Family of five behind schedule - We were a family of five, and we were running behind schedule for our tour. I notified our guide through the app, and he was able to accommodate our family despite the delay. Although our tour time was adjusted, he still managed to provide us with a wealth of information and history. We would definitely go back to revisit!

A great way to walk down... - A great way to walk down Duke of Gloucester Street and learn little known facts about Williamsburg. Been visiting Williamsburg for nearly 60 years and still learned new things.

Educational time travel with the ultimate knowledgeable guide. - My wife and I had the most enjoyable and informative hour walking Williamsburg's main street with Lonnie. He was punctual and considerate of both shade and resting benches. As we ambled from the Capitol building down to the Palace Green, Lonnie provided an informative and entertaining overview of both the historical and more recent reconstruction events that shaped Colonial Williamsburg into our present day experience. Highly recommended tour and guide!

Colonial Williamsburg Experience! - Lonnie was very knowledgeable and down to earth. Made the hour fun and informative. Covered enough in one hour to familiarize oneself with that era and additional facts that you would not read about. Would highly recommend!

Lonnie was an excellent... - Lonnie was an excellent tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, accommodating and he gave us a very interesting summary of the historic buildings and sites along the tour. I would highly recommend this brief tour especially if you do not have a lot of time to spend in Williamsburg.

The hot day in Williamsburg - This tour guide was knowledgeable and gave us time to sit in the shade! It was so hot, but he factored that into every moment of our tour!

Good Overview of Colonial Williamsburg - Our tour guide Lonnie gave us a great overview of the history of Williamsburg. It was a quick one-hour walking tour packed with information. We chose the 9:00 a.m. tour which, in my opinion, should not be offered. Colonial Williamsburg does not open until 10 a.m. so the streets were deserted and none of the buildings were open.

Not Good - You canceled our original tour at the last minute with no notice. We scheduled this and missed it because the information was incorrect. It was a bad experience. Very disappointed!
