This tour was amazing! I booked it for a birthday with 2 friends and we ended up being the only people on the tour that day (an August Friday before college went back to session). Our tour guide, Rachel, was so nice and fun, we had just got to Richmond that morning and she was able to give us great advice on where to go out, sites to see, the can't miss locations, etc.. We went to 6 restaurants and were able to talk to the proprietors about the history of the venues/neighborhood and sample many different types of food. We ate and drank our way around the Arts District for 3 hours and loved it so much that we went back to one of the restaurants (Wong Gonzalez) for dinner that night and were able to use our complementary coupon :) I would highly recommend this tour and make sure you get Rachel!
