Reviews from guests
A delightful experience. Elena superbly guided us through some wonderful iconic sights, & hidden gems. It was terrific to share stories of our respective countries. Elena showed genuine curiosity & interest in our country, as we did hearing & learning from her. Given the heat in Seville, it was a welcome respite to visit the Convent & have lovely home- baked biscuits by the Nuns & have coffee in the nearby bar. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience, & Elena’s food tops & venues were spot on. Thanks Elena very much!! Ruth & Peter. Australia.Relaxed, infotmstive & totally engaging!
Elena was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable, fun and easy going. She was a delight and we recommend her highly. Wonderful tour
Elena was fantastic! She took us to several different stops with a variety of flavors and explained the historical and cultural context of each dish and paired it well with drinks appropriate for the taste and the locale. Each place was clearly the favorite of locals as opposed to a tourist spot. Elena not only had deep knowledge of the wine and drink selections but also explained the cultural nuances of our surroundings. She also explained a lot about Flamenco and its origins and histories as well as the Andalusian language living right in front of us! Very much worth the value! She was friendly and flexible as we had to work around another sight we were seeing just before. Thank you so much for everything!Deep knowledge, great flavors
Elena gave us a delightful evening. We thoroughly enjoyed her introduction to and explanations of traditional Spanish dishes, wines and sherry. Great food tour
We had a great time with Elena on the Drinks & Bites tour in Seville. Ordering tapas from a non-touristy bar is a huge challenge if you don't know Spanish - or the bartenders. Elena took us to fantastic hidden gems that we would have never found (or navigated) without her. She's extremely passionate about Seville, and loves to show off her city. Tapas and Vermut!
Elena was an excellent guide, with a really deep knowledge of Seville culture, food and traditions. She is also very relaxed and fun which made the day fly by. The food was, of course, excellent and she took us to small family run tapas establishments for some really different dishes. We ate too much, laughed a lot and learned loads. Can't recommend it enough.Relaxed and fun with fantastic food
A wonderful few hours was spent with Elena who’s passion and knowledge had us enraptured Elena was absolutely brilliant
Elena provided us with a fantastic food tour experience in Triana. We tried lots of different foods and drinks, and were very full by the end of the tour. Elena also gave a lot of great historical background information on the food and neighborhood. Elena has training in gastronomy/wine, in addition to being born and raised in Seville, making her a fantastic tour guide. The one area for improvement would be around organization. Elena reached out to reschedule our tour the day before, which luckily we were able to accommodate. Additionally, we were not able to visit one of the locations due to it being too busy, but we were able to try the food from this place to go. Fantastic Food Tour Experience in Triana
Loved learning the history! She was sweet with our daughters (ages 6 and 4) and even took great photos of us at the big sites. Her recommendation note for food and activities made the rest of our stay in Seville better than we could have imagined!Wonderful insight and food rec
We loved Elena! She is so warm, professional and deeply
knowledgeable about her home
town. We had such an amazing
time that we booked her again for
the following day! Seamlessly integrating information about history,
culture, and food, she deeply
enriched our visit to Sevilla.
We learned and experienced things that we would never have had access to otherwise — for example,
a bar steeped in the history of flamenco as a form of artistic resistance that served an exclusive variety of orange wine and a fantastic dish of pork prepared in an Arabian style.
Everywhere we went we were warmly
welcomed because we were with her. We did not encounter tourists or other guides
at any of our food
stops. Elena was also very
generous with recommendations and answers to our questions beyond the time that we spent with her. Elena was
a
total pleasure to spend time with and she has my highest recommendation.Elena is phenomenal
Elena was an AMAZING guide for our food tour of Seville. She was very knowledgeable, super friendly, fun and eager to accommodate our specific requests. She also taught us many things about the local culture and the culture of Spain in general. It was my sister’s birthday so Elena surprised her with a special dessert complete with a candle and sang Happy Birthday in Spanish. In addition to her English being is perfect she was the PERFECT GUIDE! I highly recommend Elena!!!Elena the Spanish Foodie Extraordinaire
This was a wonderful tour! Elena is very knowledgeable about both food and history. She provided great context to the places we went and the foods we tried. It felt very personalized to us, rather than a standardized tour.Food Tour With Elena
We have taken several food tours in our travels but Elana's was by far the best. She took us to two different family-owned restaurants. The way she was greeted was like she was a member of the family. The service the staff provided us was second to none and they treated us like family. To say the food was excellent was an understatement. The variety of tasting, treats and drinks exceeded anything we have ever had in any previous food tours. We wholeheartedly recommend Elan for a food tour in Seville!Exceeded Expectations
Elena did an outstanding job on showing us around Seville, the knowledge and explanation she gave was very interesting and done in a fun way. The day after we did also the food tour with her & this was absolutely fabulous! Enjoyed everything & lovely to meet such a kind person like her.
Thanks Elena for being a great host to our family.City Trip " Amazing with Elena"
We had a fantastic afternoon with Elena. She brought us to places that we would have never have gone on her own. She was knowledgeable and fun to be around. We would highly recommend and if we come back to Seville we will definitely use Elena again. Amazing afterboon with Elena
Elena's love and appreciation for Seville's fascinating history and city life was a joy to experience! We learned so much about Seville's special places and role in European and Spanish cultures, as well as it's delicious cuisine. Excellent tour and charming guide!
Absolutely loved touring Seville with Elena. We toured for 5hrs and could’ve stayed touring with Elena for longer. We had a group of varying ages and Elena was brilliant with all of us. The Alcazar was fantastic and the Cathedral absolutely stunning! The tapas bar was delicious as well! Elena’s enthusiasm and authenticity was contagious and you couldn’t help but to be amazed and excited at every part of the tour. Would thoroughly recommend Elena Seville with Elena
Elena guided my family and I through a wonderful food tour around Triana. We tasted amazing tapas while learning about the rich history of Triana and Sevilla. Highly recommend this experience to anyone seeking to explore the city for the first time. Elena is a superstar guide!
Elena showed u some of the best places to have Tapas in Seville. She also was very informative about the history and the culture of the city. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Seville. Wonderful Tapas and Historical Tour
Elena was a warm, friendly and engaging guide with a true passion for the cuisine, culture and history of Seville. Exploring the Mercado de Triana and the tapas bars in the neighbourhood introduced me to places that I would not have found on my own and to some fantastic tapas. Highly recommended. Wonderful treat on a rainy day
Es war genial. Elena hat es verstanden, ihre Begeisterung für die Stadt, ihr Geschichte, die Kultur und die spanischen Köstlichkeiten auf uns zu übertragen. Dafür sind wir dankbar für dieses Erlebnis. Das war genau nach unseren Vorstellungen.Genial
Elena met us as agreed near the cathedral and then gave us avery informative tour which included some very interesting aspects of the origins and history of Seville which was much appreciated. We closed the visit in the old mosque areaVery knowledgeable
שילמתי עבור 2 אנשים 282 יורו ובדיעבד ועף אף שהמדריכה אלינה הייתה מקסימה חשבתי כמה המחיר מוגזם ולא פרופורציונלימחיר מופרז המדריכה נהדרת
Elena is a lovely person who showed us around Seville on an extensive tour. Lots of information and answers to all our questions. Perfect. Thank you Elena.Lovely guide in Sevilla
Our food tour with Elena was one of the best experiences on our trip! We went to local establishments that we would have never found on our own. Elena had great positive energy and was an excellent historical commentator! It was clear that she loves Seville. Definitely recommend Elena for a FUN, educational & delicious evening!Truly Exceptional & Fun Experience-
Elena, was very knowledgeable and explained Seville history, culture and cuisine. The tastings were a good variety and exceptional quality. We felt the price was a bit high. Given the experience, we would choose a group tour. Introduction to Seville cuisine
We highly recommend Elena. She was knowledgeable, personable, accommodated our inquisitive minds, and provided us with an extensive list of recommendations for restaurants and places to visit.
Elena was so personable, knowledgeable and engaging throughout the tour. She took me to places I would not have found on my own to try incredible tapas and delicacies of Sevilla. She provided so much more than just knowledge about food, but about history, architecture and little pro tips for enjoying my time here. I cannot say enough great things about her, I recommend her to anyone traveling in Sevilla!Incredible start to my Sevilla adventure
Elena put together a great itinerary. We spent o good amount of time in the food market which was good in terms of understanding local produce, the food and drink we sampled and Elena’s hospitality. We headed into Tirana to some great venues and tasted food and drink we have never heard of. The time flew by and we would recommend this tour and this host - best starting around noon in our opinion.Knowledgeable and entertaining host
Elena was AMAZING! We wish we could’ve stayed with her longer as she was so informative about the history and the cultural contributors of the past that make the Seville of today . She clearly loves Seville and we had a wonderful evening with her. A perfect welcome to Seville
A huge thank you to Elena who was just amazing looking after the 10 of us. From the very start of the booking process everything was very easy and friendly. Not only was the size of the group no issue nor was catering for vegans and vegetarians in our group.
Some great history and local incites into Elena's home city, so much so we visited the same area again to try more dishes in the same area.
We would highly recommend Elena and withlocals and would happy go back to Sevilla. Amazing start to our visit to Sevilla
Elena provided us with a wonderful evening. It was the night of a huge football match and the city was packed but she still found us two delightful restaurants. As we walked to our first stop. she gave us some of the history of Triana, and later a brief history of Andalucia in general, and how the blending of so many cultures has created the food, music, dance and architecture of southern Spain. The wines and all of the many dishes were delicious. Our group of five enjoyed our evening with Elena.Delicious food and history
Elena guided us through an evening of exquisite tapas in Seville as well as sharing some of the history of her city. We enjoyed all of it and highly recommend Elena as a guide.Incredible food tour of Seville
We had a fantastic & informative time with Elena.
We tried delicious food & drink that we would never have tied without her expert help. We would also like to add that the Spanish vermouth does indeed travel well!Elena Food Queen
The culinary tasting tour with Elena was great. The experience of a private tour but with someone who is patient, knowledgeable, pleasant and wanting to share more information and tapas and a slight detour to an incredible church made us feel this was the best food tour we've been on. The quality of the food we tasted clearly helps as did the weather and my children of 13 and 10 found the time and food accommodating to their needs too. Thank you Elena, you were great.The Best Tour Experience
Our guide, Elena, is from Sevilla and did a great job conveying information about the local tapas, Flamenco and the food at the restaurant where we had dinner after the show. Elena is friendly, personable and passionate about what she does. She answered all of our questions and offered recommendations for some of her favorite, local spots. She made the evening a lot of fun. The Flamenco show show was amazing.
Fabulous Tapas, Flamenco and Dinner
A great food tour in Sevilla! My guide Elena was extremely knowledgable and made sure we learned a lot more about the city than just food. Plenty of stops to ensure you get out of the heat, and we went to places I never would’ve gone without touring with a local. This company is also very invested in sustainable tourism and only takes you to small, family-owned businesses which is great. I went solo and was welcomed by everyone, which added to my great experience in Sevilla.Incredible food tour in Sevilla - above & beyond!
Starting our visit in Seville, with a tapas tour with Elena was perfect! Born and raised in Seville, Elena had so much history of Seville and the Spanish culture to share. Her experience as a teacher, helped explain everything at level the entire group could understand. Her food choices were excellent and met the dietary needs of all members of the group. Her recommendations for what to do, see, and eat while we were in Seville, made our time in Seville, most enjoyable! I highly recommend starting your trip to Seville, with a Tapas Tour with Elena!Worth every penny!
Our tour guide Elena was absolutely amazing, she was so knowledgeable about her culture and flamenco. The tapas and restaurant we went to were both some of the best food we have had and the flamenco show was absolutely a must. We went back to see it again the next night. Highly recommend and maybe you will get the amazing tour guide Elena.
Amazing tour!!
Elena was an amazing tour for taking us to various local restaurants for tapas and then taking us to a flamenco show.
The in-depth history behind the culture and foods we chose and drinks was very informative! I highly recommend this tour and Elena!!!Elena and Sevilla
We highly recommend Elena's Tapas and Flamenco Tour. It was one of the most informative and exciting experiences we had during our two weeks in Spain. The food was absolutely outstanding in both restaurants, and the authentic flamenco show was well beyond our expectations, moving and thrilling, giving us a new interest in the art. Elena is an exceptional guide. Her enthusiasm, her expertise, her knowledge and her personality make this tour a highlight of a visit to Spain. It was a perfect introduction to the food and culture of Seville.A wonderful experience
