10 days in Williamsburg Itinerary

Founded in 1632 as a fortified settlement on the high ground between two rivers, Williamsburg served as a colonial capital of Virginia for over 80 years.

Visit Menokin and Saint Bede Catholic Church for their historical value. You'll discover tucked-away gems like George Wythe House and Kenmore Plantation and Gardens. Venture out of the city with trips to Blandford Church and Cemetery (in Petersburg), Fredericksburg (Fredericksburg Battlefield and Visitor Center, The Rising Sun Tavern, & more) and George Washington Birthplace National Monument (in Colonial Beach). The adventure continues: immerse yourself in nature at York River State Park, test your team's savvy at popular escape rooms, take in the history at Cold Harbor Battlefield Park, and admire the striking features of Wren Building.
