I was the only person on this tour, so it was almost like a private tour. The tour content was very good and there was no pressure to buy anything which you find with many food tours. My guide was excellent. He was engaging and knowledgeable and made the morning a lot of fun.

We had an amazing time on this tour! My friend and I plus a couple from Seattle were the only four on the tour. The meeting point/time was smooth, and we learned lost of super interesting things throughout the tour. The food was insanely good, and even though we only generally had a few bites in some cases (others were more of a meal), we were STUFFED towards the end of the tour. My friend and I loved it so much that we went back to the Asian side and retraced some of our steps to have some of the same food again a few days later. Highly recommend this tour!
