5.00Extremely interesting. Patrick had an extensive background knowledge of both the Williamsburg area and of centuries of historical events that took place here. A guide who can hold the rapt attention of a 14-year-old for 90 minutes is worth his weight in gold, and Patrick did just that!

5.00We had a great time on this tour! We didn’t do any of the add-ons but the base one-hour activity at 8pm was just right. Patrick was an excellent storyteller! Our 11-year-old loves spooky stuff and she had a blast.
Haunting History

5.00We had a wonderful time learning about the haunting history of Williamsburg from Vince. We are in VA to tour William & Mary and my high school senior was especially excited to tour the school at night and learn some of the school’s lore that isn’t on the college’s tour. I highly recommend the experience!
Fantastic Experience
