We booked the Colonial History Tour through the Williamsburg Lodge. The tour guide arrived promptly, dressed in historical clothing. He was a wonderful guide, full of historical facts about the town, and descriptions of many terms and phrases that originated during 17th and 18th century. We were supposed to be with a larger group but only my wife and I were available for the tour so we really had the guide all to ourselves. This was a fantastic educational experience.

Tom was super knowledgeable! Great info! Lots of walking and standing so might not be great for the littles, but I thought it was awesome! Definitely get the hot apple cider if you get a chance!
