This was a very disappointing experience. Our tour guide was late, and when she arrived and checked everyone's names, she repeatedly asked for our names and told me several times that we did not have tickets for this food tour, which we very much did. On the tour itself, it felt more that we were being babysat from one location to the next more than anything else. Our guide did not do much explaining of the foods and drinks we ate, the area we were in, the culture, etc., which is what you expect to get on a tour. She mostly just sat with us not saying much, and us and the others on the tour talked to each other about the countries we were from. She was not rude, but she wasn't very friendly or personable. Very disappointed, especially with how much this food tour costs. I have done a few food tours in different countries, and this one was the most expensive and the lamest. I'd highly recommend anyone who would like to do a food tour, to look for a different company to go through. AirBnb has very good prices for food tours that seem to be similar in area/tour length, and I wish we had done this instead.
