The grand parade of white columned mansions along the mighty Mississippi River begins with Vicksburg. As the state’s largest, most cosmopolitan city at the time of the War Between the States, Vicksburg’s architecture is among the most diverse in the state. With styles ranging from antebellum Greek Revival to turn-of-the-century, Vicksburg Pilgrimage Tours are truly unique. Come visit an area first settled in 1698, where the grand manner of life in the Old South lives on in stately homes along tree-lined streets. The River City’s spirit and traditions prevail, despite the toll of the 47-day Siege of Vicksburg in 1863, which was a pivotal point in the War. Each Pilgrimage home is privately owned and occupied, with most listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Many offer bed and breakfast accommodations by prior arrangement. The homes are impeccably maintained, furnished with period antiques, and still as resplendent as ever. Join us for Vicksburg’s Pilgrimage and enjoy a visit you’ll long remember. Fall
