“Navia was an absolutely brilliant guide and showed us such interesting places that we would otherwise have missed! The creepy stories really were creepy and the most recent (I won’t spoil it for others) really got us scared! We had laughs and a really memorable experience.

We also had to walk a very long way to get to 2 of the 5 establishments on the tour. Other food tours we've done were more compact in their route which…”
