Fantastic experience with a top local company. - First class guide with great knowledge and really good fun. We were welcomed at each location with reserved seating and food prepared. Manuel, our guide, was informative about the local history and also a really nice guy, he joined in the fun and made it a great night out for us. Would 100% do this again and highly recommend to anyone wanting to start their trip with a first class night out.

Relaxed tapas, wine and stories walk - Gina was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and given I visited in shoulder season, the group was smaller but we had more fun with less busy venues and streets. It was great to learn about every tapas and wine we had, with local stories to accompany. We had a different variety of Tapas at each venue (the venue's speciality) with a choice of wine. Gina also gave recommendations on local markets and where to find our favourite tapas ingredients and wines. Thanks for such a great evening. Highly recommend this tour and I might do it again when I come back!
