Additional Info
Hello!
This is Alex from Discover Richmond Tours, and I'm so glad you'll be touring Church Hill with us! Below are some helpful tips for tour day:
MOST IMPORTANT!
Richmond is HOT in the summer, and many of our stops are still not allowing the public inside. This means limited bathroom opportunities, and lots of time spent outdoors. Please prepare for these conditions by bringing water (very important). Your guide will seek shade as often as possible, and can point you the right direction should you urgently need a bathroom when one is unavailable. Please know that we're trying to get us indoors as often as we can, but it is simply not always possible with how our restaurant partners are operating these days!
And here is everything else you might like to know:
Things To Know:
- Please wear comfortable shoes - our Church Hill tours involve about 1 mile of walking, and we'll be standing often.
- Bring a bottle of water, especially during the summer. It gets hot in Richmond!
- Gratuities for your tour guide are not required, but definitely appreciated.
- Come ready to have fun!
Weather
We tour rain or shine! If the forecast calls for rain, we suggest an umbrella an a positive attitude, and we promise the food we'll try will be as delicious as ever. In the event of dangerous weather, we will reschedule our tour.
Where to Park
Weekends in Church Hill can be busy! Be sure to take note of the signage, but on-street parking is available for free throughout the neighborhood.
