We knew it would be hard to top last year’s giveaway, but this blogiversary we’re thrilled to offer an adventure- and luxury-filled Virginia vacation valued at about $3,000. Virginia tourism organization Virginia Is For Lovers invited us to take part in a new series highlighting real Virginians, and they asked to profile our trip. We loved our day on Virginia’s Eastern Shore—beaches, antiquing, fresh seafood, and even kayaking out to a vineyard—so the prize recreates that experience for one winner and a guest from anywhere in the world. The package includes airfare, charming bed & breakfast stays, a car rental, and extra adventures such as hang gliding.
The prize covers round-trip airfare and a car rental, plus one night each in two historic, charming bed & breakfasts: The Inn at Onancock and Cape Charles House. Both inns offer a welcoming, comfortable base for exploring the region’s small towns, shoreline, and scenic backwaters.
After a day on uncrowded beaches and wandering historic streets, the package makes sure you’ll dine well. It includes a meal at three waterfront restaurants known for fresh local seafood: Shanty, Mallards, and The Island House Restaurant. These spots showcase the Eastern Shore’s coastal flavors and relaxed atmosphere.
Relaxation is the main theme on the Eastern Shore, but the itinerary also offers memorable activities. Enjoy a Wine Kayak Tour led by guides from SouthEastern Expeditions, paddling peaceful waterways to a tasting at Chatham Vineyards. For a bigger thrill, the package includes hang gliding for two with Virginia Hang Gliding, giving you a chance to see the landscape from a whole new perspective.
We’re excited that one reader will win this fun-filled trip to our home state. Enter using the Rafflecopter widget below (it may take a moment to load). The prize is open to anyone worldwide, 18 years or older, and can be redeemed within the next year. Because some activities are seasonal, you may prefer to visit during warmer months.
