Sevilla Food Tours - help me decide

Our trip to Spain is a month away! We love to take food tours in the places we visit and would appreciate input from this forum. I’ve searched the forum and read past reviews but am looking for more recent ( past 1-3 years) experience.

We prefer operators who are intentional about going off the “ beaten path” and bringing us to places we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. We like food tours that bring culture and context into the tasting experience- that’s what makes a food tour different than sampling food on our own. We also like tours the are intentional about group size.

Looking for direct and recent experience with these tour companies.

Devour Tours
Spain Food Sherpas

I know Shawn Hennessy is highly recommended but she’s booked the week we’re visiting Sevilla. Welcome suggestions for solo operators as well.

Thanks in advance!

I know you are nearing your departure date, so hopefully you are finalizing your plans.

Yes, I have used Devour Tours in Madrid, and I highly recommend them. I just took the Tapas tours, the Palace/Prado tour and the flamenco tour in 2024.
They are high quality, with expert guides, and go to very unique and excellent locations.
They are also extremely popular in Rome. I try to use this tour company and Walks whenever I am on a shorter timeline visiting major European cities.

By the way, I have lived, worked, and studied in Spain, I am completely bilingual and I can get around anywhere, but I enjoy the convenience of having everything prearranged, prepaid and very well organized.

Trips can also be booked in advance, which is great for planning my itineraries.
