The conference venue is in the heart of historic Williamsburg, within easy walking distance of nearly all Colonial Williamsburg attractions. Colonial Williamsburg offers complimentary bus service in and near the Historic Area; shuttles travel between the Visitor's Center and the Historic Area and also circle the Historic Area from 9:00 am to 10:00 pm.
The Historic Triangle Shuttle connects the Historic Triangle of Jamestown, Williamsburg and Yorktown. Provided as a free service by the National Park Service, the two routes of the Historic Triangle Shuttle depart every 30 minutes from the Colonial Williamsburg Visitor Center, one traveling along the Colonial Parkway to Jamestown, the other following the Parkway to Yorktown.
Service to Jamestown departs from the Colonial Williamsburg Visitor Center daily on the half-hour between 9 am and 3:30 pm and upon arriving at Jamestown, makes stops at both Historic Jamestowne and Jamestown Settlement. Return service to Colonial Williamsburg departs every half-hour from 9:30 am to 4 pm and makes a final departure at 5:15 pm.
Service to Yorktown departs from the Colonial Williamsburg Visitor Center daily on the half-hour between 9 am and 3:30 pm and makes stops at both the Yorktown Battlefield Visitor Center and the Yorktown Victory Center. Visitors can board for return service to Colonial Williamsburg from either the Yorktown Battlefield or the Yorktown Victory Center, with pickups every half-hour between 9:30 am and 4 pm, and a final pickup at 5:15 pm. Visitors should note that the Historic Triangle Shuttle merely provides transportation to Yorktown; it does not provide interpretive tours or transportation to individual attractions around the Yorktown Battlefield.
