That makes sense, but I really don't remember. The differences should be obvious when you get there. You will have to decide for yourself whether you prefer "real" or "faux". As I indicated, our group chose "real". Another thing that I remember is that it is a long way from DC. We spent the night in Williamsburg before going to Jamestowm (actually, we visited Wm&Mary and Colonial Williamsburg in the previous days). If you get an early start from Williamsburg, you may have time to do both before heading back to DC, depending on your stamina. ======================================= Thank you for your advise. Starting early first thing in the morning at our DC hotel, we plan to rent a car, then, drive direct from DC to Jametown Settlement - the "faux" one. How long will the typical out of town cautious driver take? If we just tour for couples of hour, then, return directly to DC to return our rental car. How much time will this take? Thank you.
