I was here about 40 years ago and loved it. Now, the place is a shoppers delight but for a person with a hard time walking, was much too large. We regret not booking a horse tour but by the time we found a stand, the tours were booked. More

John Sutton really made our trip to Williamsburg a huge success.

Colonial Tours founder and guide John Sutton brings history to life. We took the train from DC to Williamsburg and were treated to a most amazing tour of Jamestown Settlement which included a reenactment of events between Pocahontas and John Smith with my family participating. A native Virginian, Sutton knows every detail of what transpired when and is great at... More
