Really well put together museum and reenactors. Really friendly workers here. Cool ships to get on and learn about. The Indian village and fort were great. Really enjoyed learning about the area life at the time. Displays were very interesting.
-
The exhibits were very nice - great videos, lovely reproductions and some real artifacts. The recreations of the Native American village, European boats, and the Jamestown Settlement were well done. The actors in costume were knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed ourselves a lot!

No idea how this is only #15 of 89 things to do in Williamsburg area on TripAdvisor! Personally, I felt as though the movies alone were worth the price of admission ($18/ adult). “1607: A Nation Takes Root” was informative and examined the eventual connectivity of three cultures, deeply impacting the future of our continent. The film “Bacon’s Rebellion” was immersive & multi-sensory, with a huge screen and four other screens in front that provided dimensional perspective. Highly educational & dramatic. The guides/ re-enactors were amazing. All were very well-spoken and our experience was night & day different from Colonial Williamsburg, whereby hardly anyone spoke to us or made our visit worthwhile. In fact, you could really tell how each individual at Jamestown Settlement took their job as being consequential & important, involving both kids and adults. The exhibits/ galleries at Jamestown Settlement were all worthy of visiting, as well as the ships, James Fort, and Paspahegh Town. Please be aware that Historic Jamestowne is the original location and current archaeological dig site. I also thoroughly enjoyed our visit there. Only complaint I have was with the separate ticket we had to purchase here, as well. However, both locations are a must-see!

The Jamestown settlement and Yorktown museum were very interesting and educational. Listening to the actors tell how life would have been lived made their struggles come to life. You can go at your own pace, and we completed both in a day, but could have spent more time easily. It was raining so we ate in the cafe at Jamestown- awesome food! The brisket was amazing and the Brunswick stew was perfect. Throw in a huge biscuit for the win.

My teenagers where not that thrilled about going on a history trip But once we entered the settlement and got to step back in time they changed their time. We completed the historic triangle with visits to yorktown American revolution museum, riverwalk in Yorktown ( go to the beach) JAmestown settlement… eat at the cafe, and a pirate, witches abs ghost tour in colonial williamsburg. It truly made for a great family vacation and lots of wonderful memories were made.

Fabulous museum. We did the outdoor part first, since it was threatening rain. Such a great experience- enjoyed it thoroughly. Loved being able to board the ships and talk with the guides in all the different area. The indoor museum was amazing- we loved the mixture of reading, films, artifacts. The way it is laid out made it so easy to follow the history. Thanks to all involved in the design and layout- truly a gem.
-
Having the freedom to visit for any of 7 days is a real treat. Especially since the museum is big, with a lot of exhibits telling about life in the days of the settlement. Loved the ships!!
-
Outstanding. A must see for history lovers. Worth the time and effort. Realistic portrayals of life a that time.

Definitely get the multi-site pass, we spent the morning at Jamestown and the afternoon at Yorktown, but we felt rushed, there’s a TON of stuff at both sites and we almost missed the special exhibit entirely, so big ups to the person who asked if we had seen it! It would have been a shame, it’s really neat how it spanned the two museums, and we’re big Outlander fans, so seeing the connection between the Jacobites and modern America made it a particularly captivating and informative exhibit for us. The farm at Yorktown was probably my favorite spot - they even have a farm cat - but my boyfriend was most enthusiastic about the ships at Jamestown. The replicas are super good, but the real win is the costumed staff, they were all incredibly engaging and knowledgeable, and I could have easily spent a whole day at each site if we’d had more time.

History of Jamestown is fascinating- debunks some of the historical tales out there- great videos- take time to watch. After the museum head outside to the fort, Indian village and the ships- talk to the actors- they are a wealth of knowledge
