Overall an excellent few hours in Richmond. - Weather was fantastic after a long period of wintry weather. The driver shared lots of helpful information about the past, current locations, places of interest and where to find scallop pies and yummy ice cream! Though it wasn’t what I wanted to do, there were side trips available which sounded interesting. I enjoyed visiting what was of interest to me rather than being locked into a set agenda.

Good - The trip covered what was promised and I had a great time. The guide was helpful and accomodating. The 20 minute delay in pick up time at the start was not ideal however.

Enjoyable experience. - Good shuttle service meandering through the Coal River Valley to the old town of Richmond which takes in a couple of hours meandering the main street with plenty of interesting stores a food outlets to keep you occupied for the duration of your visit. You can have a side vist to the wicked cheese shop as well for tastings. Most enjoyable afternoon visit.
