  • If the probability of rain is more than 70% on the day before the tour, the tour will be cancelled and a full refund will be given
  • The restaurant industry faces difficulty in hiring restaurant staff and training them because many restaurant staff had to quit or got laid off during the times of the Covid-19 pandemic.

  • You do not need to pay for the guide's food and drinks
  • Please note that the local operator is unable to guarantee allergy-free or cater to dietary restrictions as the food is prepared in kitchens that do not belong to themselves.

  • You will not be able to join the tour, get refund or reschedule if you are late for the tour and missed the group
