Tolles Erlebnis!
Inzwischen haben wir einige Food-Touren in verschiedenen Ländern unternommen. Auch diese Tour hat nicht enttäuscht. Man lernt wirklich versteckte Schätze kennen, angefangen von Kaffeespezialitäten über traditionelle Küche aus Costa Rica bis hin zu modernem und neu interpretiertem Essen. Nebenbei erfährt man viel über Kultur und Alltag. Die Buchung war ganz unkompliziert, der Kontakt schnell und komfortabel. Rundum empfehlenswert!
