Best Tours & Experiences in Williamsburg for Kids & Families

Looking for the best tours & experiences in Williamsburg for kids? As living history where the 1770s come alive, Williamsburg offers guided activities and unique local experiences that families won't find anywhere else. Whether you're visiting for the first time or looking for something new, we've rated every option for age-appropriateness, stroller access, and value so you can skip the guesswork.

Tours with kids are hit or miss. Walking tours over 90 minutes lose most children. We rate each for pace, engagement level, and whether there are enough stops to keep little legs moving. Private and small-group tours almost always work better with families. In Williamsburg, expect four seasons — spring and fall are ideal, summer is hot and humid. Pro tip: Colonial Williamsburg can overwhelm young kids. Focus on hands-on workshops (blacksmithing, printing) and skip the lengthy lectures. Busch Gardens is right next door.

Below you'll find our curated list of tours & experiences in Williamsburg, VA — each with detailed age ratings (infants through teens), cost estimates for a family of four, and the practical parent details that matter: parking, stroller access, nursing rooms, and honest reviews of what makes each spot worth your time.
