Not Just a Tour...an experience of local flavors - This was a great culinary and cultural experience. Tefadhadli took us to enjoy some wonderful food throughout the city. He thought about each stop and tailored the experience to what our expectations were for the tour. Out our started at 11a. He arrived promptly and we started at Truth for coffee and breakfast (tea since I don't drink coffee), next the Sunday farmer's market for this amazing burger and chips and finally at Mama Africa for more traditional Adrian dishes. He even added a few cultural experience along the way like the streets with multicolored house (explaining its history) and Mojo Market, a local food hall full of food and live entertainment. This was a great tour to take around South Africa.
