Ticket Suggestions - Williamsburg CW/BG/Jamestown

We%26#39;re heading to Williamsburg in early April with a 9, 7, and 5 year old. What are our best ticket options if we plan to spend a day in Williamsburg, a day at Busch Gardens, and a day at Jamestown? (possible one extra half day in Williamsburg). Is the bounce ticket worth it, or only better for longer stays? Are we better off getting single tickets at each location? (Looks like our 5 year old is not charged at Williamsburg).

Thank you.

I have found information that says that parking is included on bounce tickets, and some where it is not. Does anyone know for sure whether or not parking is included? (on the CW, BG and Water Country 7 day pass). If not - it would be worth it to upgrade to a 7-4-1 flex pass, where I know for sure it is, at least for one of us so that parking is free. ALso - there is no charge for children 15 and under in the national parks - so am I assuming correctly that they would be getting in free at Yorktown and Jamestown anyway? It seems silly to buy a 7-4-1 for kids if that is the case. Thanks as always for any help - it gets so confusing to try to sort it out on your own!


Parking at BG and WC is included in both the Bounce and Flex Passes. There is no charge for youth under 16 at the Nat%26#39;l Parks in Jamestown or Yorktown, but there is at the state sites, Jamestown Settlement and Yorktown Victory Center. Children 5 and under do not need passes at CW.

If I%26#39;ve figured everything corectly, your passes, if purchased at each location, would be a total of $438 for your entire family and $452 if you purchase the Bounce Pass. The difference is insignificant, so you may want to do the Bounce just for the flexibility it provides.


Sorry, the Bounce Pass does not include Jamestown, so an additional $60 would be required above the Bounce price. It may be better to purchase individually after all.
