Highlight of my trip! - The day started bad but the moment I spoke to Javi, I had hope! He gave a lot of very good recommendations from start to finish ! Please book this trip first time you come so that you can learn the culture, eat good food, and experience the real authenticity side of Malaga. I wish I could do more tours. He explained every dish in detail, I was able to write it down and remember. He was not talking too fast and not one moment was boring with the people I was with.

Malaga Foodie Tour - Wonderfully pleasant host, Emilio made a terrific effort to educate us about the food and wine, where it came from, how it was prepared. And the choices of venues was also very nice, always had a spot prepared for our group even though they were busy. Well organized and fun, thanks so much for the cheesecake and churro recommendations 🙏
