This 3.5-hour half-day tour in Malaga focuses on the city’s food traditions, local customs, and cultural sites. The group, limited to 12 participants, is guided through seven food-related locations starting on Calle Marqués de Larios, the main pedestrian street. The tour includes a 45-minute visit to Mercado de Atarazanas, one of the world’s top markets, where guests sample fresh seafood, produce, and regional specialties. The group then stops at a traditional ultramarinos grocery shop on Plaza Enrique Garcia Herrera 8 to taste Iberian cold cuts and homemade vermouth. In Old Town Malaga, the tour visits two restaurants: one serving classic Andalusian tapas like gambas al pil pil and tenderloin in Pedro Ximénez sauce paired with Spanish wines, and a modern venue near the Alcazaba where a local chef serves reinterpreted traditional dishes such as gazpachuelo malagueño or arroz con chistorras, accompanied by Spanish wine. The guide provides commentary on Malaga’s food history, local customs, and culture throughout the tour. Tastings include more than 14 items, featuring a dedicated Iberian ham tasting. The tour passes by several cultural landmarks including Malaga Cathedral and the Alcazaba. Transportation to and from the attractions is not included. Seasonal changes may affect stops and tastings. Participants should advise any dietary requirements when booking. A vegetarian option is available. The minimum drinking age is 18 years, and the dress code is smart casual.
