About this experience

As featured in NatGeo Traveller UK 2025.

Tourism should give back to the communities, therefore we do not go to any bars that give commissions, nor are motivated by discounts, unlike other tours might be.

We pay full price to family owned bars, preserving their businesses, traditions, and maintaining the reality of the culture in order to present the true image of the city without disrupting the good coexistence amongst locals and visitors.

No preset menu, the tour tailored for each individual member according to their restrictions, allergies, and preferences (Vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, celiac and/or any other allergy). You will go to local bars where you can experience tapas in a friendly environment. We will also give you the best recommendations for the rest of your stay in the city.

And of course, wine is also included, but not the well-known and easy to find Spanish wine, we go off the beaten path so you can drink our rare wines from a different regions of Spain.
