Food tour in malaga - We had a fantastic afternoon with our knowledgeable,friendly and enthusiastic guide Rosario. We experienced fresh and local food from the market ( which we returned to the next day as was superb) and were taken to some of Malagas finest and authentic eateries. Our favourite was the anchovies in vinegar and tortilla. Each tapas was served with a recommended wine. A meal and a look around el Pimpi is a must in malaga. Rosario gave us a wonderful introduction to Malaga and would highly recommend.

Authentic food, wine, history tour ! Highly recommend this ! - Our host Angela was amazing! Fabulous personality for the job! We had the added bonus of being on our own so could ask lots of questions,which was also very interesting.
We visited several places along the way stopping at a few for food drinks or both and hearing about the history behind many of the buildings
This tour was very good value and would highly recommend Angela ! would not hesitate to come back again 😘

A Flavorful Tour of Málaga with the Amazing Rosario! - We had an absolutely fantastic time on our food and market tour in Málaga with Rosario! From the moment we arrived at the easy-to-find meeting spot, we knew we were in great hands. Rosario brought so much energy, passion, and personality to the experience—she’s spunky, warm, and just an all-around wonderful human!
Her knowledge of Málaga’s history, culture, and culinary scene was impressive, and she made every stop feel personal and engaging. She was incredibly thoughtful with our group, especially with my niece, who’s not a big seafood fan—Rosario found delicious local alternatives and even encouraged her to try something new like goat, which she ended up loving!
Beyond the tour itself, Rosario made us feel like friends. She shared stories about her family, hiking the El Camino yearly, her love of flamenco dancing, and how she returned to guiding with so much heart. She even followed up with personalized recommendations for the rest of our trip.
If you're in Málaga and want a fun, informative, and genuinely memorable experience, book a tour with Rosario—you won’t regret it!

The BEST food experience in Malaga - What an amazing experience and a wonderful wonderful host! Amazing foods and history and inside information was shared a complete delight. My son who is 12 absolutely loved it and we would highly recommend and would definitely do it again. The quality of the food and the amount of food was in intent, but absolutely worth every penny.
