La Plata was one of the stops on the Devour tour I did 2 weeks ago....Our group was seated in the far right corner. The food was incredible and the fried whole anchovies were to die for. Don’t be squeamish- eat up! The staff were some of the nicest people I met in Spain. To access the toilet you have to go behind the bar and I got to peek into the tiny kitchen. Very impressive how so much delicious food is produced so fast out of such a tiny space. I was traveling solo and chose Devour tours in both Madrid and Barcelona; I highly recommend them! Both guides, Annette and Luke were so friendly, welcoming and professional. At all stops we were treated as welcome guests and not as PIA tourists, which I did feel at some places I tried on my own. Thank you for making my trip so memorable!

We have been watching your videos for over 4 years. My husband is half Spanish, with grandparents from Salamanca. Last week, on our second visit to Barcelona, we booked your Tavernas, Tapas and History tour in the Barrio Gotico. Eric was our guide and he was fantastic! A tremendous tour, wonderful food and drink (I am now a sweet vermouth fan!) and interesting sights, information on this wonderful area. We are planning our second visit to San Sebastián, and another excellent Devour tour will be part of our itinerary.
