We had an amazing day with Jon. The food was incredible and from very diverse countries. We ended at a brew pub with good beer and wine. Jon is very personable and is very knowledgable about Wellington, New Zealand and Australia. He customized our tour to our tastes and even added some sightseeing. Great day, great guy. Highly recommend. Garth and Ginny from Delaware.
