For the outdoors enthusiast:

Ballooning at Boar’s Head

What better way to see the beauty of Charlottesville than to start your day in a hot air balloon followed by a gourmet picnic lunch in Virginia wine country? The entire experience will last approximately three hours, but the memories will last a lifetime! To learn more call Rick Behr at 434-960-2814.

For the family:

Carter Mountain Orchard 

We aren’t sure which is more famous, the orchard or the fresh donuts they serve! The whole family will have fun from an array of activities such as movie screenings, picnics, festivals and more!

For the historian:

Monticello

Spend a day on the beautiful grounds of Monticello and get an intimate look at Thomas Jefferson. No other home reflects the personality of its owner than Monticello, Thomas Jefferson’s Architectural masterpiece and beloved mountaintop home. Don’t forget to purchase your tickets online before you go!
