Don’t miss this tour - Excellent guide. We received a great overview of Zaragoza including a stop at the local market. The restaurants chosen all had tasty tapas and wine. We saw beautiful spears of white asparagus at the market and our guide gave us a wonder recommendation to a restaurant that had white asparagus. I strongly recommend this tour, as a great way to get started with knowing the city and its history.

No whining about this wine excursion - This was an incredible cultural experience! I am a non-drinker who partook on this special occasion with no regrets. We walked to four locations over the course of the tour, four places that I would never have otherwise discovered. I am unfamiliar with tapas which is why it was so helpful having a cultural guide. They were able to easily make adjustments to both the food and beverages based on the participants. The location that we met up at was central and easy to find. I would DEF do this again.

The best tour of Zaragoza! - We visited Zaragoza during the Pilar Fiestas week. We had no idea that we were arriving during the biggest annual festival in Zaragoza. The city was alive and the streets were full of people from all over the world! Jorge, our tour guide, was the most wonderful tour guide we could ever ask for! He told us about the history of Zaragoza before we embarked on our food tour which was so informative! Jorge did a great job navigating us through the city despite the crowds and he clearly had wonderful connections at each establishment that we visited. He educated us on local wines and the tapas selections paired so perfect together! His background in history and gastronomy is a perfect combination as this was one of the best tours we have ever had! We highly recommend this tour, you will not be disappointed! Thank you, Jorge for making our visit to Zaragoza memorable!

Definitely go enjoy Zaragoza with Jorge! - Had an absolutely wonderful time with Jorge! It ended up just being my partner and I going along with Jorge and without a doubt one of the best tours we've been on. He took us around old town Zaragoza and gave us a brief history as we moved from bar to bar tasting very different tapas and wines (so many delicious and different types). Plus on top of all of that, gave us a heap of recommendations for the rest of our holiday. Strongly recommend you do this tour!
