MoreSpread over 5,000 acres (2023.428 hectares), Monticello is one of the most well-known attractions in the region. Designed and built by the third president of the United States, Thomas Jefferson himself, this courtly edifice is lodged on the fringes of Charlottesville. Monticello’s design was heavily influenced by elements of the Italian Renaissance architecture, while also featuring Neoclassical and Palladian architectural styles. Among other crops, the plantation saw the cultivation of wheat and tobacco on a large scale. Skirted by winding, unpaved paths and wide expanses of delightful gardens, Monticello sits in stark contrast, and yet blends in with its ethereal, verdant surrounds. Steeped deep in antiquity and a strong sense of presidential heritage, Monticello also doubles as a museum and a research institute. Built in 1772, and now governed by the Thomas Jefferson Foundation (TJF), Monticello is now designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Less

  We were a little disappointed that while the home was nice to visit it was expensive and instruction of what to do and when was lacking. While a shuttle takes you to the home the lack and marking of... More

  Monticello was our second stop of a five stop tour of Virginia and West Virginia and it was by far the BEST! Tour guides take you back to the 1700's, sharing insight into the remarkable life of Thomas... More
