Great Experience - Silvina was great! We walked around town trying different food and dishes we would never have tried otherwise. Turns out I love olives now. Excellent tapas, drinks, and got to learn a lot about the culture. She helped me with some questions and guidance outside the tour. I recommend the tour

An excellent intimate tour and introduction to the wonderful produce of Alicante - Trying the various locally produced wines and tapas was a real treat. Silvia has designed a thoughtful tour at an easy pace with a focus on local. The market was a highlight but the other stops were excellent too. Thank you!

Great wine and food tour which will also give you an amazing insight into historical and present day Alicante. - Silvina was our host and she was amazing! She was friendly, interesting and engaging. We learned lots about the history of Alicante and also what it is like to live in present day Alicante. We visited the food market which was incredible and we enjoyed the most authentic food and delicious wines. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour and would definitely recommend it.

Wonderful experience. - Wonderful guided food tour of Old Town Alicante. We experienced local tapas, drinks and sweets at several different locations, all within an easy walk. The tour was not rushed and very relaxing. Silvina was a gracious host and a wealth of knowledge. Absolutely enjoyed the tour and her company.
