Itinerary
Experience the many ghosts of this old colonial town that are still seen today. Learn of the hangings of Blackbeard's crew and what happened to Blackbeard's skull. Did our forefathers really drink from his skull? Stand right where Grace Sherwood, the most famous witch, is often seen during mock trials in the Capitol and hear of her fate, finally pardoned by Gov. Tim Kean after centuries of being called the Witch of Pungo. Learn of Anne Bonny and Mary Reed (a woman posing as Mark Reed) who were aboard Calico Jack's ship and fought like men. Top it all off by going to the Jones Graveyard, where Ida Jones still haunts the graves today, in the late-night hours.

We had a great experience with michael. He was very friendly and knowledgeable and loved to hear about the Peyton house. We got lots of great pictures and it was a wonderful experience.
Thank you so very much for the awesome. I’ve started you! And you had such a great time with Michael. He is one of our great guides so glad you got some pictures too. Safe travels sincerely Lisa.
We really enjoyed Mike and his shared knowledge and personality. He was easy to hear and understand (I wear hearing aids and usually have a hard time hearing guides). It was a little cooler to do this in the evening, but harder to take pictures once the sun went down. Overall, it was a good experience and I would recommend this to anyone looking for a guided tour.
Awesome we’re so glad you had such a great time with Mike. Yes, he is a very passionate guide and he has a wonderful radio voice. That’s what we always tell him. So glad you could hear him and had a great time. Safe travels sincerely Lisa.

Guide Mike was informative, very pleasant & entertaining. Fascinating tidbits of colonial history & various settlers. Right amount of time in each location. No interior visits inside houses, which we had expected
Thank you for the awesome five star review! We’re so glad you had such a wonderful time with Mike. He is a wealth of knowledge and he loves to have fun. Safe travels sincerely Lisa.
Our tour guide, Grace, didnt dress in colonial clothing. She spoke SO fast and jumped from crazy story to crazy story. She seemed to have messed up dates and times and acted like a crazy person half the time... I feel like we didnt learn much and just wanted to leave half way through. Even my two girls didn't understand what she was saying most of the time. Pretty disappointed.
Safe travels! As you see by all the other 5 star reviews people love our tour and especially Gracie .
The Witches, ghosts, and pirates tour was great! It was about 2 hours of stories (with audience participation) amd history about events in Colonial Williamsburg. Gracie was a wonderful guide!
Thank you so very much much for the Awesome 5 Star review! We are so glad you had a Great time with Gracie! Safe travels! Sincerely, Lisa
