Guided Tours. Jamestown offers a varity of tours and programs for our visiting public. There are Park Ranger/Guide tours, Living History programs, and for those that like to explore on their own, Self-Guided tours. The Ranger led and Living History tours and programs do not take you over the entire site but make a couple of stops along the way to talk about the history of Jamestown and the trials and tribulations of the early settlers. Throughout most of the year there are volunteers on site to assist visitors with any burning questions.
