Great fun and history was amazing. Brought back the great memories of sounds from days gone by. Staff were very accommodating and knowledgeable.
If you are looking for a great memory adventure and unusual bragging rights that you have been to the US Kazoo builders factory, thus is the perfect stop for you.

We stopped here as we passed from Charleston to Savannah. We did this as entertainment for my 11 year old. However, our entire family, including 16 and 17 year old girls, all thoroughly enjoyed the tour!! We learned a ton about kazoos (didn’t know there was so much to know!), enjoyed making our own kazoos as part of the tour, and not to mention the guide was so nice! It’s definitely worth an hour of your time and I think your whole party will enjoy it! Like they say at the Kazoobie Museum, “you can’t be mad at an event with a kazoo!”

It was a very fun experience. We learned a lot of fun facts about kazoos. A must do in Beaufort for all ages.

I never knew the kazoo could be so interesting. Paul did a great job of explaining the history, the manufacturing process, the different types of kazoos, and demonstrating those while keeping it interesting and fun for all ages. All of the personnel we encountered were friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. It was definitely a one-of-a-kind experience that is worth the trip from Hilton Head.
Response from Host, Sep 2025

This is an amazing operation. Five people putting 8000 custom made kazoos together plus tours. We had fun and all went home with our own kazoo. The kids kazooed all the way home. An off beat fun thing to do with kids on a rainy day.
Kellen_P, May 2024
A fun little stop for families with younger children (2-6). We spent about an hour there and our kids walked away with several days' worth of noise making fun.
Judith_B, Apr 2024
If you've never been to the Kazoo factory, you should go. We were warmly greeted by our tour guide with a kazoo. At the end of the tour you get to assemble your own kazoo and learning a song.

We had a great time seeing all the different kazoos from years ago, learning how they are made, and then making our own. Our tour guide was full of energy and information. There was also a nice gift shop with lots of fun kazoos, etc. Amazing that all the plastic kazoos come from this business in Beaufort, SC1

Took my mother to this museum for her 88th birthday accompanied by my 25-year-old daughter and her boyfriend. We loved the family feeling of this business and the welcome we received. The talents shared and the behind-the-scenes tour were great. Making our won kazoo and sharing a quick tune together were icing on the 88th birthday cake! Thank you for offering this experience!
Debra_K, Mar 2024
Wonderful presentation and interesting tour, topped off by the making and playing of our very own Kazoos!
Quincy_B, Feb 2024
Great energy and history. Helpful staff. Friendly people and atmosphere. Let us make our own instruments
Cathleen_B, Jan 2024
Excellent tour guide. Her genuine love for kazoos and pride in the company was contagious. The collection of kazoos through the years and the history is presented very well. I love the American flag created with over 1000 kazoos! My visit was lots of fun.
Eric_G, Jul 2023
A lot of fun, great for all ages and the team puts on quite a show for the visitors. Our favorite was the video with the Kazoo people. Great gifts for kids and people you know that are still young at heart
Charmaine_T, Jul 2023
What a delightful and whimsical experience! Loved the films and especially the demonstration of all the various horns, whistles and sound effects equipment. Bought an expanded kazoo and trombone kazoo for musician friends.
Dave_D, Jun 2023
The young man did a great job demonstrating the different kazoos and whistles. The tour and history was interesting. Great job,!

Thank you for taking the time to say these kind words!!!
William_P, Apr 2023
It was a lot of fun. The grand kids loved it. Even the 16 year old. The history was interesting and the factory tour was prefect. Everything took 45 minutes and it was well worth it. We came from Hilton Head. It's not that far from Bluffton or Beaufort either. You walk away with your personalize Kazoo and there were very interesting items in the gift shop.
Response from Host, Apr 2023
We love this review, William, and are so glad y'all had a great visit with us!
Gary_H, Mar 2023
Learning about the history of the kazoo and having a person play all of the different types of kazoos.
