Members of the area’s hospitality industry are serious about ensuring plenty of fun during your stay. Visitor centers in all parts of the region will help you find age-appropriate activities for all members of your family. The “Passport to Historic Fredericksburg” offers reduced admission to various important landmarks.
Many historic sites offer year-round entertainment, educational programs, and hands-on activities. In addition to Colonial, Revolutionary, and Civil War attractions, visitors can enjoy scenic waterways, cultural and sporting events, winery tours and recreational activities. A trolley, horse-drawn carriage and riverboat offer unique means of experiencing the area’s sights and sounds.
The charming historic downtown district is an attraction in itself with art galleries, museums, antique and specialty shops, and restaurants housed in 18th- and 19th-century buildings. Fredericksburg, “America’s Most Historic City,” is listed in The Great Towns of America: A Guide to the 100 Best Getaways for a Vacation or Lifetime – meaning there is plenty to see and do.
