We had a great time with Matt….he was prompt, informative, full of knowledge about the food, history and architecture and interesting points of interest along the way. . He kept our group of 12 moving along but was always able to stop to answer questions, take photos or add some additional elements to what was already an incredible tour. Do not eat BEFORE starting tour — there is so much delicious food to consume along the way!
