Some of our travelers or adventurers have said about us:

"My husband and I made a one night stop in Zaragoza on our way to Madrid while on our honeymoon. We wanted to get to know the city the best we could in a short amount of time, so I booked a food tour with Jorge.
We had the best time! It was just the three of us on a random Tuesday night. He took us all over the city, giving us a little history along the way. We would’ve never been able to find the little hidden gems without him. We learned so much about the local wines, as well as the local cuisine. The food he suggested was unlike any other we tasted while in Spain.
Delicious! If you’re a foodie who really wants to get to know Zaragoza and immerse yourself in its culture, book this trip. I assure you, you won’t regret it. I think Jorge was such a big reason as to why we fell in love with this city. We will definitely be back, and we’ll be calling our friend Jorge to join us for a drink. Thank you for a wonderful night!"

"This was such a fun food tour with Jorge in Zaragoza! The tapas introduced by Jorge were new to us - tapas are so much more than tortillas and croquettes! At each stop, the tapas were delicious and Jorge was able to tell us back stories of each which made the tour much richer and more informative. By the end of the tour, Jorge became a friend and one we will definitely visit when we come back to this gorgeous city! Thanks Jorge, you're a legend :)"

"Guys! It's a cooking class in English! And it was amazing. We made the best paella and had what can only be described as copious amounts of wine. The facilities were state of the art and the teachers well versed in both cooking and English. George managed to helped us figure out how to make a tortilla that stayed together and didnt look like a sad deflated omelette. Worth every penny!"

"Tours 100% recommended. We learned a lot from Zaragoza. Jorge, in addition, was extremely attentive with all our questions and needs. We traveled with an elderly person and Jorge helped us adapt the tour so that it was inclusive for this population. We had a great time. Definitely, a spectacular tour company that we recommend!!"

I invite you to discover our tours.
