After having to cancel due to weather, River City made it very easy to reschedule. Our guide Kathryn was knowledgeable, fun, and very patient!! We made five stops and each one was unique and excellent. We receive interesting facts about the restaurants and the surrounding architecture. We met several of the owners of the restaurants who shared their stories. This was my second food tour, first in Richmond. I can't wait to come back to River City Tours to try another tour.

L., I was so happy to see you reschedule with us (and you ended up with a de facto private tour)! Kathryn told me that we ended of trying some of your favorite desserts - awesome! See you next time! - Brian

My wife and I went on the CaryTown Food Tour and had a wonderful time! Even after living in Richmond for a year and a half and driving down Cary St numerous times we went to six awesome restaurants/cafes that we'd never been to before! The food was incredible and the tour guides were great! We loved meeting the other groups on our tour as well!

M., that's so cool that all six stops were new to you! My goal is for everyone to find a new place they can't wait to go back to - sounds like you have several! I'm so glad you enjoyed the company of the other guests as well, we did have a pretty fun group last weekend! - Brian

Had a group of about ten of us on a work outing. Went to some amazing restaurants and tasted some wonderful food. Definitely loved meeting Claudio of 10 Italian and learning of his history! Can Can was delectable! We were so full by the time we finished that I took my dessert from Carytown Cupcakes home with me! Would definitely do this again!

Patti, thanks for the kind words! Jill told me independently that your group seemed to really be enamored with Claudio, so I'm glad to hear it from both sides (and Claudio certainly didn't mind the audience, either!). I hope you got to enjoy that cupcake eventually! - Brian
