See What's New at Monticello
This coach tour will provide opportunities to view Thomas Jefferson's private suite, bountiful gardens that provide stunning views, and new spaces and exhibits, including one focused on the Life of Sally Hemings, one of the most famous-and least known-African American women in U.S. history.Upon our arrival to Monticello, we will board a shuttle that provides transport to the mountaintop estate.
We will then take a 40-minute guided tour of the first floor before enjoying lunch on our own at the onsite cafe.
The afternoon is yours to enjoy as you wish, with options for escorted tours offered on the hour and exploration at the Visitor Center.
