“I really liked this food tour. The tour guide, Lara, was very helpful. I appreciate all the history of the area she gave. I didn't know beforehand, but I was the only person to sign up. The tour company still went ahead and set up a guide for me rather than just canceling. That was nice and unexpected. One minor note though, tour does not end at starting point. It actually ended a little over a km away (at a fantastic ice cream shop). It worked out. Lara walked most of the way back with me and made sure I could find my hotel.”

He gave us advice about other activities and was flexible & accommodating with our itinerary. All-in-all he’s an excellent host, very personable and a good communicator. I appreciated his sense of humor (lots of laughs) and kindness. Above all—the food that we ate was YUMMY! The San Telmo market was a highlight—I highly recommend it, and Fred. I wish I had taken a full-day city tour with him in addition to the food tour.”
