home.
No, but sharing brings the cost down. I am glad to match you with a roommate from the group.
