"Arrive hungry. Leave full and happy."
Definitely arrive with an appetite! We were so pleased with our guide and the places we visited. The food was wonderful and varied...from poutine to ice cream...we also had a wonderful pasta bowl and a veggie bite (cauliflower) that was amazing. I think went to 6 or 7 places and the walk between helped to spread out the food and drink. There were a couple of places with stairs but otherwise an easy walk. Our guide provided a running commentary of the sights around the Gaslight district and was easy to talk with. The group was 16 but it didn't feel "too big".
This was my husband's second tour with this company and he is more than willing to go on a third. We definitely recommend this.
