"One thing to always remember around Williamsburg and most of Virginia: No road runs compass-straight. Ever. The hilly, river-crossed terrain doesn't lend itself to it. Locals joke that some roads run the way they do because some native or settler wandered crookedly centuries ago.
So remember that Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown are small, and roads in the heart of the localities are paved versions of the early paths of the colonists: quaint, sometimes narrow, and often congested. Give yourself plenty of time to make it to your destination at the desired hour."
I'm currently in Williamsburg and found this book to be helpful planning my trip and also during the trip. Lots of family fun.
