5.00Elizabeth was passionate about sharing the history of Williamsburg. She tried to keep us cool and rested by finding shady benches for us to use while she spoke. She was great!

5.00The history tour with Elizabeth was fantastic. She kept my teens involved (especially my son who’s not an history buff) and engaged everyone in the storytelling of the past by giving them a role in it. Lots of fun. She also recognized the needs of the group and found shade and spots to sit throughout the walk. If we have time, we hope to squeeze in the ghost tour.
Very informative and enjoyable.

5.00Elizabeth is amazing! I couldn’t believe all I learned on this tour. She was animated, a great storyteller, loud enough to hear and gave us extra time. She truly cared about us learning everything we could.
