Best tour in Williamsburg. - John was great. The lunch at the Jamestown Museum was great. Highly recommend the Ruben. Best Ruben I've had in a long time. The tour and our guide was very engaging and knowledgeable about the area and even shared stories that weren't necessarily a part of the tour but very entertaining and interesting. Highly recommend.

Jamestown and Yorktown history - It was a very enjoyable day and very informative day. All tour guides in this world could and should take lessons from our guide,Matt. He was very knowledgeable and could write the history books on the Jamestown and Yorktown history.

Great tour but poorly presented on the day. - A disappointing experience from the historical and information perspective. It seems that Matt the regular guide was not available for the day. John, his self identified stand. In , was pleasant and good fun but his knowledge of the history around the key topics of Colonial settlement and the American Revolution was very limited. He tried to compensate by being very friendly and up beat but he was clearly struggling on the historiography of the sites we were visiting. The time allocated at each stop was not ideal and was out of step with the published timing because of a wrong turning. We had a pleasant time and the locations included more than enough exploration and we were able to gain some good insight at each stop through information provided and the re - enactors present. It’s a pity that the tour itself contributed very little to that. Earlier reviews had stressed this element of the tour, so we were really disappointed when this failed to appear.
