The guide was excellent. We learned a lot. We were the only people on this tour. Made it more personal. Could hear everything that was said and we walked through slowly.

Tour was exactly what we hoped it would be! Small. Personalized. Informative and entertaining. Wife and I try and avoid LARGE commercial tours. and this was exactly what we were looking for. Lonnie was also helpful/accommodating as we were running late and he helped us catch up with the group

Lonnie was very knowledgeable about the history of Colonial Williamsburg. He is very personable. If you're ok with not entering the buildings then this is the type of tour for you.

Lonnie's a great tour guide. He's got tons of knowledge and shares it in a fun and entertaining way. The hour long tour was the perfect amount of time and allowed us to have time to walk around afterwards and explore on our own.
