Detailed itinerary

1

Join us for this 3-hour long food tour across this Mediterranean gem: Cadiz! You will enjoy a delicious walking tapas tour in at least 4 stops. All food included!
Please, bear in mind that the tastings here described may change according to the season and the availabilities of our partners.

2

Going to the first stop you'll see the Roman Theater.
At the first stop you'll taste Chicharrón: a delectable treat that takes crispy pork cracklings to a whole new level. These crunchy bites are made from fried pork belly or pork skin, seasoned to perfection.

3

While passing by Plaza de las Flores, you'll reach the second stop where you'll have Pescaito frito: a culinary treasure showcasing the region's love for fresh seafood. This dish features a delightful assortment of small fish—often including tiny whitebait and succulent anchovies—lightly battered and fried to golden perfection. The result is a crispy, addictive treat that’s bursting with ocean flavor!

Stop 4

You'll pass by this attraction while reaching stop n. 3 where you'll taste Papas aliñás: a delicious and refreshing twist on potato salad that perfectly captures the essence of Andalusian cuisine. These tender, boiled potatoes are lovingly tossed with a vibrant mix of olive oil, vinegar, fresh parsley, and a sprinkle of salt, creating a dish that’s both simple and bursting with flavor. Often adorned with capers or onions, papas aliñás are the perfect accompaniment to seafood or enjoyed on their own as a light snack. With their delightful combination of textures and zesty notes, they offer a taste of the sunny Mediterranean right on your plate!

5

You'll visit the famous market and taste the typical Churros con chocolate: an absolute must-try! These golden, deep-fried dough sticks are light and airy on the inside, with a super crunchy outside that makes them totally addictive. Dunk them into a cup of thick, rich chocolate—so smooth and warm it feels like dessert—and every bite becomes a little piece of heaven. The combo of crispy churros and creamy chocolate is just amazing! Loved by locals and tourists alike, churros and chocolate aren’t just a treat; they’re a fun way to enjoy the sweet side of life in Cádiz (available according to the season).
