A Driving and Photo Journey for your private group up to 13 people... We will investigate native american sites related to the life of Pocahontas, her VIP father "Powhatan" and her people.

A very meaningful experience.
Bring your vehicle for a few stops including native american tribes once loyal to her powerful father, who was over 30 tribes in eastern VA. Sacred and burial sites. John Smith. Royalty. Places where we know Pocahontas was. Join the Mountain Man and Gemma "Pocahontas" as we bring this time to life.

Perhaps you will even see some of her jewelry...!
Photo Tips for picture taking, compelling depth for your FB / IG / YT / TW / Pin followers!

Private Colonial Williamsburg Architectural Tour
We will discuss the different philosophies of architectural preservation between Europe and the United States during the late 19th and 20th Century and how it applies to the restoration of Colonial Williamsburg. The restoration materials of Colonial Williamsburg had to appear as if they were constructed in the 18th Century. For example, the roofs of many of the reconstructed buildings were man made fire retardant composites, and the masonry emulated the original bound of the public buildings.
When the Main College was rededicated as the Wren building, credit was given to the the famous English Architect, Sir Christopher Wren. However, there is no proof that this is true. The base of this building is a Flemish design as opposed to the English bond. As the Wren building stands today, it is a redesign of the building that existed in 1733.
It will be a comprehensive discussion of the vision of Rev. W.A.R. Goodwin and John D. Rockfeller, Jr. that resulted in Colonial Williamsburg.
