We had visitors in from out of town and this was the absolute perfect thing to do with them!! Our tour guide was very interesting and full of lots of great stories and facts about Richmond!! We will absolutely do this again and recommend it to everyone we know!!

We were late getting picked up for the tour. But the tour ended up being excellent! I would go again.

Guide was knowledgeable but spoke very quickly. vehicle used is not very comfortable for older folks and especially on cobblestone streets. No AC on a hot/humid day and direct sun can make you even hotter when stopped. No actual stops (couldn’t exit vehicles) to allow pictures at all was not expected. I left 2 message at number sent to me to confirm a few requests but no one ever returned my call!

We had an amazing time touring RVA’s distilleries with Bobby. He was a fantastic guide full of local information from history and culture, to music, food and drink. Fantastic way to see the city, sample some great beverages and it’s great having everything included in the cost and not having to worry about having to pay/close out tabs each stop. A great day!

This was a really cool thing to do on Mother’s Day. Annie was our tour guide and she was terrific. Great customer service and she was extremely knowledgeable about Richmond. We live close to the city and have some familiarity with it, but we still learned a lot. It was a great way to see the city. The “car” seats six and we had five folks and none of us are small-two fluffy women, one teenager and two tall husky dudes and we were comfortable. We will do a tour again.

Our guide, Bobby, was very knowledgeable and entertaining. I recommend this fun way to see the city! The tour can be customized to focus on your areas of interest. Definitely worth the time.

This was an amazing way to explore our city with friends. Bobby, our driver, was absolutely amazing! He had lots of great tip on other places we could visit for food and drinks! He was super fun and accommodating! We will definitely be going back to do another one! Highly recommend and ask for BOBBY!

Loved seeing the city, our guide Bobby was very knowledgeable and gave a great tour!! I am Already thinking about next the next tour I want to take with Tuk Tuk of Richmond.

Annie took us on a tour of the murals and public art. She was an absolute wealth of information, told us about the Edgar Allen Poe tour, some of his highlights, some Richmond history, explained the neighborhoods, and in general left us feeling we should have started taking these tours when our son first started college. We would have enjoyed Richmond so much more when we visited. Annie was a great guide, chatty, personable. It wasn’t a canned recitation. She knew her art. Anyway, an absolute highlight. Thanks!
