Standing tall as the capital of Virginia, Richmond is one of America’s oldest cities renowned for its classic 18th-century prestige intertwined with modern amenities. A great example is the city’s transportation, offering quaint rides via the RVA Trolley as well as rapid bus lines through GRTC Pulse. Constantly under renovation, you’ll always have something new to see - keep up with the changes by making sure you’ve got a reliable lift for the detours, whether that means reserving a taxi to get to an event at the Greater Richmond Convention Center or booking your own private sedan, SUV, or chartered bus for exploring the forested outskirts together. With Richmond International Airport over fifteen minutes from downtown, business travelers wanting to stay close to their flight may want to consider staying at nearby hotels on both South Airport Drive and Williamsburg Road.
Filled with unique museums, homes, and landmarks, the first thing you’ll want to do when you get free time in Richmond is explore the history, from the spooky rooms within The Edgar Allan Poe Museum to the gorgeous 19th-century home lived in by famous Supreme Court justice, John Marshall. Go on a journey into the diverse world-renowned pieces that makes up the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, renowned for its millennia-old artifacts from ancient Egypt and eye-dazzling Faberge eggs. Take time to also check out the astounding American Civil War Museum, home to the largest collection of artifacts from The Confederacy as well as the famous Confederate White House, afterward complimenting the day with even more fanciful the Virginia State Capitol’s colonial-style building. Keep an open mind when dinner comes around, choosing between 1st Street’s classic southern at Mama J’s Kitchen or going simple with classic Virginia seafood from Croaker’s Spot.
