In the afternoon, both young and old will be delighted by the Virginia Safari Park where you can feed 950+ exotic animals. Don't miss the free flight aviary, Tiger Territory, Kangaroo Walk-about, Petting Area, Giraffe Feeding Station and more! Relax in the early evening before taking an evening tour of Lexington with the Haunting Tales - Lexington Ghost Tour. This fun tour takes you through side streets and back alleys and shows you a unique side of the historic town.

Day 2
Head to Boxerwood Gardens Nature Center which covers 31 acres with at least 6 identifiable habitats. Children can visit the Nature Play Trail where the only rules are to "get dirty", "make noise" and "have fun"! In the afternoon, change into swimsuits for a memorable trip tubing/canoeing/swimming along the James or Maury River. No experience necessary to have a wonderful time! Finally, a visit to Hull's Drive-In Movie Theater - one of the few remaining drive-in theaters in Virginia.
