Expect a fun and delicious experience while strolling the historic downtown mall and side streets of our beautiful city. We’ll stop at multiple locations along the way, where you’ll taste the best Charlottesville has to offer– from savory bites to sweet desserts. You’ll also have the opportunity to rest your legs and savor the ambiance at each location. We’ll also do a wine tasting with a mini class, and finish up with a sweet treat. Along the way, you’ll hear some highlights of Charlottesville history and culture! Each tour is a unique experience, but to give you an idea of what may be in store…we’ve visited a quaint, French-inspired bistro, a funky tea room, a beach-themed pub, a gorgeous wine cellar, and an art-filled Oaxacan eatery!

This tour lasts between 2 1/2 to 3 hours. If you choose to add on the tequila mini-class, plan for an additional 20-30 minutes!
