“Our tour guide was fantastic. I am sorry I forgot her name, but she has two dogs. She was so kind, and when people arrived late to the tour, she even ordered food to go so they didn't miss out. She was personable and shared just the right amount of information to make it engaging. I also want to thank her for the little gift at the end as that was very kind of her.

I swear that was an amazing drink. He has really good food option for you and gives you an estimate of how far your hotel is from these stalls in case you wanna visit again.
