Informative of the people, events and history of Colonial Williamsburg.
Excellent tour - guide and information on Colonial Williamsburg history. I believe our guide was Louis who was excellent, passionate, full of information and very accommodating a woman in a motorized vehicle. One suggestion to Cool Destinations - the meeting place given was a street address. There are no numbers on the buildings on the old colonial street. Recommend just identifying a building by name and not the address. Of 12 people in our group, every on had trouble finding the meeting place. Four people called and caught up 15 minutes late!

Great way to spend an hour!
We wound up being the only people in the time slot; so we ad the equivalent of a private tour. Lonnie was a great guide; knowledgeable , personable and willing to go off- script to answer questions.

Great intro to Williamsburg history!
Our guide was very knowledgeable about Williamsburg in general, along with the haunted history! It was a very hot day but the pace was great. I would definitely recommend this as a good introduction to get a sense of Williamsburg before diving into the CW on your self-guided tours.

Colonial Williamsburg – Private Tour Celebrating American History
Raiyah_A, Sep 2026
Facts and fun with Sharon
What a fun experience for me and my mom! I wanted my mom to experience the living museum located in Williamsburg with a knowledgeable guide and we really did. The tour started at the Williamsburg Inn, which is a hidden gem because I 100% would have never visited and experienced the history and amazing food at this historical luxury hotel. It was nice to learn so much in so little time about the founding fathers! Most interesting fact i picked up....the reason why it was a death sentence if you stole 3 pigs or a horse or killed a man was because livestock could be someone's life/life saving. They didn't have forensics so thwarting a crime through harsh sentencing was the best way to keep people honest in the 1700's. Thanks for a wonderful tour/experience. Definitely coming back and will use you guys agai .
