Summary: Everything you will need to know, and more!
Review: If anything, this guide book has too much information! It's packed full of info on restaurants, places to visit, hotels, the military, Colonial Williamsburg and so on, all in great detail. You'll need to spend some serious time on the couch to read through all of it! I like that it includes info that people who are just visiting Williamsburg will need, plus the info that those thinking of moving to Williamsburg will need (neighborhoods, hospitals, and daycares). Does a good job of giving detailed descriptions of hotels and restaurants so travellers can narrow down their options. Also includes interesting cultural issues like Southern food and the Native American heritage and how to pronounce local words correctly.

Summary: Great for a first visit!
Review: The area of Williamsburg is large that if you are planning a weekend trip or a week's vacation, it's imperative to get a "lay of the land" before you go! This book allows you to do that!This book helps you decide where to spend your time in this wonderful city: Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown, Busch Gardens, Golf and Golf galore, not to mention the tons of shopping and restaurant choices to make! A lot of people get fooled thinking that there isn't much to do in and around this town.....this book showcases all the different activities (and when the busy times are at each) as well as giving you a glimpse of what to do and not to do with the kiddos. I highly recommend visiting this area .....and buying this book before you go!

Summary: THE ONLY GUIDE YOU'LL NEED
Review: This nearly 500-page guide is one of the best I've seen on Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown and the surrounding areas. Everything you need is here - info on many restaurants and types of lodging, shopping, nightlife, daytrips to James River plantations and other attractions, museums, golf, parks, and "kidstuff". A wide range of price options is shown to accommodate all vacation budgets - yes, you can still find a good, clean motel room for around $60! A section entitled "Myths and Legends" discusses the spookier side of Colonial Williamsburg's historic homes and a few plantations. Sections on neighborhoods, healthcare, education/childcare, and retirement options are here for the many smitten visitors who don't want to leave. Informative and fun to read, this guide also includes many b/w photos, five easy to read maps, insider tips, and a comprehensive index. Great book!
