    My husband and I had a great time on this tour with guides Sky and Todd. They were friendly, knowledgeable, super popular in the market and so fun. Loved the variety of foods (donuts, cherries, chowder, etc.) the history of the market and them pointing out other vendors to try. You could tell by the way the vendors greeted the guides that they have a great partnership with the market vendors and a joint love for their community. Sky and Todd also provided great recommendations for after our tour. 10/10 would recommend!

    It was easy to find the tour starting point, Matt and Todd were very welcoming and entertaining and remembered all our names! The food was chosen to reflect the diversity of the Market and the quality was consistently high. We got a real sense that the guys cared about the place - it wasn’t just a job. We went back the next day to explore more of the market - inspired-by the tour.
