Amazing food tour! - My guide for this tour was Rajan and let me tell you, he made the trip great! He took his time to explain the city, it's history, and brought me to the best food stops. I had a chance to try food that I wouldn't normally pick, and it was all great! This was so much fun and I recommend to anyone!

Fun day at Kellysbay! - This is my 5th time coming here! I enjoy bringing people over as it's worth it for the price and there's a lot of things to do. I would suggest you check out their Facebook page, you can message them through Facebook Messenger to get a booking. If not you can WhatsApp them, you can get their number from the Facebook page.

Tasty and information - Rayhan was a good guide, friendly and knowledgeable. I tried a few new foods and only sorry it was a solo tour, as I feel you get to try and share more foods when it is a group of people. Had the best roti I have had on my trip so far. Whilst not included on the "menu", I purchased Bakkwa to try which was delicious - both the bacon and the pressed square bbq meats.
