Where do I begin? Everything about this experience was wonderful. Courtney was our amazing guide. She was engaging and fun. She shared her favorite part of the farmer's market, showed us local architecture we would have never seen, and she sang to us. The tacos were all amazing and each place had a character all its own. It was like having a good friend share their favorite local spots. Thank you so much! We had an amazing time.
