The guide was lovely and very informative. The food was a delight and surprisingly good. I’m just not sure about the timing. It was a very hot tour and moved quickly. An evening tour would be better but I understand that there may not be the variety of food that we ate.
The guide was friendly, and the food was fine. That said, the overall presentation could be enhanced, particularly by providing seating and offering napkins.
Be ready to eat. So many different small street food from the Central Market and then Lunch. Be prepared🤗😁
Karen was a great guide, very friendly, knowledgable and helpful and it was even better as we scored her by ourselves.
The tour was great. Our guide was knowledgeable and accommodating. He pointed out interesting facts and places as well as taking us to little known spots that felt very authentic.
Many different flavours, large selection, however the fruit market could also be involved. Informative pleasant guide. The trip took 1.5 hours.
Very good Tour, terrific Guide, good tasty food, the guide was very informative and shows is around food stans and shops. Good Company.
Quite an average food tour - didn’t get much in the way of information about the city - took us to a very unhygienic biryani joint at the end to boot - costs way too much relative to the quality of what’s served
It was a great experience with lots of information about country, culture and history! Would book the tour again and again!
AmThe guide was lovely but the food not overly exciting or interesting and the portions were vast. I would have liked to have learnt more about the items for sale in the market. I have been on some amazing food tours but sadly this wasn’t one of them.
