History
Knowledge is wealth and our mission is to share the wealth while entertaining. When the Richmond Tour Guys was started in 2014, Richmond had no weekly walking tour that surveyed the history of the entire city. Walking through Richmond, it is easy to glance over an old building without giving it a second thought. Our goal is to provide insight into these old buildings, into the city, and tell the fun stories that combine to define RVA narrative
