This was such a fun day! We visited six different restaurants, all exellent. They were right when they said we would not go home hungry. We can't wait to go back to their other tours. River City Food Tours was amazing. They answered my emails immediately, made sure that each restaurant was aware of my dietary restrictions. They were awesome! Erin made the tour so much fun! Her personality, knowledge, and love of their company, and of Richmond really made all the difference. This tour is a must whether you are visiting or you live in the area. Bon Appetit!

Although advertised as 2.5 hours, I think we were enjoying ourselves for closer to three hours. Brian was an excellent guide. He's knowledgeable and funny, a great combo for that role. He not only introduced each eatery but also often arranged to have an employee of the establishment brief us on its history and food philosophy. There was not one weak link in the tour. All of the food items we sampled were no less than delicious, from crab tacos to barbequed ribs to gelato. In the case of the gelato, we were each allowed to choose the flavor we wanted. Between stops, Brian discussed buildings, architecture, and history along the route. This offering is a walking tour, but distances covered were reasonable for even the seniors among us. I highly recommend this tour. It's fun, and you'll come away full.

We had a wonderful time on the Arts District food tour. Brian was very knowledgeable about both the restaurants and area. The food was tasty and a pleasant variety of dishes were served. My family will definitely try another tour with this company in the future.
