5.00So much great food and interesting facts! Lindsay gave a great tour with culinary highlights on the cuisine, the restaurants/businesses and Carytown! Really enjoyed the Point Five exposure too!
Food and guide was great. The profanity on the walls at Home Sweet Home, not so great. Very offensive.

5.00My wife Kathy & I thoroughly enjoyed our Carytown Food Tour Saturday afternoon, August 2, with "Discover Richmond Food Tours" and Lindsey as our host. Lindsey instantly transformed our eight into a chatting family and off we went together. Although we thought we were already familiar with Carytown, Lindsey's extensive knowledge of the community history and great choices in new and fun eateries made the tour a delight from start to finish. And we intend to return soon with family and friends to enjoy our new Carytown favorites, most of which we likely might not have noticed but for this tour. Thank you Lindsey and Discover Richmond!
Great time in Carytown

5.00Olivia knew soooo much! She could pivot to answer any question we had. With dates, names, facts, etc. The choice of restaurants gave us a true flavor of the neighborhood. I’d love to participate in your other tours! Thank you!

5.00My tour was amazing! And round of applause to Lindsey for her knowledge and humor. Lindsey and all the restaurant partners were so accommodating on the fly and I really appreciate their professionalism. I will definitely recommend Richmond Tours to my local friends as a unique date or experience.

5.00We did this tour on a very cold day in February with Olivia. Even though it was freezing out, she did an outstanding job of keeping us interested, entertained, and laughing the whole time. Olivia is passionate about making sure her guests have a great time. She’s very knowledgeable about the restaurants and the history of the area. We found the restaurants to be very engaged as well. The food was all very well prepared and super tasty. The unexpected delight was The Mantu - the food was 10/10 and the setting is extraordinary. Highly recommend this tour and Olivia if she’s available.
