Thank you Miracle for a great food tour! Lots of stops, excellent snacks and drinks, and great Chennai info. Miracle was a caring and communicative guide who tailored the evening to my tastes and even helped me arrange my transportation back to the hotel afterwards.

It was fascinating to experience the hustle and bustle of the Georgetown market area! Such a crush of people, cars, tuk tuks, bikes, scooters, dogs, even horse drawn carts. The food part of the tour was ok, tasty for sure, but we were surprised to still be hungry- there just weren’t very many stops and the last stop was the same as the first. The sweets shop was a tour highlight. Our guide was organized, enthusiastic, and warm but the tour wasn’t super informative because we spent most of the time navigating the streets and not talking with him. We are glad we went.

The tour through the area was terrific! We did not feel comfortable with several of the sites in terms of use of local water and overall cleanliness. The guide was struggling because there was a national celebration and several of the planned sites were closed. We conveyed this to the guide but it was a challenging day.
