What is the recommended attire for these tours?

We recommend comfortable walking shoes
and weather-appropriate layers,
as most of our paths follow cobblestone,
brick walks, or natural earth terrain.
Wearing sturdy footwear is essential
for a safe and enjoyable journey through history.
Most people are glad that they brought
a sun-hat and sunglasses,
especially on hot summer days.

Are tours conducted
in inclement weather?

Our tours will proceed in light rain.
In the event of severe weather
or hazardous conditions,
we will contact you about rescheduling.
Your safety is our highest concern.

Is transportation provided
for these tours?

Transportation is not included with the tour,
so each guest will need to provide
their own transportation to the meeting location.
Don't worry! We will send you all of the details
in advance so finding us is simple.

Is lunch included
with the tour?

Lunch is not included with the ticket price.
A short break is built in to the schedule
so guests can enjoy lunch
at the Jamestown Settlement Cafe
at their own expense.
Our goal is to keep the tour ticket price lower
by leaving lunch flexible
and offering guests the option
to bring their own lunch.

Will we see the original Jamestown site?

Yes - with the EXTENDED TOUR and the VIP EXPERIENCE.
These tours focus on the actual historic site
where the English settlers lived,
