What's the difference between Bella Vista and other Santiago neighbourhoods we'll visit?

Is okay only. a fish taco from a tiny street stall was nice but feel rush, and Leila the host hard to hear sometimes. The food tour in Athens was more better.

our host Diego had so many stories and a glass of the local red was the highlight. For our anniversary so it wasnt too busy. Ideal with kids (ours are 6 and 9), and rolled home properly stuffed, and we hit 6 tastings. Would book again no question.

our host Hassan had so many stories and the warm baklava at the last stop was the highlight, and miles ahead of a similar food tour we tried in Kyoto.
