Es de esas cosas que uno recuerda años después. Muy bueno para una primera vez en la ciudad. La atención previa a la reserva fue muy clara con todas nuestras dudas. Lo recomendaría a cualquiera que visite Auckland.

Vale muito mais do que custa. Comparando com fazer por conta própria, compensa. O salão de The Gourmet Food and Wine Foxwoods é uma joia em si. Tudo bem sinalizado e a equipe atenta. Nos colocaram numa mesa com ótima visão do palco. As mesas ficam um pouco juntas. Recomendo sem pensar.

Buena elección si es tu primera vez en Auckland. Sale más que hacerlo suelto, pero te ahorra toda la organización. El audio se cortaba en un par de tramos. Vale la pena, sabiendo lo anterior.

Delivered everything it promised and then some. We would never have made it to The Gourmet Food and Wine on our own.

Fue el mejor día de nuestro viaje a Auckland. Ojo con el calzado, conviene algo con buen agarre. Muy prolijos con los horarios. Llegar a Auckland fue impresionante.

Nos sorprendió para bien. Muy bien el detalle de recorrido panorámico comentado por un guía local en inglés. Cambiamos la fecha dos días antes y no hubo ningún problema. Todo el trámite fue por WhatsApp, muy práctico. Sale más que hacerlo suelto, pero te ahorra toda la organización. Éramos varios y no alcanzaron los asientos juntos. Ya lo recomendé a dos amigos que viajan el mes que viene.
