Our experience with our guide was wonderful. He was friendly, very good at explaining things, especially the tapas and flamenco, including their history and what to look for. He was a great conversationalist, and showed us many things that we never would have seen without him. He loves being a native of Seville and showing it to the uninitiated. Bravo! If you ever get the chance, by all means take a Devour tour of Seville.

Two different experiences - a tapas tour and a cookery workshop. Both were excellent - and fun!

The food tour in Barcelona was awesome! Our guide was very knowledgeable and the food and drinks and bars/restaurants we visited were fantastic! I highly recommend Devour tours!!

Great tour, great tour guide, amazing food and finds. Super knowledgeable and well worth the money!!

Devour Tours prides itself on quality customer service but falls completely short in practice. During the recent blackout across Spain, with the country shutdown, we were unable to arrive in Madrid for our scheduled tour. We made numerous attempts over three days to rebook the tour since payment had been made. We began emailing, as soon as power was restored which was hours before our scheduled tour, but this and follow-up texts and phone calls all went unanswered. Finally, on the our last day we were offered the option of a tour in Toledo (we were in Madrid) or a late evening one that would not work for us. Essentially, they took our money and did not even offer a decent apology. In comparison, the train and lodging services we dealt with treated us with respect and professionalism. WIth Devour, you may have a great experience if everything goes according to plan. The sign of a quality company, however, is in how they treat you when things get difficult and for this Devour failed miserably. UPDATE. It took almost 9 months, but Devour did apologize.

I booked tickets for Devour’s evening food tour in Florence. One of my guests is unable to eat meat or cheese. The website clearly states that their tour is adaptable for people who are pescatarian or dairy free which is not the case. It turns out they do not substitute dishes on the tour for ones people with dietary requirements can actually eat! Thankfully as I had filled our dietary requirements in before booking I managed to find this out the day before and get a refund, however I find it highly misleading that they claim this tour is adaptable for people who are pescatarian or can eat dairy.
