Richmond Unscripted
A bus tour of Richmond’s most unusual, unexpected, and humorous stories — history with a twist!
by Discover Richmond Tours
Richmond Like You’ve Never Heard It Before
History doesn’t have to be dry, and this tour proves it. Richmond Unscripted is a 90-minute, high-energy ride through Richmond’s lesser-known past—the kinds of stories that might make you laugh, raise an eyebrow, or wonder how on earth you’ve never heard them before.
Led by an expert guide who knows how to keep things fun, this tour is all about the characters, quirks, and curveballs of Richmond’s history. We’ll cover bold ideas, big personalities, and moments that shaped the city in ways you never expected. No war battles or textbook recitations here—just great storytelling, unexpected insights, and a good time.
And because every great story is even better with a drink, we start and end at one of Richmond’s best breweries.
Tour Highlights:
- Unfiltered Richmond – The fascinating side of the city’s history that most people don’t know.
- No Boring Stories – Fun, engaging tales that might make you rethink what you thought you knew.
- A Comfortable Ride – A guided experience from the comfort of our 14-passenger bus.
