Excellent food tour. Just the right amount of food and length.

lkrosky, Aug 2026
Daniel was a great tour guide. Communication was great and he worked with us on rescheduling when we had a delay on arrival. Communication was very prompt and great. It was very much appreciated. The food and venues we visited were all very nice. Food suggestions were all so good. He was very professional and flexible with our food choices. The knowledge of the area and town were an added bonus as he is a local resident. I would 100% recommend Daniel for this tour.

A great tour!

Scam!

Olena_K, Dec 2025
This is scam, they cancell full paid booking in less than 24 hours!!! No feedback. Nobody don’t pick up the phone. The option to change data - not working in aplication. I don’t advise nobody to have such negativ experience in your vacation

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Hey, Olena. Hope you are ok. As I explained to you, I had to cancel due to the restaurants being closed on the 24th of december. They don’t post the definite time that they are openin advance, so there was no way I could have predicted this. I cancelled on the 23rd, the day you responded to my message, not the day of the tour. You immediately received a notification stating that a refund was issued, so it is not a SCAM! Misleading information in a review that hurt small businesses are ilegal by law, so I advise you to reconsider your posting.
