We will do our best to create a menu for you if we are given enough notice about your food allergy or dietary restriction. We will inform you in a  case where we may not be able to accommodate this.

Should I tip the tour guide?

You should consider tipping your tour guide if you had a good time! Think of your guide as a mobile restaurant server so for a $55 ticket, 18% would be about a $10 tip.
