My 14 yr old son and I did this tour and we both really enjoyed it. Teka was an excellent guide - informative, vibrant and humorous. We learned a lot, we ate even more (holy cow, come hungry). Enjoyed the stories about each restaurant/owners, the history around the area and seeing sights off the beaten path. Thanks for a fun afternoon!
