Great food and conversation. - You will taste a variety of good food while learning about the city. We visited five different restaurants. The walk isnt difficult even for someone who is 70. I would recommend this tour.

Definitely an excursion worth doing! - Taylor was the best guide we have ever had. She was super knowledgeable and taught us things about Richmond we didn’t know….even though we have lived here for 13 years! She was a great communicator and we were able to sample foods from restaurants that have been in our list for years. Definitely recommend whether you live near Richmond or are out of town. An A+ experience all the way around!

Awesome food tour - Our tour guide Taylor was absolutely fantastic. She was informative and entertaining and my sisters and I really enjoyed spending three hours with her. We were really lucky to have just a small group with my two sisters and I. Taylor took us to six (!) different restaurants and the food was all fantastic and diverse. We would highly recommend the trip. Taylor’s engaging personality made it really special.

Great food and guide - Great food at each stop. For only five stops three hours was too long. Also we prefer that the end point be closer to the starting point for parking and other logistics. Overall a very good experience!

Food tour - Taylor was a great guide and very helpful when we realized we had double booked. the food was great, I could have stayed at Mama J's that was the best food. The catfish was excellent. The wood fired pizza was delicious, and the fish tacos were great. To end with the wonderful Beignets yummy. Other than the rain and being wet it was a fun time.
