Max was happy to share local intel, along with excellent food and venue history. Train St was suddenly closed by police so visited the following afternoon independently.

Our guide, Luke, was exceptional. He brought us to local restaurants for our tastings. One was Michelin. Truly a tremendous experience. Luke was kind, courteous, funny, and took great photos! Come with an appetite. We actually did not eat after this tour we were so full.

Rik Long is a wonderful guide with a positive personality. He brought us to try 8 local dishes, all delicious. We ended the night relaxing and watching the train go by. Rik responsibly ensured we were safely on our way back after as well.
