“Enjoyed our walking tour. Nice to taste local food and cider and warm drinks and visit a few of the more local legit markets. My travel friend was saying we weren’t going to the big markets and second guessing me. Did I prove her wrong. These were the “right” markets to go to to get the legit feel rather than over commercialized experience. Loved our guide.”
