Get a Customized Personal Tour in Colonial Williamsburg

A customized and personal tour explained.

As events honoring America's 250th birthday are in full-swing, what better time than now to bring this blog to life for any of you able to visit us here in Colonial Williamsburg~ so I got myself certified to give tours.

But not just any tour. Nope.

• You won't find "tickets" available online.
• You won't be in a large group of strangers trying to edge forward to hear what I'm saying.
• You will know I'm basing everything on research, learning from the historians directly, and - of course, on primary sourced material.

I want your visit to this area, and you 60+ minutes with me in the historic area (and around it) personalized.

So what does that mean exactly?

I have questions for you! It's not just about your interests, but when you'll be here, who will or will not be with you, and more.

I'll take your responses and input into account, and put together a customized tour for you.

Starting rate: $25/person for a one-hour tour.

Families, small groups, corporate meetings... let's discuss!
Want tours on multiple themes throughout your visit?.... lets' discuss!

Thank you.

Realizing how many people were finding my blog, I decided to make this blog my focus and not just a hobby. I took all the steps to turn it into a business and here we are- on the eve (actually in the midst!) of celebrating America's 250th.

Thank you for being a part of the journey. It's my goal to the people, places, art, objects...even events... that embody our shared American history.

Closing words from history.

Patrick Henry's words! An excerpt from his Parson's Cause Speech. You can read more here on Red Hill's website. An example of what I hinted at above, Patrick Henry didn't seem to write his speeches down...

[Captain Thomas Trevilian, a member of the audience, recalled this portion of Henry’s speech.]

We have heard a great deal about the benevolence and holy zeal of our reverend clergy, but how is this manifested? Do they manifest their zeal in the cause of religion and humanity by practicing the mild and benevolent precepts of the Gospel of Jesus? Do they feed the hungry and clothe the naked? Oh, no, gentlemen! Instead of feeding the hungry and clothing the naked, these rapacious harpies would, were their powers equal to their will, snatch from the hearth of their honest parishioner his last hoe-cake, from the widow and her orphan child their last milch cow! The last bed, nay, the last blanket from the lying-in woman!

There is a huge practical disclaimer to the content on this blog, which is my way of sharing my excitement and basically journaling online.

1) I am not a historian nor an expert. I will let you know I’m relaying the information as I understand and interpret it. The employees of Colonial Williamsburg base their presentations, work, and responses on historical documents and mainly primary sources.

2) I will update for accuracy as history is constant learning. If you have a question about accuracy, please ask me! I will get the answer from the best source I can find.
