Guided by our knowledgeable local expert, you will explore the market’s vibrant stalls and discover the rich culinary heritage of Andalusia.

We had two wonderful tours with Taste Marbella. Our first was a market tour with Michel. He shared a wealth of knowledge with us, as well as some delicious tastings. Our second was with Manuel, a tapas tour. He took us to places we never would have discovered on our own and shared interesting stories along the way. Both tours highly recommended.
Amazing food tour of Marbella. It was great to be able to be taken around the old town with someone who knew all the best places to eat and drink. Manuel the tour guide was so good throughout and so knowledgeable of the local area and the history behind the area. It was great to be taken around the tapas bars in Marbella and see tapas restaurants that you wouldn’t find without a guide. The tapas food we were given so was delicious and couldn’t believe how much we were given. We all had such a fun time with Manuel and definitely would recommend it as a must do when visiting Marbella. gracias manual por una gran noche
Our Tapas food tour with Manuel and Christian was wonderful in the old town of Marbella. They were very knowledgeable and fun to be with during our tour around Marbella . We went to three wonderful restaurants with great Tapas and wine. Highly recommend this tour!
Went on an absolutely fantastic tapas tour in Marbella with Christina! She made sure we learned a lot about the culinary arts and history of Marbella. She was perfectly organized, friendly and funny. The tapas and wine were delicious, especially at La Tienda. I would definitely recommend the tour to everyone!
What a treat ! I organised this gastronomic tour for our group of eight, as part of a business trip, without imagining for a single moment the indelible mark the evening would leave on us. To say that the charming Natalia totally won us over would be an understatement! Beyond her friendly welcome, and her simple, clear and relevant lessons on the history and culture of the city (the impact of politics and religion on gastronomy and architecture being just one example), she introduced us to the local culture, allowing us to sample a variety of wines as we drank in her words. I thought I knew a little about Marbella, as I had visited several times, but Natalia surprised us continuously, allowing us to experience places we would never have discovered independently. Each bite of those tapas and each sip of those delicious wines was a marvel ! More than highly recommended ! FYI, our tour was the evening Wine & Tapas Testing Tour but I believe a "lunch" formula is also on offer, introducing the local market.. I'm going to have to return... with great pleasure !
