If you are a group leader – whether the group is a traditional organization, a travel club, a gathering of colleagues and friends, or your extended family – let us entertain you with a colorful, narrated tour of Virginia’s Northern Neck. We offer historical, cultural and ecological tours with just the right balance of education and recreation for groups of all sizes. And best of all, we customize your tour so that you get just what you are looking for.
Come, learn the rarely told story of this slice of America. Visit the plantations and landmarks of the English settlers who conquered America’s first frontier beyond Jamestown and St. Mary’s City. Trace the establishment of gentry family dynasties and the intimate links with their counterparts on the James River. Gain a better understanding of the lives of ordinary Virginians and those less fortunate who found themselves indentured or enslaved. Observe the role that the Northern Neck played in the Revolutionary and Civil Wars. See how our ancestors worked the water for crabs and oysters. Understand the 350-year-old economic foundation of farming, fishing, and forestry. Share the romance of the Steamboat Era.
