Emilio was the best guide! He was so enthusiastic and energetic. His love for food was apparent and it made for the best experience! Highly recommend this tour!
We had an amazing tour with Elise! Elise’s insights into Spanish history and the way it shaped not only Malaga but the food we were eating was such an added bonus. The only thing we would change…booking the experience earlier in our trip so that we could utilise the food map! I guess we will just have to come back to Malaga
what a wonderful tour. emilio was a bundle of fun and got the group gelling together early on. the food wine and chat was excellent - a ten out of ten experience
A guide takes you through Malaga central to 4 spots (my experience) and orders local tapas on your behalf. Some of these included deep fried eggplant, olives and anchovy on a stick, cooked pork marinated in local Malaga wine and roasted capsicum in olive oil. The vibe was great and heavily depends on your tour guide and group. I personally enjoyed my experience with the other guests. However, given the price of the guide and what you’re given (in my opinion) doesn’t add up. Seafood is a big part of Malaga culture and many of our dishes were very basic vegetarian dishes. Tour was lovely but all in all, I wouldn’t recommend.
The tour was very good. An interesting selection of foods - very tasty; and Fernando was an excellent guide. Definitely worth doing.
The experience exceeded expectations!
Quite amazing! Learnt so much ….. will definitely book next time in Malaga …….. thank you Fernando……
