We had a great tour with Jose! He was very knowledgeable about the history of Malaga and of the food we tried. We had a good variety of foods and very generous portions! We loved the little bakeries, bars, and restaurants he took us to, and enjoyed our tastings in the central market as well.
An amazing tour with great food & wine

José was amazing, such a great guide with excellent knowledge of local food and drink but also history of Málaga and Spain in general. Tried some great local produce from some hidden gems we would never have found or experienced. Definitely worth every penny!

Highly recommend! This is a great introduction to Malaga and its food culture. Jose Antonio was a great guide and provided valuable insights into food, drinks, and history of Malaga. I would revisit all the locations we went to, plus the ones that he pointed out along the way.

Absolutely fantastic tapas tour with Ricardo who made it fun, informative and made it special for us all! We went to some fabulous places and all the food and drink we sampled was delicious. Would highly recommend as a fun and different way to visit the city - the hours flew by and we had a great group of 7 people who all had a laugh and chatted. Will definitely be booking another tour on my next city break in Europe!
