Disappointing - I’ve done loads of these food tours and found this one to be quite disappointing and very expensive - had 3 small savoury snacks, 1 sweet snack and a cup of tea. Maybe 3 or 400 rupees in total. Yet the cost was close to 5000. Which would have been fine if the guide had been more engaged or attentive. The Tour lasted only just over 1 hour - so I feel like only for half the experience? Guide seemed to in a real rush to finish and didnt really explain where we were going or what the options were. He spent more trying to sell me another Tour than explaining this one! The food itself was all superb btw!
