Alicante Tasting Club - The #1 in food experiences and tours in Alicante

I thoroughly enjoyed the tour with Carlos the owner. We were treated to some delightful tastings and wine Mercado Central. When you wanted more, you just had to say "Carlitos, uno mas!" Carlos was insightful and often funny and kept us entertained for the 2 hours of the tour. It's the locals like him that makes Alicante very special. I recommend this tour for anyone wanting to discover the Mercado Central. Viva España!

My husband and I came to Spain for our honeymoon this past week. We were not quite sure what to do but were interested in learning more about the local cuisine. We found out about the Alicante Tasting Club online and decided to give the cooking class a try. We are so glad we did!! Marina, who has been with the company almost 2 years now, was the perfect guide and hostess. She first took us to the local market, where we were able to see the local produce and meet the sweet people of Alicante. (She had pre-purchased the ingredients for the paella so as to not waste time.) From the market we walked 5 minutes to the kitchen & dining room the company rents for the lessons & wine tasting. It was very nice, and clean. Marina guided my husband, me, and another gal on the tour in making chicken paella, step by step. It was great we all got hands-on experience, from chopping vegetables & chicken, to stirring the mix. We ate together afterwards & enjoyed it very much! The complimentary wine/ beverage was a very nice addition to the meal. Would definitely recommend this cooking class/ tour!

Great experience with professional and lovely guidance from Marina. Highly recommended if you want to learn more about making paella the Alicante way.

Booked the historical tour with tapas tasting. Our guide Fran was great. Very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. A lovely way to spend a morning in Alicante. Definitely recommend and well worth the money.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE! Did it on our first day in Alicante and it was so good! The walk through the markets with history included, learning the history of paella and aroz and making a delicious dish whilst drinking wine from the local region was just a great way to start our trip!

It was an amazing experience, if you want to do a cooking class like you see in movies I definitely recommend going with them ! And choosing the ingredients in the fresh market is a must, the experience, the taste are incredible. Also a BIG thanks to ANDREA. she was the highlight of the show, so nice, so funny, your learn a lot with her. We will definitely miss you !

Calificaría la experiencia vivida con Carlos como única e inigualable. En todo momento propició que realmente tuvieramos un espacio-momento alejados al 100% de nuestras rutinas y nuestro día a día. Algo tan necesario hoy en día. Una vivencia que recordaré por siempre y por descontado que recomiendo al máximo a todos aquellos que quieran algo realmente diferente a nada visto. Enhorabuena Carlos! Regresaremos!
