Alice was a phenomenal tour guide, so knowledgeable in history and restaurant information. The food was all wonderful too! I really enjoyed the tour.

Tour guide Sommer was fantastic! She was really extremely knowledgeable about the areas history. Food was great. I have never taken a tour that the guide didn’t mention that “tips” were appreciated. Sommer did not, therefore receiving a larger tip. Definitely would recommend this tour.

Thoroughly enjoyed, Alice, our tour guide, was phenomenal. Very informed regarding historical events and food origins. Could have listened to Alice all day long. We hit the trifecta - history, wonderful food, and a great story teller.
