From the very beginning, Renáta was warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. Not only about the food, but also about the city’s history, culture, and everyday life. Her insights truly enriched our stay in Málaga. The tour was well-paced and thoughtfully curated, with a great variety of sweet and savory tastings and some excellent local drinks. Renáta made sure everyone in our group felt included, and she took great care to accommodate our dietary preferences. We walked away with full stomachs, local tips, and a much deeper appreciation for Málaga. Highly recommended! Thank you, Renáta!We had a fantastic time!

We had a nice time walking through Málaga with Andy. He clearly knows a lot about the city and its history. He brought us to a few local spots for small snacks and which added context to the places we visited. It was a relaxed way to explore the city and try some local bites. Worth doing if you’re new to Málaga and want an easy introduction to the food scene. Great introduction to Málaga and the food.

Booking Andy's 10 tasting tour was the best decision for our first night in Málaga. He didn't just provide a tasting experience; he gave us a wonderful, engaging introduction to the city, its history, and the local etiquette. His English is fantastic, and he was incredibly attentive throughout the entire tour, making sure we had the best possible experience. He is knowledgeable, focused, and genuinely passionate about what he does. We can't recommend him highly enough! Thank you, Andy, for such a memorable night.The perfect introduction to Málaga!

We had a good experience with Nathalie. She is friendly, outgoing, and knows the city and its history well, giving us useful tips for things to do in Cartagena. She spent the full three hours with us, making the tour pleasant and informative. During the food stops, we tried fresh fruit juice at the market, an arepa, local beer, coffee with cheese bread, and a special chocolate with an interesting story. We had expected a few more dishes, but we were satisfied. Nathalie answered all our questions and made the visit enjoyable. Thank you!Good experience

We waren al enkele dagen in Malaga toen we op stap gingen met Andy. We dachten dat we al één en ander wisten, maar dat bleek een schromelijke overschatting toen we met Andy op stap gingen. Als doorwinterde Spanje en Malaga kenner bleven de interessante weetjes, alsook culinaire (echt ons ding) maar komen. Andy heeft vele jaren ervaring in tourisme en dat is er aan te merken: de klik was er meteen en we voelden ons vanaf het eerste moment op ons gemak. Bedankt, Andy voor deze fijne ochtend samen! leerrijke wandeling door Malaga met Andy

I had a fantastic time discovering Malaga with Andy as my guide! It felt like I was exploring the city with an old friend—Andy was warm, personable, and incredibly knowledgeable about the city’s history and culture. What stood out most was how he adapted the tour to my specific interests and needs, making the experience both comfortable and truly memorable. This was so much more than a standard tour; it was a deep dive into the real Malaga, and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide. I highly recommend Andy to anyone looking to experience the city in a unique and meaningful way!Like Exploring Malaga with an old friend!

They were all delicious! Highly recommend. Renáta also gave us a ton of tips and recommendations for the remainder of our time in the area. Really great experience! Outstanding experience in Malaga

We had a wonderful morning touring Bogotá with Nathalie! She was incredibly kind, responsive, and knowledgeable about the city’s history and culture. Traveling alone with three children can be a challenge, but Nathalie made us feel safe and supported every step of the way. She was patient and engaging—my daughters absolutely adored her. While the tour itself was quite expensive compared to similar experiences we had in Guatemala, El Salvador, and Costa Rica (something outside of Nathalie’s control), her personal service was excellent. My only suggestion would be to offer a taxi or tuk-tuk option for families, as walking with young kids made it hard to cover as much ground as we would have liked. Overall, Nathalie was a fantastic guide and I’m grateful we had her with us in Bogotá!Lovely and kind! 10/10 Recommend Nathalie

We did our tour on our first night in Malaga. Miriam was friendly and informative. We had a good range of wines & tapas & when the tour was over she left us somewhere where we could continue our evening. The advice we received helped us to plan the rest of our trip - places to eat & visit. Well worth it. Wine & Tapas tour

(About local Nathalie)

27 March 2025

Bogota is a huge city and we were somewhat time constrained, so rather than a "highlights" or "kickstart" tour, we focused on a single area that we had heard great things about - La Candelaria. It is the original part of Bogota and has great architecture and stories. I messaged Nathalie to arrange a private tour for me and my wife of just the Candelaria neighborhood. Lucky for us she happens to have born and raised in that neighborhood. Nathalie was delightful and her tour was fascinating, informative, and unique in that it was coming from someone so intimately familiar with the area. She showed us hidden gems that I guarantee no other tour would see. I highly recommend a tour with Nathalie!Great guide with fantastic local knowledge

Natalie affords you a look through her eyes of a city she so clearly loves. And the hidden little gems are truly that, something you would never find as a tourist from a local shop with a wide array of practical to traditional and hidden away beautiful homes. Highly recommend!Full immersion into an eclectic city!

Miriam was a wonderful guide. The three hours flashed by, we had fun walking through the old town to Picasso square, then to the Roman theatre, Alcazaba and the Cathedral. We loved the tasting, the fish market and the beach. Miriam gave us great restaurant and other sight-seeing tips. Highly recommend this tour with Miriam. A joyful tour

If you’re looking for a story teller with a diverse background, Renata is your guide! Her ability to weave the more than thousand years of Malaga history along with her personal journey provides for interesting and lively conversation. She has a very warm personality that makes you feel welcome.Malaga meets Budapest

Nadia was just the perfect guide in Malaga! She took the time to understand us and our interests and she designed the tour accordingly. She totally delivered what we wanted but we also just really enjoyed walking around the city and chatting to her. We finished our tour in a really perfect wine bar, where we sat and chatted some more - just what my 18year old son wanted as he was super keen to chat in Spanish about all manner of things - and Nadia was just brilliant at engaging with him. We really enjoyed our tour and I would have no hesitation in recommending Nadia to anyone wanting to find out a bit more about Malaga!The lovely Nadia

Hands down, this tour was one of the best ones my husband and I have done in our many travels. The guide was so informed in her knowledge of the Malaga wine history and the owner’s background and how the vineyard was started. It is an organic vineyard and what is called a micro winery where only 70,000 bottles are produced per year. We were a small group of 5, a guide. It was very personalized with conversation with the owner. He answered any and all questions about himself and the thought behind the wines we tasted. The pairings and tapas were wonderful as well.The best Wine tour.

Renata is really friendly and sweet and we jad an enjoyable evening with her sampling various tapas and wines. She also showed us around Malaga and gave us some recommendations as to where we can go to explore on our own. Although it started to rain pretty heavily halfway thru our tour, she still completed the entire tour with us. In fact, she took us to the wine tasting (not on the itinerary) where we got a chance to try delicious wines and had so much fun !! I will recommend that you book a tour with Renata when you visit Malaga.Fun evening with Renata :))

Our 3-hr walking tour with Renáta was wonderful and informative, filled with history and fun facts. We were in contact even before we arrived in Málaga, and she was quick to respond to all my questions. Walking around and Renáta showing us the highlights earlier, helped us decide what to do with the rest of the day on our own since our time was limited. I highly recommend hanging out with Renáta. Walking tour - a must!

After meeting up with Renáta, we were pleasantly surprised it was a private tour! She took us to some very nice spots in the city and showed us around and gave us very useful tips. What stood out is that Renáta does not just play a tape and communicates a rehearsed story, but instead really engaged in her audience and took an interest in each and everyone. Highly recommended!Awesome private tour
