Our guides were polite, knowledgeable, and cheerful. We felt as though we had been invited to a night out that we could have never arranged by ourselves. We were guided through throngs of tourists to slip into local favorite foodie spots. Both guides were attentive and proactive. All in our small group of six were delighted with the experience. And, yes, all of us were foodies!
