The best way to get to know people is to show you the insider tips of eating. - The best way to get to know people is to show you the insider tips of eating. Away from the tourists, in small bars and restaurants that are so inconspicuous that they are easily overlooked. The cuisine away from the mainstream ... local and modern combined. With the perfect story behind the dish, with a wine, vermouth or liqueur... whatever goes with it!
You are invited like a friend to dive into a culinary new world! What could be better than listening to a friend's stories over delicious food...

Don’t pass this up! - One of the most memorable experiences we had during our trip to Alicante. Silvina was amazing. She took the perfect amount of time at each stop to touch on the tastings we were enjoying and tell us how they are woven into the local culture. She made sure we experienced a wide variety of local foods and wine and gave us many recommendations for the rest of our time in the region. A great value for the money!

Great tour and very nice tastings - The tour was very interesting and the visit of the mercado central with the opportunity to try different local specialities and to meet and speak with the producers was really great. Our guide Javier was very nice and explained the history of Alicante as well as showed us nice places, including a wine shop with a great tasting. We really enjoyed the tour and thanks again to Javier for the great time we spent together.

Incredible experience, would recommend! - The 10 tastings of Alicante tour was an amazing experience. The food was incredible, and we got to see parts of the city that we would have never seen otherwise. The tour was well organized and the fact is was private gave us the freedom to go around on our pace and visiting the places we liked. I highly recommend going on this tour if you're visiting Alicante. It's a great way to experience local culture while having fun and eating some amazing food along the way!

Tour cancelled after we were due to start - We didn’t get to go on this tour so this is a rating for the tour company. We booked for a Sunday, paid in advance, got a reminder via text and TripAdvisor but nobody turned up at the meeting point. It was only after I phoned our guide and left a voicemail that I received a chat from the company saying the tour was cancelled due to the guide’s personal reasons. My husband texted our guide and he said he’d told the tour company he couldn’t do the tour on a Sunday so we should have had a cancellation four days earlier. We were very disappointed particularly as we weren’t offered to re-book.
