Asheville-Biltmore Estate Overnight

At our first stop in Asheville, visit the Thomas Wolfe Memorial State Historic Site, portraying the early 20th-century atmosphere brought so vividly to life in his first novel, "Look Homeward, Angel." Then kick off your holiday season with both daylight and evening candlelight tours at the Biltmore Estate, viewing the 20th-century mansion hideaway in the Southern Appalachians with all its Christmas finery and festivity, including choirs and live musicians. As we depart, see Biltmore's majestic 55-foot Norway Spruce aglow with 45,000 lights and hundreds of luminaries. The next day, enjoy Antler Hill Village, the Winery, and a tour of the historic grounds of Biltmore as designed by Frederick Law Olmsted for the Vanderbilt family.
