Tour guide tore sandwich with bare hands as she handed us pieces. This made a few guests uncomfortable. No sanitizer offered or used. After 1 hour and 20 minutes of walking and standing in hot sun, we tried second dish we had to eat standing at metro. The guide was hard to hear and understand and did not clearly communicate what we doing and why. Not interesting or engaging. Five of us…”
