      It was a great...

      Shante_C, Feb 2026
      It was a great experience. My tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area and the food. When walking around the open air market he knew just about all the things there and I was able to learn more about what they eat and some things I eat but had no idea what it looked like. During the walking tour we went to where the locals ate so to me the food was very good and authentic as opposed to the busy tourist area. He also pointed out areas such as the hotel where the first Cesar salad was made and the red lights district was. Not only did I learn about the food but the history as well, it was a great experience

      Great food and walking tour.

      This was an amazing walking tour. Plenty of great local food and Albert knows a lot about the town. Albert made it super easy to meet up and walk across the border and he got us back. He made the whole process super easy and fun. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone.
