Richmond Downtown Walking Tour

Our tour guide, Kathy, did a wonderful job! She was a local who knew the local history and had done her homework. The headsets were a great idea, so that you could hear the guide talk above the traffic. Well worth the price.

It was a great experience and Doug was a very knowledgeable guide. We would recommend this to anyone.

My wife and I took a private walking tour tour with Ray. He is extremely knowledgeable and personable. We learned about Richmond’s rich history and gained an appreciation for its architecture. He welcomed any and all questions. We highly recommend Richmond Tour Guides!

Our tour in February was an anomaly. Richmond Tour Guys does not operate tours during the winter. But a glitch in the website allowed me to book a tour. Rather than canceling on us, the owner, Ray, gave us the tour himself.

Ray has decades of tour-giving experience in multiple places and capacities. His experience shone in the stories he told, the vast information he conveyed in those stories, the passion he has for Richmond, and his knowledge not only of Richmond's history but of the current happenings as well. Ray generously offered recommendations and answered all our questions.

We could tell Ray has high standards for the tours under the Richmond Guys brand and we would happily take another, knowing we'd have a wonderful experience.

We learned so much on this tour! Our tour guide Ray, was very informative and well versed in the history of Richmond. Definitely enjoyed our time. The time was well worth it and would highly recommend to others.

Erin was a great guide, very knowledgeable about the city. We enjoyed the tour and learned a lot about the city. Would very much recommend this tour.

Daug was very good and knowledgeable about the history of Richmond., I truly enjoyed it the tour. Doing the tour in the fall it’s a beautiful and a easy walk since is cooler.

The rich history and beauty of Richmond. Our guide had clarity and patience throughout the tour, and offered insight into other activities around the city that we could also enjoy

Great walking tour of downtown Richmond. Kathy our guide was awesome. She’s very knowledgeable and friendly. It’s a great way to brush up on America’s history and learn new things. Great tour. Highly recommend. Thanks Kathy.

Jason was knowledgable and interesting.
There’s no need for me to write an essay. Just come see for yourself.

Emily was an excellent tour guide. The tour lasted approximately 2 hours and was very informative. Emily had a great grasp of Richmond’s history and architecture .

our guide Justin(?) was very knowledgeable and passionate about early Richmond history and I learned a lot about the founding of our country! We were only in town for the day and it was worthwhile if you want to know anything about the history of the city!

What a great tour! Our guide Emily was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Two of us were visiting Richmond for our 90 yr old Aunt's birthday. Our Aunt with her cane was able to walk it all. We would walk a few blocks, stop for some history and be able to sit at a bench. I highly recommend this tour, so much history in the area. Can't say enough good things. Thank you Emily and all who coordinate this.

We enjoyed our Richmond Downtown Walking Tour. We learned a lot about the history - from stories about Abraham Lincoln coming to Richmond and visiting the Confederate White House after the fall of Richmond, to the Capital Building and monuments at the Capital, and the insidious history of slavery in Richmond. The trip takes about 100 minutes and was a lot of fun.

Although it was unseasonably chilly, our group totally enjoyed this tour. Our guide , Kathy, was so knowledgeable, and gave us a real flavor of the history of the city.

Jason was awesome! He has a thorough knowledge of Richmond’s history, and shared compelling stories of the historical figures and buildings.
The price was an excellent value.

Jason our tour guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining . We have told others about our experience.
