Highly Recommended Seville Tapas and History Tour
Justin_F, Feb 2024
Alejandro was an excellent guide and the tour was the quality I've come to expect from Devour. Alejandro was able to effectively communicate a variety of information on the history, culture, and cuisine (including how to make it) of Seville while managing a full (10 people) group on a busy Saturday night (there was a special event in town). The stops were well thought out and all very good, providing a full meal with drinks in venues from the second oldest in town to newer and up and coming but still traditional tapas. All are worth going back to if you have time on your trip.
Response from Host, Feb 2024
Dear Justin_F, Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that Alejandro provided an excellent and informative tour, despite the busy Saturday night and special event in town.

We hope you left with a deeper appreciation for Seville's history, culture, and cuisine. We cannot wait to welcome you back for more delightful experiences in the future! Best regards, Sasha Walks and Devour Tours
