90 minutes should be plenty of time. The tour was about 30 minutes, and the grounds are rather small. So the additional hour would allow for some browsing in their little shop, a peek into the first floor of the home and the slave cabins, some photos of the beautiful live oaks, and a potty break. The slave cemetery (across the street) has not been marked and uncovered yet, so there's not much to see. I would call ahead to see if you can get your own tour guide. Also, our guide (Olivia) recommended Gillie's Soul Food on Folly Rd. as a good place to get some Southern comfort food. Enjoy your visit!
