Really enjoyed the variety and amount of food we tried on this tour. Hour guide Wind was lovely and she made sure everyone had plenty and any special dietary needs were met. We learnt about history and culture of the food and restaurants/markets/tea shops and more. Highly recommend.

This was such a great way to see places you would never find yourself. We are lots of delicious food and we’re very full by the end so I recommend making sure you are hungry before you start the tour. Wind was a really informative guide and always made sure everyone in the group was happy.
