5.00We turned up on a very cold and snowy January day and our guide, Sean D, met us with warmth and energy. We spent several hours sampling amazing food and hearing tales of the area and its history. A phenomenal experience and Sean’s passion and knowledge made the experience. The cannolis were a highlight! I absolutely recommend the tour and thanks again Sean!
