The whole trip was very interesting. My husband and I do not drink alcohol but wanted to go along for the history tour. We were the only ones on this tour, so our guide changed the drinking part to olive oil tasting. It was great. The food was fabulous.

This was a fabulous experience. We were very lucky - we were the only guests on this particular tour and our leader was Melissa, owner of this tour company. You couldn't get a better guide that Melissa! She is knowledgeable, personable, friendly, informative, we could go on and on about Melissa. And yes, the tour itself was excellent. The locations we stopped for drinks and food were great choices. We really liked the empanadas (as we were on the ala carte tour because we didn't want to eat too much, we were only going to order 2 to share. Melissa highly recommended we get at least 4 for the 2 of us -- we are glad we took her advice). We even got a "bonus" stop at an olive oil shop and were treated to another terrific experience. We give a 2-thumbs up on this tour.

Our first day in town and this tour was a great way to walk around and learn the area. Melissa was very informative and had great drink/food suggestions along the way.
