• Peyton Randolph House - Your journey starts at the Peyton Randolph House, the former residence of a passionate revolutionary and one of Williamsburg’s oldest structures! While William Randolph may not be a household name, he was a trusted associate of figures like Thomas Jefferson.
• Colonial Williamsburg Capitol Building - At our next stop, listen for the iconic fife and drum parade that regularly marches through the town. Here, you’ll also discover the military importance of these historical instruments.
• Bassett Hall - Nestled on 585 acres of lawn, garden, and woodlands, Bassett Hall is a simple two-story 18th-century white frame farmhouse. It was once the Williamsburg home of John D. Rockefeller Jr. and his wife Abby Aldrich Rockefeller. Philip Johnson, a member of the House of Burgesses from King and Queen County, Virginia, is believed to have constructed the 18th-century frame house between 1753 and 1766. It was purchased by Burwell Bassett around 1800, and Union cavalryman George Armstrong Custer was a guest during the Civil War.
• Raleigh Tavern - Next, you’ll visit the Raleigh Tavern, where rebellious Virginians gathered to plan a potential revolution against their British rulers. These meetings even included notable figures like Thomas Jefferson!
• Colonial Williamsburg Magazine - Then, you’ll arrive at the Colonial Williamsburg Magazine, the site of a tense standoff between American patriots and British soldiers attempting to seize all the gunpowder from the town before it could be used by the rebels.
• Colonial Williamsburg Courthouse - Directly across from the Magazine, you’ll find the old courthouse, where Williamsburg residents first heard the Declaration of Independence read aloud.
• George Wythe House - Next is the George Wythe House, home to a signer of the Declaration of Independence who was unique among his peers for one reason: he was an abolitionist. In Virginia, a state heavily reliant on slave labor, this stance did not earn him many friends.
• Armistead House - Following that is the Bowden-Armistead House, whose history highlights some of the deep divisions that ran through Williamsburg during the Civil War. The owner was a northerner, and you can imagine how his Virginian neighbors felt about that…
• The Wren Building - The final stop on your tour is the Wren Building, an impressive structure that is not only the oldest building on the William & Mary Campus but also the oldest college building in the United States!
• Yorktown Battlefield Visitor Center - Our tour begins outside the Yorktown Battlefield Visitor Center at 1000 Colonial National Historical Pkwy, Yorktown. If you’re not there already, you should head there now.

Note: This tour covers over 10 miles and includes the key sites of Yorktown Battlefield in 2-3 hours.

• Moore House - Representatives from Cornwallis and Washington met at the Moore House, where the British offered total surrender to the French and American coalition.
• Washington’s Headquarters at Yorktown - This site remains a crucial part of American history, as it was here that plans were made for the final battle of the American Revolution.
• French Artillery Park - Just as the French Navy played a significant role in the success of the American Revolution, so did the French artillery.
• Grand French Battery - The Grand French Battery was the site of the largest concentration of French artillery during the Battle of Yorktown.
• Yorktown National Cemetery - You might be surprised to learn that this is not a Revolutionary War cemetery but a Civil War burial ground.
• Yorktown Victory Monument - Our journey concludes at the Yorktown Victory Monument, a fitting end to the tour. This monument was conceived shortly after Cornwallis’s surrender.
