“What can say about Elio food tour other than wow. Honestly this was absolutely fantastic and a must of wanting to experience food and drinks the sevillian local way. The food and drinks were top noch with Elio passionately explaining the food and drinks. Elios knowledge of food and drinks is honestly mind blowing. The tour was fun, engaging and you certainly don’t leave hungry. Elio also then sends recommendations for restaurants, coffee shops, cocktail bars for the remainder of your stay. It was my partners 40th birthday and Elio made him feel very special and shared a cake and candle at the last stop with a happy birthday song. It really was a brilliant few hours and if your thinking of a tour book this. Worth every penny & More. Thanks again Elio, hope to see you soon.xx”
Taste the Real Seville
Small groups. Hidden bars. Elio walking every tour. Three hours of tapas at the places sevillanos actually eat — not where the guidebooks send you.
Run by the people who walk the tour
We're Elio and Carlos. Elio spent years guiding for one of Seville's biggest tapas tour companies — until bigger groups started getting in the way of doing the tour right. In late 2024 we started Sevilla Tapas Tour to do food tours the old way: small, slow, and at the bars locals actually go to. Elio walks every tour himself.
How It Works
Book Online
Choose your date and secure your spot. Small groups only: max 8 guests (Mon–Thu) or 6 (Fri–Sat).

3+ hours of tapas, wine, stories, and hidden bars. The evening of your trip.
What Our Guests Say
“We just finished an incredible evening touring so many delicious places with Elio. From learning about the ways that jamón is made and graded and how sherry is made and all the different varieties of sherry; to touring fantastic local restaurants tasting new and delicious food and flavours. Elio was such a wonderful host for us, welcoming us to Seville. Thank you Elio, your knowledge, passion and kindness it is truly appreciated! Also, when he says come hungry - he means it! 😊”
“My boyfriend and I booked Elio’s tour for our first day in Sevilla, and it was the best decision we could have made! Elio is knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about Sevilla. It was an amazing start to our trip and gave us priceless insight into Sevilla’s culture and food scene. He also gave us wonderful recommendations on where to eat even after the food tour, which we followed, and were not disappointed. I highly recommend anyone who is thinking about doing this tour to go ahead and book it. The group was small enough to have the opportunity for more discussion and get to know our fellow travelers, and this was a personal touch that I think you won’t get elsewhere. This tour was an amazing value for the experience we had, please choose to support a Sevilla local like Elio!”
“If I could give this more stars, I absolutely would. I can’t recommend this tour highly enough. Elio’s attention to detail and genuine passion truly set this experience apart. My husband and I were looking for a small, intimate food tour led by a local, and it exceeded all our expectations. We discovered and sampled incredible food and drinks from places we never would have found on our own. Every stop felt thoughtfully chosen, making the experience both unique and memorable. Elio went above and beyond after learning we were heading to Portugal next, he kindly shared his personal recommendations, which we greatly appreciated. This tour was an unforgettable experience, and I wholeheartedly encourage anyone to try it, you won’t be disappointed.”
“The Sevilla Tapas Tour was amazing. Highly recommend. Elio was born and raised in Sevilla so he knew the ins and outs of the neighborhoods. He takes to only small, locally owned businesses. The food and drink were all delicious. We went to small spots that were gems that we would have never found on our own. Coming on this tour was hands down one of the best decisions we made in Sevilla.”
“One of the best food tours we've ever done! Elio took us to a variety of locations with delicious selections of local food and beverage, introducing us to some true neighborhood favorites. Loved the small group concept, it made the experience even more enjoyable. He also provided additional recommendations for the rest of our stay; we went to many of these spots and were so happy we did. Book with Elio for an exceptional experience, you won't be disappointed!”
“Hands down the best food experience we had in Seville. Don't think twice, just book it!”
