This tour was incredible! Sara was very knowledgeable and her English was excellent. I’m so glad my husband and I did a private tour so we were able to do exactly what we wanted. We tried soooo many fruits and other goodies at the market. I wouldn’t have felt comfortable navigating the market by myself.

Valentina and Juan were terrific hosts. We learned about the variety of fruits & vegetables available locally, cooking, beverages, culture and daily life. We considered the time with our hosts a cultural exchange day. What a great time!
