Eat where locals eat
Food tours take you where the locals eat: to tapas bars, street kitchens, market halls and bakeries.
How it works
Almost every food tour follows these three steps, whatever the city.
You meet your guide and a small group at a set meeting point in one neighborhood.
You walk from one eatery to the next, usually three or four in total. The guide orders for everyone.
Most tours take about three hours and replace dinner.
