Highlights
  • Mercado de Triana - Mercado de Triana, Plaza Altozano s/n, 41010 Seville Spain, 30 minutes

We will begin our walk with the most special and traditional market in town (former Inquisition castle). We will stop by different stands at the market, but before we stop for food, we will do as the Spanish do, get wined (to open up our appetite a little)!

Right after, we’ll go to 2-3 different classic tapas bars in the area where we’ll get “ugly” but delicious tapas and drinks!

What's Included
  • Carbonated beverages
  • Bottled water
  • Lunch
  • Alcoholic Beverages
Additional Information

For an authentic taste of Seville just like the locals, this is the activity for you. It’s not your typical ‘tapas tour’. We take it a step further, revealing the ‘less glamorous’ aspects of Spain’s flavoursome and traditional dishes!

Allow us to steer you through the delightful tastes of Seville & Andalusia’s cuisine, combined with uncommon and traditional drinks that are new to you.

We’ll start our exploration in the town’s most unique and traditional marketplace, the former base of the Inquisition. We’ll drop by various market stalls and, in true Spanish style, enjoy some wine before we start our food tasting journey!

Following this, we’ll visit 2-3 iconic tapas bars around the area, where we’ll sample ‘unattractive’ yet scrumptious tapas and beverages!

You’ll gain a deeper understanding of Spanish food culture, the origins of our products, the people, wineries, preparation methods, and more. By the end, you’ll discover that Spanish culinary artistry is both intricate and straightforward, and unquestionably appetizing.

10/10 Experience - I did the Sangria Tasting with some friends and Carolina, our guide, was amazing! Everything was delicious, there were good portions, tapas like cheese and olives included, etc. I also learned a lot about how sangria started and how it is made, and at the end they even give you a recipe to make your own sangria. Great experience, I would 10/10 recommend!

100% authentic if it is the first time you come to Seville - Last weekend a friend from the United States came to see me. It was the first time I came to Seville and I wanted to show you a 100% local experience. When I saw this activity on Tripadvisor I didn't hesitate. It was just what we were looking for! I was surprised by the quality of the guides. They were all very attentive and pleasant.

10/10 experience! - The Ugly Food Tour was so fun! My friends and I had an absolute blast. Our guide, Julia, was incredibly kind and knowledgable. I learned a lot about the history of Sevilla and how that has influenced the food that they eat today. The food was also so yummy and different from anything I've ever eaten before. Definitely would recommend this experience to anyone visiting the city! 10/10!!!

BEST FOOD TOUR EVER - The ugly deliciuous food tour was the highlight of our trip, the guide was so knowledgeable and nice, she gave us a lot of info about the history of Sevilla very well connected with spanish gastronomy and the dishes we were having, which by the way were absolutly delicious, and she was a local which was an inmense advantage. I felt like this was a truly local experience, if you want to get away from the turisty overpriced places you should definetly book this experience. Thanks again to the team for such a wonderful day, hope to see you next time I come to Sevilla.

If you want a 1/2 hour... - If you want a 1/2 hour history lesson standing in the cold and waiting even before you get ready to go the restaurants they have lined up, this is definitely for you. If you want to explore eating and drinking with new people and socialize…then no, do not go on this tour.
