This tour was truly excellent. Robert is a fantastic tour guide, and the food was delicious. I was delighted to taste some dishes that I wouldn't have otherwise known about, and learn the history of old favorites. Robert's deep knowledge of the area and the people who live and work there makes this a very special tour. The places we visited weren't the typical tourist traps, which was especially cool.
