The most memorable part is that I had to deal with food allergies the whole time. Being told at booking that there would be no problems to end up with a possible 4 or of 6 places I might get to eat. I had to fight for getting to eat what I had paid for. The portions were small and not worth the money! Don't waste your money!!!

Taylor had so much information and she did a great good relating the food to the historical area. The restaurant choice was good and the experience was amazing. The tour has given me a better appreciation for my city. Go RVA!

Taylor was an excellent guide! She was well informed about each of the restaurants we visited, and about the history of the neighborhoods. The fried chicken and bread pudding at Buttermilk and Honey on Grace were amazing, as was the short rib egg roll at Lillie Pearl!

We would like more history and more talking to the whole group. The food, fir the most part, was just ok.

Very disappointing! Our tour guide, Sarah, was great! The food options were very blah! The first restaurant Lily Pearl was great but then it went downhill. Our next stop was an Ethiopian coffee shop. The was a soy o hospitality when we walked in. Very blah and basic. Our third stop was Mama’s, I think, had even less hospitality. We had to stand outside and eat standing up. The portions were so small and not good. The last two stop revived the tour somewhat.

The people were strange and so was our tour guide. Did not talk much. Most of the food was poor and would not ear it. Definitely NOT worth the $180 I spent for this. Never again.

Taylor is the best! We didn't just sample great food, we got a great tour of the area and so much history! Taylor is such a wealth of great info about architecture, the history of the city, the civil war - you name it! She was entertaining and fun. And the food was amazing.

Good conversations with strangers while tasting bites of delights. Walking was easy. Share your food allergies and/or needs before you arrive and they will have alternative for you prepared. 😉
