Thanks for a Great and Delicious Walk! - We so enjoyed the Church Hill Food Tour! We are Richmond residents and this was a great way to discover a different neighborhood. The stops were yummy (pizza, a wine shop, hand pies, tacos and bakery treats) and interesting. Learned some Richmond history along the way. Benedict was a great guide! We would recommend to visitors and Richmonders!

Great experience for tourists AND locals. - The tour guide was great and we were definitely full at the end of the tour. Really appreciate the history we wouldn’t have known about otherwise. I’m actually living in Richmond so this tour gave me some new places to go to!

Excellent food and history tour - Brian was our tour guide. We went to 6 venues - wine shop, coffee shop, 3 ethnic restaurants and an ice cream shop. It was so much food that we honestly couldn’t finish it all. Everything was fantastic and we hope to get back to these restaurants in the future. Brian was very knowledgeable about the history of the area. We would absolutely take this tour again!

Church Hill Food Tour - Another great food tour from Discover Richmond Food Tours. Our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The small bites form the various restaurants were all very good. It is a perfect way to introduce yourself to restaurants in the Church Hill neighborhood.

Nice area for a walking tour, not a food tour - The Church Hill neighborhood was very interesting and walking through it will a guide made the tour enjoyable. The best thing about the tour was our delightful and knowledgeable guide, Olivia. The food and places we visited were nothing to write home about. One restaurant, Nile, was interesting and trying unique food was good but for the most part the other places lacked totally. We did not have places to sit and had to stand to eat/drink. Maybe this neighborhood is not the type of place to have a food tour but just a walking tour.

Average experience and honestly, not sure it was worth the cost. - My friends and I took the tour recently and Olivia was our guide. She was delightful and gave us some very interesting facts/info about the Church Hill area. In fact, she was the best thing about the tour. The restaurants that were chosen were odd. I've done over 8 walking food tours all over the world and I was disappointed in the choice of restaurants. The Ethiopian restaurant & the pizza restaurant were the best ones (food-wise). The other odd thing was that most of the places we simply stood and ate - there was no place to sit down (except at Nile). Also, we were offered food but no water and there were times I would have killed for something to drink. Lastly, very few of the stops had bathrooms and that was not a good thing. The choices of restaurants also had nothing to do with Richmond/Church Hill - in my opinion.
