Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Such a brilliant food taster tour with Javier. Such a personable young man, so easy to talk to. My husband and I really enjoyed trying some of the local food and wine in his company. Javier also told us some interesting history and local information, as well as ideas for the rest of our stay. Would definitely recommend this tour with Javier."
"javier was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide to the delicious food in Granada . Thank you ! We had a great time "
"We had a fantastic time with Alicia. Her knowledge about the city, Spain and food was amazing. Will absolutely do this again. She’s the best! "
"Our first day in Granada and we had the most wonderful, interesting, enjoyable and DELICIOUS food tour with Javier! Javier is fun, well-informed, and organized. He took us to a variety of great places where we enjoyed wonderful samplings of typical local fare, and he also shared history and interesting facts about Grenada as we walked around. We loved the places he took us too and the fabulous dishes they offered. Super fun afternoon and we recommend Javier highly…he brought it all to life for us. Thank you Javier :)"
"Enrique gave us the best evening we could have possibly imagined, full of excellent conversation, even better food and a great walking tour of Madrid in the process. It was a memorable experience."
"Thanks so much to Carolina. We experienced a great evening with our family. She showed us a few local places for getting to know some local food. Taking care of everybody's wishes and being a very good and nice host. Arranges everything very well and speaks good English. We would like to say till next time."
"Enrique was an excellent host, taking us to three interesting and diverse places in the heart of Madrid for drinks and food sampling. His recommendations were wonderful, and we had a great time conversing on a variety of topics throughout the night. "
"Drica was such a warm, friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate guide on our vegetarian food tour in Madrid. She really made us feel welcome, and brought us to a number of spots we definitely wouldn’t have tried without her guidance. Our only regret was not doing the tour earlier in our stay, so we could take advantage of more of her great recommendations!"
"We had an excellent time with José in Granada. The tour is labeled as a tapas crawl, but for us José customized it as a cultural experience. Since we had already seen a good portion of the old town, he took us to some places that most tourist wouldn’t know to go. The tapas were fantastic, and José was kind enough to take us to a mostly locals tapas bar: large portions in a loud, bright atmosphere. If you are on the fence about taking a tour, I would recommend taking the leap and doing it with José!"
"Jose hosted a really great tour. Walking us to a couple of bars for tapas but also working in great local spots and a history details. "
