I would highly recommend this tour, gives you an excellent background on foods and history of the city. Take a food tour first thing when you get into the city so you can explore with the knowledge you gain from the tour. That was very helpful.

Very happy with the tour. Another tour guide got sick or something, so we had 17 people instead of 12 or less. But our tour guide handled it well and it was a good group of people, which enhanced the experience. The food and wine was excellent and all the people with the establishments visited were friendly and efficient. One of the better food tours we have done.
