Yorktown Battlefield Tours and Tickets

The York River is a favorite spot for boaters of all size vessels. Get out on the water and experience the joy of sailing down the York on this cruise launching from Gloucester Point. Join your captain on a 32-foot sloop and ride down the York at a relaxed pace. Find a quiet place to enjoy the view on the bow of the boat. Aspiring sailors can head to the helm, hoist the spinnaker, and captain the boat.

Jamestown, Williamsburg, and Yorktown, VA are each living representation of Colonial America. Together, these towns form the Historic Triangle, scenically connected by the 23-mile Colonial Parkway. Your experience will begin with a scenic trip from DC to Jamestown – England’s first permanent settlement in America as well as the first capital of Virginia. Your tour guide will escort you through Historic Jamestown to observe the remnants of Fort James, site of the first permanent English settlement in North America! Together we will visit the reconstructed Glasshouse of 1608 and walk in the footsteps of Captain John Smith and Pocahontas. Next, you will visit Colonial Williamsburg where you will enjoy a guided walk through the world's largest living history museum. Before heading back to DC, you will visit Yorktown and observe the battlefield where General George Washington led the Continental Army to defeat British General Cornwallis and his troops during the Revolutionary War.
