What Our Guests Are Saying

Stacey C

This was a fantastic event!! Great people on our tour and our guide (Michel) was so knowledgeable and accommodating!! He knew the best places to go and taught us so much! We all loved it!!!

Mitch is a terrific guide and this was a perfect tour for culture, history, and the delightful food of Spain. Unlike the typical food tour walking from restaurant to restaurant, we spent most of the tastings in the Market hall, learning about the specialties. The pace was leisurely and we never felt rushed. Highly recommend if you are visiting Marbella.

Liz C

Amazing experience with a great guide! We learned about the history of the area along with food and wine at each location. One of my favorite tapas was the ensalada rusa.

Jen

Our Tapas food tour with Manuel and Christian was wonderful in the old town of Marbella. They were very knowledgeable and fun to be with during our tour around Marbella . We went to three wonderful restaurants with great Tapas and wine. Highly recommend this tour!

Stefanie Mancini

3 hours of fabulous tapas & wine, sprinkled with culinary and cultural tidbits by our wonderful guide Michel, and great company made for an unforgettable evening. We loved it so much that we all stayed for another drink after the tour had ended! Tour highly recommended also for vegetarians and pescatarians.

Kristoffer L

Really great for a not-too-crazy team building event if you know what I mean, a chance to see a lot of Marbella’s different restaurants and local foods in great locations, would happily do again.
