Great with teenagers! - We had a fabulous experience with Mercedes! We were traveling with our two teenage daughters and they were skeptical that they would be entertained for 3 to 4 hours on a food walking tour. They loved it! We were stuffed by the end of the tour and felt like we had seen so many wonderful parts of the city. Our tour guide Mercedes was lovely and gave us so much great information about the April fair.

Best of Seville - I wish we took this tour earlier! Manuel was an incredible guide for our introduction to the food and neighborhoods of Seville.
Not only did we learn about the Iberca ham and how it is rated, but we got historical and architectural lesson as well.
I highly recommend this tour. And Manuel if you can get him!

Excellent tour with excellent guide! - A small group lead by the fantastic Elena. Great variety of places visited and all traditional/family run.
Found the information Elena shared very interesting and I left with a better understanding of Seville's history and traditions.
Would definitely use Devour again in another city and happily recommend the Seville tour!

Excellent food tour - Very enjoyable food tour. Alex, the guide, set a good pace and was generous in sharing his knowledge of the city. Good sized group of 8. We got plenty of food and also some vermouth, manzanilla and wine to drink. We learnt so much. We were so full did not eat for the rest of the day and had to retire to the hotel’s sunloungers for a snooze mid afternoon!

Sevilla food and history - This was fun, informative, and yummy. Our guide, Marcelo, gave us nice tidbits about the history of each place we visited. The churros, ham, and the summer wine were my favorites, but each stop introduced us to a part of Sevillan food and culture. Bravo!

Intimate group of 9 - Very well organised and interesting tour.
We visited 7 different food/drink venues ranging from a convent where the nuns made pastries for sale to a very buzzy back street bar with history.
Manuel was an excellent guide.

A professional company and great guide who did a fantastic job today. - A truly first class experience. I am a novice to tours like this but truly had an excellent time today. Our guide, Alejandro, was informed, passionate, friendly and easy going. We were only a small group of six which meant we also got to learn about each other as well. I learnt so much about seville and spain while sampling some of the best food seville has to offer. I tried new foods and new drinks I wouldn't normally have tried, and learnt a great deal at the same time. Do yourself a favour and get on one of these tours.
