Celebrate Christmas like one of the first settlers in the New World as we travel into the historic tidewater region of Virginia for a Williamsburg Christmas Celebration. Upon arrival to Williamsburg, we check in our hotel for a two-night stay. We have an optional shopping visit to Williamsburg Premium Outlets, home to designer outlet stores. This evening a Colonial-style Christmas dinner is included at the Old Chickahominy House. (D)

We spend today exploring one of the most historic towns in America, decorated for the holidays as it was done years ago. In the 18th century capital city of Virginia we’ll get to walk the cobblestoned streets visiting several historic buildings, including the Governor’s Palace. Dinner is included this evening at one of Williamsburg’s delightful restaurants. This evening after dinner, we return to the village to see the candle lights and night sights of Christmas. The night sky is illuminated in the colonial capital. Enjoy the lighting of the cressets, and musical performances throughout the streets and see the firework displays from the Capital and the Palace. (D)

The year was 1607 and the first permanent English settlement was being established in the New World. See a re-creation of this settlement this morning as we make a stop at Jamestown. We board the Jamestown- Scotland Ferry to Scotland, Virginia, traveling home. We arrive early evening with colonial Christmas memories.
