Istanbul’s Nightlife Tour: Local Hotspots & Culture

I'd hate to be a negative Nancy, but truth is truth. Muhammad never showed, and the company withalocal has yet to to refund me payment or get into contact with me about the issue. My friend and I met at the meeting point and called Muhammad, his phone was disconnected : / Which seems very sketchy. My advice is to call your tour guide before the actual date of tour to verify they are who they are and that they are aware of scheduled tour. The better part of me wants to believe this was very much a misunderstanding, but Muhammad contacted me after the appointment was "completed" and only replied with "Hello, dear"

Hanoi Street Food Tour: the 10 Tastings

Ruby was an excellent hostess, a nice lady, knowledgable and keen to share her city. Once she knew that we had our 9 year old daughter coming along, Ruby also arranged to bring her own 10 year old son to take sure she had company :)
The tour itself was great, walking through the hustle and bustle of Hanoi's Old Quarter and going to places that we would just not have done on our own.
The one tip I would give, is make sure you only have a light lunch because you will feast with the evenings offerings.

Singapore’s Food Tour: The 10 Tastings

Booked a local food tour with William. What an experience in Singapore. It was like catching up with an old friend and having a blast.

We toured places that we would never have ventured too and all thanks to William. He has thought of every minute detail in this trip.

Would highly recommend doing this tour with the wonderful William.
