Virginia can make American history come alive. Visit Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello, tour Civil War battlefields, explore the living history museum at Williamsburg… the possibilities are endless (if the kids object, break up the historical sightseeing with a visit to Busch Gardens). Arlington, site of Arlington National Cemetery, is just across the Potomac River from all the major sites in D.C. In addition to beaches and historical attractions, Virginia has plenty to offer outdoor enthusiasts. Active families will love the Blue Ridge Highlands, where hiking, canoeing and tubing are just a few of the activities offered. Couples might enjoy a romantic mountain cabin in Virginia after a day of hiking in Shenandoah National Park.

Lori and Berkley are very knowledgeable about Danville and made this tour so much fun! Everyone in my group was excited to ride Segways for the first time; it was a blast! We really enjoyed all the little tidbits of history that Lori doled out during our jaunt. I can't wait until we're all together again and can take another tour :)

Our”girls trip” decided to try the segways. Ages 16 to 71. We all loved it. Was not difficult. The guide,Vince, gave you plenty of instruction and was always watching out for everyone on the tour. The stops on the tour gave you a great overall feel for the city. We even got a little time to have fun with the Segway. I wish our guide had talked a little slower and louder. Maybe a microphone but certainly would recommend this tour to everyone! Great job Vince!
