If I could add pluses I would. Don’t eat before you go! The food and drinks are delicious. Everyone was very nice. My guide, Celia, explained all what I was having, was very pleasant and even walked with me back towards my hotel. I love learning the culture through the food. If I’m back near Garibaldi Square, I’ll be stopping in for more! The meeting place was easy to find and Celia was there early with her flag to meet me. At the end of the night she also shared with me a surprise. I won’t spoil your surprise by telling you what it was. I highly recommend this experience.

Our tour guide was fantastic, really informative and answered any questions the group had, highly recommend this if you want to see and try the local food and drink. You'll discover some hidden gems along the way. Its no joke when the reviews say come hungry as there's so much to try. Would absolutely book this again, we had so much fun with the guide and others who also booked onto the tour.

An amazing tour

Geoffrey_T, Jul 2018
First i want to say our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. If you take this tour make sure you meet in the plaza right at the gate entrance(the description just says plaza) other then that the description of this tour is spot on, you walk though the city and then the church grounds. There is one thing that the description needs to be more clear on, if you want to go up into the tower you need to email or call the guide.

Leckere Tour mit Celia

benno_m, Oct 2024
Ich hatte das, Glück der einzige Gast gewesen zu sein und war natürlich schon was anderes. Celia war pünktlich am Treffpunkt und genossen erstmal ein Aperitif zusammen und dazu paar lokale Köstlichkeiten. Dann ging es dann durch Gassen wo wir an weiteren Stationen halt gemacht haben und wieder gegessen haben. Also bitte vor der Tour besser nicht essen denn es gibt genug. Zum Schluß gab es noch ein Donat und dann war es auch leider vorbei. Danke Celia du warst super.♥️
