Joslyn Castle & Gardens

"It's an interesting place but I was not clear that this was a tour and that you can't just go in and look around. It probably would have only taken about 30 minutes to look around but the tour is 2 hours which I felt was too long. Interesting history but wish that the tour was quicker and that they just gave you a pamphlet with some of the history so that they didn't talk in the beginning for 30 minutes about the history of the place."

"We came here over the weekend and took the tour. It was very informative, and the house was immaculate. The tour is very detailed, and you get to learn about the rich history the home has. The Joslyn family was ahead of their time. We started the tour with a video telling some of the history and went on to explore the home. It was a really cool experience, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't been or is just passing through the area. Make sure you're 15 minutes early! All in all it was a spectacular experience."

"An enchanting house with an interesting story behind it about one of the major families of Omaha. The tour starts with a quick informative video and then a fairly detailed walking tour of the home. We will definitely be back during the summer months to see the landscaping in full bloom. Our guide, Gary, was very knowledgeable and considerate of everyone on the tour needs."

"We were beyond thoroughly impressed not only with the castle and preservation of the history but with the tour itself and the information provided!!! A stunning location all around from the castle to the outbuildings to the gardens and grounds!!! Don't pass on the opportunity of a visit if given the chance!!!"

"Beautiful and well maintained. Show up at the times of tours. I would highly recommend, taking some time to walk the grounds and see the stable, which has a shop. The size and design is consistent throughout the property with ramparts being used at the entrance as you drive in. There is a lot to see and the tour can take a couple of hours. There are a lot of nice local restaurants near by, so make this a day trip and enjoy."
