Founder & Guide — Sevilla Tapas Tour
Welcome to the official blog of Sevilla Tapas Tour, a space where I share the stories, traditions, and flavors that make Seville one of the most vibrant cities in the world. After years guiding travelers through its bars, markets, and hidden plazas, I wanted to create a place to go deeper into what we live every day on our tours.
Here you will find articles written from real experience — not from travel brochures. Each post reflects the knowledge gathered over more than a decade walking these streets, tasting, listening, and learning from the people who keep Seville's food culture alive.
Stories from the Heart of Seville
For me, Seville is not just a city — it is a rhythm of life that can be tasted. I have spent more than a decade walking its narrow alleys, discovering the old taverns that locals still call by the names of their grandparents, and talking with chefs who cook with the same patience their mothers taught them. That long journey through flavors and faces inspired me to create this blog — a space where I can share the stories I live every day while guiding travelers through this city I love.
Each post is a piece of Seville's living culture: the bartender who knows every customer by name, the baker who wakes up before dawn, the elderly couple who still meet every Sunday for calamares fritos and manzanilla.
Through this blog I hope to connect you with the real Seville — the one that smells of orange blossom, hums with conversation, and finds beauty in the simplicity of a shared meal. I write as a guide, but also as someone who fell in love with this way of living, and who believes that every traveler deserves to experience Seville with authenticity and respect.
