Market Tour with Andrew

Andrew gave us a great tour. He picked us up at the hotel (private tour) and took us to many local highlights. He spoke English very well. Luckily, he had extra metro cards for the 2 of us to use, which was a nice detail. I highly recommend him and would use him again. He also took great photos!!

Sophie was a great guide. She was of course knowledgeable but also funny and engaging. We loved having the opportunity to try food and places we wouldn't have on our own. Highly recommend!
