What we liked most was that our tour guide is a chef and he's extremely knowledgeable about the entire area. Only thing that could be better is parking availability

The guide was wonderful food was great! I would recommend it for anyone easy walking plenty of time between stops to digest some of your food. We don’t do alcohol and it was no big deal to not do the wine tasting.
