Yes, it is. I was visiting family in late Sept, 2019, in Tenerife, then 2nd and 3rd week of October in the Andalusia area. I fell in love with all of southern Spain. As soon as the travel bands are lifted, I am heading back to Nerja, and I will tour Andalusia for 14 days.

Guys, I love your videos, please continue making more. Spain has been our top 2 most visited destination over the last 5 years or so, and exploring the small towns and villages is truly magical. It is a difficult time for Spain at the moment, but I am sure the people can overcome these difficulties. Cheers.

My husband and l also traveled to Spain in late 2019. Barcelona for almost 2 weeks, staying in 2 different hotels/ areas for conference logistics, was a wonderful experience. We went on four Devour Tours and EVERY one was special and helped us to create some wonderful memories! We love that you are back making videos of travel and food and adding art to your discussions of history and architecture is lovely! I took a photo of a painting at the Fundacio Joan Miro because it reminded me of Yolli! It's called Flamenco and I'll pull it from my files and post it one day for you to see it! Barcelona was not my first trip to Europe, but it was one that l was able to enjoy the most, because of your tours and the videos. I was very comfortable sightseeing alone while my husband was working during the day and l do believe a lot of that was due to your videos and the BEST guides of Devour Tours. XO

So many memories... I lived for 5 years in Cuenca and 7 years in a nearby village. I know about every stone of the place, including the eateries, the Parador and the climb to the Cerro which I've done often with my wife, and I can tell you that you've done a fantastic job of showing it. El Bodegón is a wise choice. BTW I seem to remember that Resoli has cloves too. And morteruelo has pork liver.

Your Spain videos are the best. I keep looking around for other videos but can’t find any that are quite as enjoyable. They’re either too much like a documentary, or too amateurish. I’m not really a foodie, so I like your weekend trips to small Spanish towns the best, but the tapas crawls are fun, too. It fun to fantasize about sitting in these little restaurants and bodegas eating authentic local Spanish dishes.

Hey James, if you are looking for another place to visit I really recommend my hometown Zamora. As one of the smallest cities in Spain is often forgotten but it's only 3 hours away from Madrid and it's full of modernist and romanic architecture, it's also amazing for tapas! I miss it dearly since I've been in the UK for the past 5 years. Every person I've reccomended them to go have really enjoyed it. Amazing wine area aswell :)

Hi Lucia. I like Zamora and the surrounding area. I live about two hours away, in Chaves, Portugal. Can you believe that when we go down to the Algarve to escape the cold at Christmas time we always take the Spanish highways, from Verín to Zamora, then down the Autovia past Salamanca to Huelva and Vila Real de Santo Antonio, Portugal. You are right that few tourists make it to Zamora. But Zamora gets more tourists than Palencia or Ourense. Those places have a hard time attracting travellers. Are you working as a nurse in the UK?

You 2 hit stride on this one. Having been to Cuenca and fallen head over heels (fortunately not literally off a balcon de casa colgada) with the city. I took my daughter on a 5 week trip through Spain and a bit of France with no destination and we ended up in Cuenca without a plan. We stayed very near the restaurant you found the first night. It was not as uptown as the Parador, but was fine and since at the top of town, gave us a long uphill walk home after happily wandering around all day. We also stopped in at the Cathedral in time for mass. It was a stunning experience. I agree that the Cathedral in Cuenca is one of the most beautiful I have ever experienced. Your video took me back to what I remember walking around the town and the essence of the place. I would agree that white wine was not the thing to drink with traditional comida manchega. Once you switched to a hearty red, all was well. Thank you so much for this fantastic video.

My wife and I stayed in Cuenca a couple of years ago and lodged in the Hostal San Pedro which you walk past at 11:41 The rooms look directly over the gorge. I remember we had a fine meal somewhere on Calle San Pedro and all the tourists were Spanish. We started the day in Ubeda in Andalusia, drove through the Despenaperros Pass on the old road, had lunch in the remarkable Plaza Mayor of Almagro before driving to Belmonte Castle. By the time we got to Cuenca it was dark but we parked at the top and had a meal in the same place as you. I'm afraid our annual visits to Spain this year have been ruined but we'll make it in October, God willing. I'm glad you had a wonderful time and shared some moments.

After that we drove to Trujillo in one day where we stayed for three nights. I always drive through the National Parks if possible even if it takes a bit longer. The landscape and random stops and discoveries are just as interesting to me as the final destination. Trujillo to Priego de Cordoba for one night before spending the last three days chilling out in Alhama de Granada before departing from Malaga. We did it in the heat of the summer and it was one of the best holidays we've ever had.

A few notes 😎😂😂 Wow! Having seen the making of it, this video was one of your best. It began with a smile as the montage showed the door being locked and knowing the keys were inside and you even managed to get a pool sequence 😁. But it was disappointing to miss the cathedral pigeon. 😂 Never tried zarajo, but would love to. Too few people still eat offal in the UK, it's dying out in favour of meat wrapped in plastic. The morning walk was so worth it. I really need to go back to Cuenca. Why do you insist on dragging that poor girl up hills? To be serious for a moment, I have seen many tour videos but yours stand out. I think it is, in part, the professionalism but also the natural way you both have and the obvious passion and sense of fun. Keep doing what you're doing guys. Hasta pronto

The "no" printed on the screen while Yoly reluctantly says "ok" to agree to climbing the hill gave me quite a chuckle. I'm guessing this is another touch from Carlos. :) All around this is a great video. The opening sequence had me smiling, especially knowing some of the back story (as Paul mentioned as well) and then the first shots of Cuenca and the dramatic introduction really set the stage for the rest of the video. I've never been to Cuenca in my previous visits to Spain, but it's on my list of places to see now. Perhaps in the spring when it's not quite so hot though! :P Thanks for the introduction to such an amazing city!

We were in Madrid in March 2020 but we had to leave early do the coronavirus, hope next be better. Next year when we visit Madrid we will visit Cuenca. Thanks for info. Keep the videos coming.

Glad you enjoyed Cuenca! Feel free to drop by anytime again, and maybe you'll end up fallin' in love with this great town. Also, you should make another visit bc you have many things you can eat and didn't appear in the video, like pisto, (starter/first dish) or alajú (dessert), not to mention all the sweet yummy treats we got here.

You have out-done yourselves. A beautiful video about a fascinating city. I agree 100% about the contrasts of ancient and modern in Spain. They make it work so stylishly, too. Thank you for sharing this lovely, magical place with us.

Wow, Amazing place, Beautiful, magical, and everything. I always run out of words to describe the places you show us. 👍. Would you believe me if I told you that we had a few lessons in prose about Don Quixote of La Mancha, of all places in India way back in the mid 70s and I have become a fan of Spain ever since.

I spent a day in Cuenca just this February. Although I did not stay overnight, I was in awe. The views from the Parador side (& from San Pablo Bridge) of the gorge were simply breath-taking. I spent hours simply walking around the old town and probably took hundreds of pictures. Ronda is probably a close second for me when it comes to gorge views. However, my favorite small town in Spain is Arcos de la Frontrera. Thank you for this wonderful video. Cheers!
