About this tour
A 3-hour private food tour through Alicante's narrow streets, combining sightseeing with tastings at local bars and restaurants. You'll stop at four venues to sample tapas, cheeses and cured meats, with wine, beer or sangria at each stop. Led by a guide who steers you past tourist traps towards where locals eat, it's designed for anyone wanting to experience the city's culinary rhythm on foot rather than in one sit-down meal.
Highlights
- Four tapas stops across different local bars and restaurants
- Shared plate of regional sausages and cheeses
- Wine tasting with three glasses per person across venues
- Beer or sangria options at each stop
- Walking tour through Alicante's narrow city streets
- Vegetarian and vegan options available with 48-hour notice
- Private experience (minimum two travellers)
What to expect
You'll meet your guide and begin a walking route through Alicante's quieter streets. At each of four stops, you'll enter a local bar or restaurant, order one tapas dish per person, and receive a drink (wine, beer or sangria). Between stops, the guide points out the city as you walk. At one venue, a shared board of cured meats and cheeses arrives. The pace is social and unhurried — you're tasting as you explore, not rushing between fixed appointments. The tour wraps after the fourth venue, typically mid-afternoon.
