Day 1: Welcome Aboard! Join us for a fun-filled
overnight get-away full of holiday cheer and yuletide spirit in historic
Williamsburg, Virginia. Today we visit the nation’s largest and oldest
outdoor living museum, Colonial Williamsburg. Step into the past and join
in the creation of a new nation. Enjoy being swept up in the daily life of a
busy 18th-century city as we are greeted by shopkeepers, slaves, and
outspoken patriots. Visit the original and restored homes, public buildings and
shops, and stroll the more than 90-acres of landscaped gardens and courtyards.
Your Two Day Pass provides full access to historic exhibition buildings,
including the Governor’s Palace, Capital, Museums and The Revolutionary City.
Before checking into the Days Inn Historic Area, for the night, we are
treated to a delicious dinner at the Whaling Company, and attend
The Grand Illumination celebration. Williamsburg’s Grand Illumination
event signals the start of the holiday season, and features the lighting of
candles, the illumination of the buildings, caroling, dancing, music, and
concludes with a festive fireworks display.
Day 2: After a deluxe continental breakfast we
are off to continue our exploration of Colonial Williamsburg. Strolling
through Colonial Williamsburg’s Historic Area during the holiday season is a
treat for the senses with windows and doors decorated in 18th-century
fashion, handcrafted wreaths, fresh greenery, and festive garlands. Before
departing for home, we are treated to an early afternoon lunch at
King’s Arms Tavern and a stop at the Yankee Candle Company where
there will be time for some last minute holiday shopping. Happy Holidays!
