Alex was INCREDIBLE! Learned a lot and ate some of the best bites of my life! Our guide, Alex, was so friendly and knowledge and made it feel so special. Absolutely a must-do especially for newcomers to the city.

Ich wusste nicht, was genau uns erwartet und war begeistert. Nicht nur haben wir Spezialitäten aus Spanien kennengelernt, sondern auch geschichtliche Hintergründe kennengelernt. Sehr tolle Mischung und super spannend.
