What People Say About Our Tours
“Unlock the hidden gems and history of Granada’s famous tapas.”
I really enjoyed this experience, I went with a friend but as the groups are small and intimate it would also be great for someone visiting by themselves.
“This is a MUST for anyone visiting Granada! ”
A highlight for us was visiting one of Spain’s oldest shops selling dried fruits and an amazing selection of nuts, along with tasting Granada’s award-winning tapas.
