Recent travel review

John was a great tour guide – very friendly/bubbly personality, spoke English well, and had great explanations of food/history/culture along the way. The food selected was also good (the amount and types) and I liked that John asked for our preferences and what we’ve had before so we could try new dishes. Overall, I’d recommend this food tour of Connek Trip. – Mr. Martin
