5.00Taylor was a great guide- very upbeat and informative! The 5 stops were great - a lot of different types of ethnic foods. We were so full after the tour that we never ate dinner that evening. I highly recommend this tour!

5.00Taylor was the most amazing guide for our food tour! This was our 3rd tour through the same company and Taylor was hands down the best of all. Taylor shared so much history and information about Richmond and was so personable and full of energy. The food stops were wonderful!

5.00We had a wonderful time on our food tour of the Arts District in Richmond. Taylor was our guide and she made us feel welcome from the first moment we arrived. She was filled with energy and very personable. She remembered everybody’s name and something about them…which I found very impressive. She also took time to talk with individuals as well as the whole group the entire time. We went to a great variety of places and had some great food! We also learned a lot about the area. We couldn’t asked for a more perfect day! We are already talking about going on another tour!
Awesome Food Tour!
