Richmond comes alive in a whole new way with these tours, and the guides consistently steal the show. Names like Jenny, Aidan, Rachel, Julie, and Melissa pop up repeatedly for their deep knowledge of the city's history and their ability to make the experience genuinely fun. Whether you're exploring Hollywood Cemetery's hills, gliding past murals and landmarks, or riding the historic trolley through cobblestone streets, the guides share their passion for Richmond in a way that resonates with both first-time visitors and locals discovering new corners of their own city. The variety here is impressive. Segway tours tackle everything from historic districts to cemetery tours, while the trolley offers a comfortable way to cover more ground with expert narration. E-bike rentals provide another option for independent exploration. Training is thorough for the Segways, so even nervous first-timers feel comfortable quickly. The occasional equipment hiccup gets resolved fast by the helpful staff. Multiple reviewers mention learning something new about Richmond, and the consensus is clear: this is a fantastic way to orient yourself to the city while having a genuinely good time.
This was a very enjoyable tour indeed. Our tour guide Melissa was not only very informative but seem to thoroughly love Richmond. She shared many stories and anecdotes of the history of Richmond and made the 2 hours fly by. Highly recommend this outing!
