Mags was such a delight! She had wonderful insights to share and was so knowledgeable about the area and the food. She even recommended other places to eat and get good drinks in the area where our hotel was located. The tour was so lighthearted, and the food was great. We loved the variety of dishes and beverages. We would highly recommend and will try another neighbor food tour when we are back in San Deigo!
