Great hike. Guide was very pleasant and extremely knowledgeable. Only complaint would be is the address that was given was very confusing. Even the Uber driver couldn’t figure it out. Fortunately we had gone early so we were able to figure it out and show up on time.

I'm glad you had a good time, Debbie! As for the address - the parking lot meeting point doesn't have a good address. When you book with us directly, we send you a Google Maps link with a pin on the exact spot - easy to use! You booked through Viator, and they do not let us include links in those confirmations, so we are unable to send it. Cheers, Brian, Discover Richmond Tours

Worked with Brian (the owner) on creating a private walking tour that was on our travel schedule, pace and interests. He was super responsive and found the perfect guide to show us around. Erin was our tour guide and was very personable, made the tour a lot of fun and kept things going at our pace as requested. She provided just the right amount of history of the area and things we were looking at along the tour. It was neat to see and experience things that Richmond has right in town that most tourists would probably just overlook. It's a fun way to enjoy the outdoors, the peacefulness of walking on the shaded trails, learning a bit about Richmond as well as enjoying great views of the River. Unfortunately, we weren't in town long enough to enjoy their food tour that they also offer - but will definitely do that next time in the area. Thanks Brian & Erin.
