WE LOVE FRED!
My daughter and I had a lovely evening with Fred who took us to fun non tourist neighborhoods to eat and drink. He was so kind, informative and a pleasure. We highly recommend this trip as a way to spend an evening in the beginning of your trip to find out great places to eat. We could not even finish all the drinks and food!
