Asheville and Charlottesville
We will be in Asheville on the last weekend of September to visit Biltmore ...and in Charlottesville on the 3rd and fourth of October. What croud do we have to expect.We're thinking about ordering and reserving the tour for Monticello. Will that be advisable. It's called the President's pass at 26 $ per person.Including Michie tavern and Ash lawn.Paul

Paul, did you check this website for Biltmore Estate?

To avoid crowds I suggest you get to the gate when is open at 8:30. First go to tour the chateau, then gardens. We always have a great lunch in Bistro at the winery. If you get tired of all activities you may return the next day for only $10.00. Before you are ready to leave go the the ticket booth and extend your visit by paying only $10.00 for the next full day. Of course you won't have to spend all day but there is a lot to do.
