5.00A family friendly and fun spooky walk through Williamsburg. It made me want to visit the Bruton Parish Church. Relevant Christmas stories for our Holiday Spirits of Christmas Past tour. Guide was patient and worked with our group (one had to walk slow from a car ride injury). We chose this one because of the cancellation policy and would recommend it! Happy Trails!
