This is not only a tasting tour but the amount of food that you will consume is equivalent to a full lunch! This gastronomic tour will start at Alicante’s Central Market, which is the perfect place to immerse yourself in the heart of local culture and strolling through the market meeting friendly stall owners and tasting fresh local products is the best way to do it!
The traditional markets are visited by neighborhood residents who still come every morning to pick up ingredients for that day’s lunch. We visit our friends who work here and taste their products, that range from cured ham to olives to seasonal fruit. After we will experience the city like a local by visiting two of Alicante’s great Tapa bars while you sample different drinks and tapas of which are interpreted by our fun and experienced guides.

Rebecca was a terrific guide, learned so much about Alicante food scene, Mercado is impressive and continued with boutique food shops and mid day tapas. Liked that better than evening tapas food tours, less crowded. Good value and again knowledgeable and convivial guide.
