We were picked up on time at our condo and taken on the tour. Everything was provided for. Our guide, Bambi, was knowledgeable, very friendly and wanting to tailor the experience to my family’s interests. She spent a long time with us ensuring that all of our questions were answered. We had a great day and would definitely book again if we are in the area. Highly recommend !!! Thank you Bambi for a great day! A++++

Jamestown was full of historical sites and our tour guide had a wealth of knowledge. Just be prepared to walk the 2 1/2 miles needed to see everything.
