Poplar Forest is open to the public 7 days a week from mid-January until December 30th except Easter Sunday, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day.
Docent guided tours are offered at 10:30 a.m., 12:00 p.m., 1:00 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. based on docent availability. Please note: we can not guarantee a docent will be available for a guided tour. You may call the Museum Shop at 434-534-8120 to secure a spot on a guided tour if a docent is available. If no docent is available, you can tour the house using the Poplar Forest app which features a full-length house tour (available on the Apple Store and the Google Play Store.) We apologize for any inconvenience. If you would like to guarantee a tour docent (if one is not available), you may book a private tour more than 24 hours in advance. More information can be found here.
