Private tour of the American Revolution Museum at Yorktown for your group. Some of the Yorktown Battlefields (Surrender Field), the federal museum (National Park Service with General Washington's original tent from the Battle at Yorktown in October 1781), monument, and cave where Cornwallis retreated at Yorktown Beach. This exclusive tour includes an in depth learning experience about the siege of Yorktown that lasted several weeks and explores the surrendering of arms on October 19, 1781 including Surrender Field. If you are visiting Williamsburg and have a group of 4 people, we can drive the Colonial Parkway (completed in the 1940s) to each of the sites. The afternoon tour at the American Revolution Museum at Yorktown includes the canon firing at 3:00pm (weather dependent). We spend about 2 hours touring and about an hour driving which makes this a 3 hour tour. If we meet in Yorktown, then the tour is about 2 hours, slightly longer if anyone shops at the museums.
Explore the museum, interact with battle games and interpreters, musket fired every half hour, canon is fired at 3 pm, depending on the weather, and enter the farm of a local tobacco and cotton family.
