Частная пешеходная экскурсия по рождественским украшениям в колониальном Вильямсбурге

Обзор
This exclusive, private tour (only your group) highlights Colonial Williamsburg's Christmas traditions and picturesque holiday decorations of our historical area. This tour provides insight about the materials, crafts people, construction and design of the wreaths and garlands adorning the exterior of most 18th Century buildings, exhibits and private homes and different judging categories. We meet at The Williamsburg Inn to admire the decorations and begin our journey to the Duke of Gloucester. We'll discuss how holidays were celebrated in 17th and 18th Centuries here in Virginia including plantations, our Capital cities and during the Revolutionary War (e.g., Continental Army). Holiday biscuits by African descendants or traditional gingerbread cookies are offered. If before 7PM, we offer hot beverages.

Note: Grand Illuminations are the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Saturdays of December (7pm fireworks). The Yule Log lightings are the first, second and third Fridays of December.

This tour would have been worth the cost just to spend time talking to Cyndi Young. Her breadth of knowledge and passion for the Williamsburg area is amazing. This particular tour should be done before sunset. That's early in December. The decorations are lovely but the late 1700s weren't exactly known for being well lit. Dusk was lovely but it also gets chilly fast.

Our guide was excellent, so informative and patient to let us enjoy every detail of the tour. Upon my request she carried my camera and snapped pictures of my sister and me with the 2 little dogs, saving me the time of getting it in and out of the carrier. Cynthia Young was perfect for us, and she made us feel like family visiting and sightseeing with so much knowledge of the surrounding village and history. This was my first visit to Williamsburg and booking this tour, was a fantastic plus for the vacation time. She was able to give us a slower walk pace sometimes and did not rush us through the village. She gave me the link to the Compton oak at the edge of Market Square, so that I could locate it for my husband, when I got back home. She made time to explain the different materials used in the wreaths.
