    Fun trip through street markets and hand picked stops from the guide. Food was prepared for us as we arrived so it was very freshly prepared. They had some choices we never would have chosen on our own.

    Wonderful tour. The guide was very personable and knowledgeable and gave a great local perspective. He knew all of the street vendors personally and was very friendly. It was a nice way to spend part of the afternoon.
