Tour description

Our experience begins at the magnificent Atarazanas Food Market, but our story here started back in 2013. As the original market food tour, our decade-long relationships with the vendors give you a true insider’s perspective. You won’t just see the produce; you’ll meet the passionate people behind it and taste the fresh, seasonal flavors that form the heart of Malaga’s cuisine.

From there, we’ll dive into the streets to experience the true art of “tapeo”—the locals’ tradition of hopping between favorite neighborhood bars. You’ll visit a series of cherished, family-run establishments—our partners for many years—to savor an incredible variety of tapas, from the most traditional recipes to local specialties.

This isn’t just a tasting; it’s a full immersion into the city’s culture, shared with you by the guides who know it best. You’ll leave with a deep appreciation for our food, a full stomach, and our exclusive Dining Guide to ensure your culinary journey continues.

*Tastings and Tour stops are likely to change to reflect seasonal produce, and our partners availability.

We want everyone to enjoy the rich flavors of our local gastronomy, and we’re happy to offer delicious substitutions for vegetarians, those with dairy or gluten intolerance, pregnant guests, and non-drinkers. Please make sure to note any dietary needs in the Special Requirements/Notes section when booking.

However, due to the risk of gluten cross-contamination, we do not recommend our tours for those with celiac disease. Additionally, because of the nature of the venues we visit, there are limited vegan options, and this tour is unfortunately not suitable for vegans

We are locals and love to eat! That’s why we would only take you to places that totally convince us and where we go with our friends and families. No tourist traps

Not all Tours are created equal. Our tours are not standardized, but a real reflection of the delicacies every season has to offer and the creativity of our chefs. We took much time and effort in designing the tours so you can enjoy delicious treats, discover hidden places and submerge in our (food) culture in local hideaways.

Feel welcome and like a local. We have great friendships and exclusive partnerships with restaurants, taverns, and market vendors.

Expert foodie guides. They truly are real professionals and experts on local cuisine!

Much more than wonderful food in interesting places. There’s more to it- it’s about the attitude, about getting a bit closer to our authentic culture and real people!
