Overview

Take a trip to Virginia on your United States Vacation

Horse racing in the spring, tanning on lazy beaches in the summer, hiking the Blue Ridge mountains in the fall and immersing yourself in historic towns with names that resonate the moment you hear them, Virginia is a very vibrant place.

Scenic drives along the James and York Rivers, Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, inland through the rolling plains of Piedmont and the western Appalachian and Blue Ridge mountain ranges are memorable and filled with outdoor adventures as diverse as the landscapes.

Walk in the shoes of eight different American presidents who hail from Virginia, including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and James Monroe and explore Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown as you ease yourself into the many pubs filled with historic character and the living characters of Virginia.

Pretty towns, Civil War battlefields, romantic inns in quaint villages brimming with ghost stories and tales passed down from the times of the first American permanent settlers who came to Virginia in the 1700s. Museums present recreations of some of America’s bloodiest and most significant battles and sharing a pint over a bowl of peanut soup in a stone tavern from the time of Washington, you’ll likely encounter a knowledgeable Virginian who will enrich your knowledge of this historic state with their own personal touch.

Along the River Potomac, Washington’s home, the Mount Vernon Estate as well as other preserved plantation houses including Woodlawn and Gunston Hall feature ornate Georgian stone carvings and elaborate gardens to take you back in time and enrich your knowledge of America’s history.
