Marshall was a great tour guide- she was very relaxed and friendly. In addition to the food tour stops, she shared interesting facts about the neighborhood and important buildings in the area. She moved the tour at a good pace and we were given a good amount of time at each stop to make purchases. Highly recommend!

Marshall made this tour every ounce of fabulous, she had the right balance of facts and fun. We enjoyed this more than any other tour we did (we did three). The foodie locations and neighbour facts were a good balance, had it gone more either way it wouldnā€™t have worked. Marshall we will tell everyone else know to come see you
