I have now done 5 tours with Amy and her team. Each one is a unique way to explore new places, enjoying delicious food and drink and learning new things along the way. The tours are a wonderful mix of local businesses and offer something new each time. The team are informative, interesting and somehow manage to keep everyone included and engaged. If you have never done a food tour before book one now and if you’re a food tour lover Triple A will become one your favourites. - isthebates (TripAdvisor name)
What an excellent afternoon - I am so glad I booked. There was only 2 couples and myself and our lovely guide, Andrew. The restaurants we visited were wonderful and we tried a range of food and drink. It was such good value for money and I went back to the lovely Tapas bar the next night for my supper. I would thoroughly recommend this! - Amanda
Done the tour of the tunnels today with my wife, I've lived in the area all my life and never knew they existed. The tour guide Mick was very knowledgeable, told great stories of how it would have been. Totally enjoyed all of it, time flew by - Joe
