The history of england

Suggested holidays: Already mentioned is our tailormade flydrive itinerary - Experience The Historic Deep South, or you can sit back and relax on an escorted tour with a Tour Manager helping you experience the best of Charleston, such as The American South.
To gain the ultimate insight into America’s pre-civil war days, it doesn’t get any better than Williamsburg, Virginia’s colonial capital and a hub for many of the most significant political and cultural events of the time. Colonial Williamsburg is one of the world’s largest living history museums, effectively functioning as a huge outdoor theatrical stage. It offers visitors an authentic recreation of American colonial life, featuring hundreds of refurbished buildings, live re-enactments and numerous actors adorned in period costumes.
Keep an eye out for the famous Wren building, the Capitol Residence and Governor’s Palace, as well as the Bruton Parish Church. The area is also filled with traditional shops, craft, cooking and farming demonstrations, and plenty of taverns and coffeehouses where you can sample popular eighteenth century dishes. Beyond the theatrical recreation, the town of Williamsburg itself is also well worth exploring. One notable attraction is the prestigious College of William and Mary, the second oldest college in America, and boasting an impressive list of alumni that includes three US presidents.
Suggested holidays: Self-Drive Colonial America is a journey of discovery through the most interesting historical locations in eastern USA, and the Historic Highlights escorted tour features two nights in Williamsburg allowing plenty of time to learn all about life in Colonial Willamsburg and also includes a very pleasant evening in a charming local tavern.
