We were delighted with Valentina and the wonderful history she provided us about the area, as well as her enthusiasm and knowledge about the local food traditions and meanings. We had a perfect evening where she made an effort to include all of us, including one vegetarian and one teenager. It was a great intro to our trip.

Our family loved this tour! We have twin 21-year old boys and we brought one of their friends as well. The restaurants, tapas and wine were fantastic! Nika was our guide, and she was so knowledgeable and so much fun as well. She really did make our tour the best it could be! We highly recommend this tour. Thank you!

The meeting point was very easy to find. A 5 minute walk from the H10Cubik. Guide was very open and friendly. The quality of the food could have been better but at the same time, it was a very enjoyable evening. About 10 and the guide in our group.
