Cute and homey visitors center! I don't normally write reviews, but I had an engaging and welcoming experience here. Shout out to Lisa for being so knowledgeable and kind. She knows everything about Norfolk and its surrounding cities. This place has all the information you need to know for the Hampton Roads area. Also has a very nice selection of merchandise. Would definitely check out if you have the chance and are in the area.
I was able to pick up some literature that Azalea Gardens Middle School students needed and enjoyed reading in preparation for several indepth independent assignments! THANK YOU, VisitNorfolk!
Here’s a revised and expanded version of your review for VisitNorfolk: A Great Resource for Locals and Visitors Alike Even as locals, we’ve visited VisitNorfolk a couple of times, and each experience has been wonderful. During a downtown conference, I stopped in when the weather unexpectedly turned cold and was able to grab a locally branded sweatshirt, which was a nice bonus. More recently, we stopped by while exploring specific aspects of local history and needed information and print materials. On our most recent visit, Deborah was exceptionally helpful and knowledgeable. She provided us with exactly what we were looking for and engaged us in some great conversation, making the experience even better. The shop itself has a lot to offer, from informative brochures to unique local souvenirs. Whether you’re visiting Norfolk or just exploring the city as a local, it’s a great place to stop for resources and a little piece of Norfolk to take home with you. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area!
Nice knowledgeable staff and cute shop!
typical milatary town, the couple places I stopped were not a warm reception. Nice beach on Chesapeake Bay side
