Please realize this is not some slick guided tour, but in fact will be a working tour with some fun thrown in between friends, We really are going on a purchasing and buying trip to working warehouses that you would otherwise never have a chance to see.

For those of you who are interested in buying large quantities (for items which will not fit in your suitcase), we can also help you thru the steps to arrange for shipping and figuring out the customs fees back to the USA.

You will need to be healthy and fit. We will be walking a lot all over town. You WILL NEED to wear comfortable walking shoes!
