Guyan is a delightful and informative guide. She explained about the foods and even talked me through how to make one of the meat pilafs.
I was the only one which is a little uncomfortable to be the only one eating at the table but she was gracious and kept the conversation alive. The funny thing is, the next day on the first day of my official 13 day tour, they brought us to lunch at the same restaurant. All the options and both tours go to the same place! What are the odds of that.
We ended our day leisurely drinking tea in a delightful outdoor cafe by the Maiden’s Tower.

Super nice tour with a very friendly young host that spoke excellent English. The food was overall good and the closing tea at the boulevard was great.
