Lotta food, popular spots

Lehman_W, Oct 2022

Rob was a wonderful tour guide and presented 5 local UVA haunts. He warned us to be hungry! Truly, he was not jesting. The tour included Bobo’s, a popular Chinese restaurant, a Lebanese fast food restaurant, The White Spot..for a taste of a “Gus burger” and a wings joint. We were so full we had to bud the wings to go. He also showed us the memorial to the slaves at UVA that was made by the same person who crafted the Vietnam memorial in D.C. Your tour guide could also be Cindy, a 2nd year student at UVA as he is training her to do tours as well. Lot of history, helpful if you visited Monticello prior to the tour.

Thanks Lehman. Loved being with you and Cathie. Come see us again in Charlottesville!

Charlottesville Anniversary Weekend Trip

Carrie_G, Aug 2022

Rob was an excellent tour guide! The local knowledge made it a personalized experience for sure. The food was great, albeit more than we could reasonably eat, even though we arrived hungry! Thanks again!

Wonderful food tour! A+

Rebecca_C, Jul 2022

This tour was top notch and exceeded our expectations. Rob was an excellent tour guide and extremely knowledgeable about Charlottesville. We went to five different restaurants at “The Corner”. The portions were very large so definitely come hungry-we were able to take some leftovers home. The tour was about three hours and included some walking on UVA’s campus. Great way to eat delicious food & learn about Charlottesville!
