Delightful food tour through the Christmas markets
We had a great time with Virginie tasting our way through the Capital of Christmas. We opted for the full gourmet tour and it was so much more than just the food. She’s very knowledgeable and obviously loves her city. Highly recommend! Lesley V., December 2016
