Wine & Tapas in Zaragoza - Our guide, Marta, was excellent! As we walked through the town she gave us the history of the town and the wine industry of Zaragoza. The focus on the culture and history was an unexpected and delightful surprise. She expertly guided to four different bars where we sampled a variety of wines and tapas. Marta was a charming host and made the evening memorable.

Wonderful evening in Zaragoza! - My husband and I had a wonderful time! I think as we visited during the middle of summer that it was just the 2 of us on the tour. Marta was an exceptional host, she knew so much history of the city and was so nice! It really felt like she was a friend that was taking us out for the evening :) She took us to places we wouldn’t have known to visit, including this fascinating museum in an underground wine cellar dedicated to a tower that used to be standing in Zaragoza years ago. We tried different wines at each stop which were perfectly paired with the tapas, and she explained the particulars of the wine and the regions it was made and why it went well with each tapa. We loved El Tubo! So fun wandering around this area and we loved that each place we visited was a little different and they all had their own unique vibe. We tried once of the most exotic tapas of our lives - you’ll have to take this tour to find out as I don’t want to spoil the surprise! I would definitely recommend this tour, we really had a great night! 10/10

Great local tour with good wine and tapas - Great way to get to know the old town and the tapas bars. Plenty to eat and drink and our guide lived in Zaragoza so knew where all the best places were and was very friendly. We re-visited some of the tapas bars during our stay.

Wonderful experience to hidden gems - An excellent experience. Got some history of Zaragoza. A tour of the market. Very interesting stops for tapas with cultural information and history and fabulous tapas and wine. Overall a wonderful introduction for us to Zaragoza as it was our first evening there and we loved the overall feel of the places we went which we know we would have never discovered on our own, nor tasted the things we tried without our expert guide. Highly recommended.

Don’t miss this tour - Excellent guide. We received a great overview of Zaragoza including a stop at the local market. The restaurants chosen all had tasty tapas and wine. We saw beautiful spears of white asparagus at the market and our guide gave us a wonder recommendation to a restaurant that had white asparagus. I strongly recommend this tour, as a great way to get started with knowing the city and its history.

No whining about this wine excursion - This was an incredible cultural experience! I am a non-drinker who partook on this special occasion with no regrets. We walked to four locations over the course of the tour, four places that I would never have otherwise discovered. I am unfamiliar with tapas which is why it was so helpful having a cultural guide. They were able to easily make adjustments to both the food and beverages based on the participants. The location that we met up at was central and easy to find. I would DEF do this again.
