This is by far the best museum I have ever been to. And I have been to more than I can count. The older woman working who insisted we went back to watch a ten minute show was a beautiful soul! She wa…Full review by Angelize1999

Pros: The living history was excellent. Everyone we asked a question had great in depth answers. They even cooked up some actual food in the company kitchen for display. There's a colonial encamp…Full review by Paul B

Amazing museum with so much to see, that it's almost overwhelming. We noticed that some places had guides which would have been a good idea.Full review by beth ann k

Q:
General question about a few things. We want to see Jamestown Settlement, Yorktown (including Revolutionary War Museum) and Colonial Williamsburg. How many days should we plan? I’m wondering if we could do all of them in 2 days. And what do you suggest for best planning? Thank you!
A:
Overall 2 days is not enough for those 3. I’d suggest 3 days minimum. But if you like to fly through exhibits, take a shallow dip in and then move on, maybe? If you only have 2 days …

Asking the admission price is a tough one as there are all sorts of ticket combinations. The Historic Triangle Pass for $91 might be best for many, but we didn't go that route as we, as seniors and retired military, with a National Parks pass, did a different combo and came out a few bucks cheaper by actually buying the annual Colonial Williamsburg pass and a combo pass for just Jamestown Settlement and this American Revolution Museum. IIRC, because of our National Parks pass, we got in free to Historic Jamestown and to the Yorktown Battlefield Museum and battlefield, although I would strongly recommend buying the CD for use in touring the battlefield. It was the very knowledgeable cashier at Colonial Williamsburg visitors center that steered me towards this combination, and later at the hotel was amazed that she actually knew just how to save us "lunch money" given my National Parks pass, and senior and retired military status.

A:
The Jamestown Settlement and the Museum at Yorktown are operated by the same non profit and they do an outstanding job at both. The American Revolution Museum is my first choice for both indoor and outdoor activities. If the children have not had an American History class in school, do prep them for the best experience. You can break up the indoor and outdoor time to create variety

There all good. But the Yorktown Revolutionary Museum just reopened this spring with a new building and it's much larger than the old building. It has a cafe inside, and your only a mile away from the Yorktown beach. There are several restaurants at the beach also. To much to do in one day in this area. Try to sneak in an extra day if you can. You won't be disappointed.... enjoy!
