Fine leaving Wilmington. Up the road around Windsor, it will be quicker to take 13. No tolls, these are mostly country roads (after you leave Jacksonville and New Bern) but well maintained.
A relaxing option - If you get on Highway 10 above Suffolk, you skip the heavy Hampton Roads traffic around Norfolk. Go up to Surry, VA, turn right (northeast) on 31 and take the free hourly ferry to Jamestown. Williamsburg is nearby.
It's called the Jamestown-Scotland Ferry if you want to google for info.
