Q&A

Q: Is there a minimum age requirement for the Richmond Historian Guided Tour?

A: There's no strict age limit for the Richmond Historian Guided Tour, but it's best suited for ages 12 and up since younger kids might not find the historical details as engaging. Just keep in mind that some parts of the tour involve walking and may not be stroller-friendly. Older teens usually love it, though!

Q: What should I wear for the tour? Is it mostly indoors or outdoors?

A: You'll want to dress comfortably since the tour covers outdoor sites as well as indoor stops like historic buildings. I recommend wearing breathable layers and comfortable shoes because you'll be walking quite a bit. Check the weather for that day too—especially in Richmond, it can change quickly!

Q: Can you easily reschedule the guided tour if something comes up?

A: Yes, you can reschedule pretty easily with Old Dominion Tours, but it’s best to give them at least a 24-hour notice. They’re quite flexible and understanding, but I’d recommend checking their specific rescheduling policy on their site just to be safe. Overall, it’s been a good experience for many!
