What to expect
Your guide meets you at an agreed point in Triana and leads you on foot through the neighbourhood's backstreets, stopping at four established taverns along the way. At each stop you'll order and taste local dishes—the menu varies by tavern and season—paired with regional drinks. Your guide explains the history and cultural significance of each location and the dishes themselves, sharing context about Triana's role in Seville's identity. The pace is relaxed; you're not rushed between stops. By the end of three hours you'll have eaten enough to constitute lunch or dinner and sampled how locals actually eat and drink in the neighbourhood.

Good to know
This suits anyone who wants to eat properly (not tiny bites), learn food history alongside culture, and avoid the tourist-trap tapas bar circuit. It's strong for couples and small families aged 15+ seeking an authentic local experience. You'll walk at a moderate pace through neighbourhoods with uneven pavements and some hills—not suitable if you have mobility issues, use a wheelchair or pushchair, or can't sustain steady walking. Dietary restrictions (vegetarian, pescatarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, non-alcoholic) are accommodated, but you may not get a replacement dish at every tavern, so email after booking to discuss. Vegans and those with coeliac disease should not book. Hotel pick-up is not included; use local transport or taxi to the meeting point. Gratuities are separate.
