Kath (@kittyd66) and I have been following each other on Twitter/Instagram for a while now and when she and her husband Tony came back to Sevilla for a visit this week (their 7th!) she got in touch with me about an “off the beaten track” tour since they already knew the city and its bars quite well. And so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to suggest our new We Love Tapas Magical Mystery Tapas Tour with José, with a plan to meet up with them later on during their visit for a cervecita. Well, they loved the tour and did indeed go to places they didn’t know existed, then I met them today for a fabulous lunch at La Brunilda – another first for them. It was a fun afternoon and, as always, lovely to meet another “Twitter pal” in person at last. Pretty sure they’ll be back.

So it’s been a fun month, getting back to my beloved Sevilla Tapas Tours – even had a Sevilla Sherry Tasting last week! – and it’s all been great. It’s still very poco á poco, with restrictions slowly being lifted and all that. Of course this also means the greedy Tour Whores are out in full force, trying to cram large groups into small spaces, many of whom copied my tours but forgot the most important part – to respect both your clients and the bars you take them to. They don’t give a shit that their big noisy groups and shrill guides totally disrupt the nice local buzz, or even that they are loathed by all, including the bar owners.

But in spite of them, I’ve been having such a wonderful time, getting back into this thing I love so much. Let’s see what happens moving forward.

WLT MMT (2)

We Love Tapas has been up and running again since June, with my new WLT manager José Andrés. We’ve also been working on some new tour options, and this is one that I think is going to be quite fun.

Sevilla is a magical city and with our local expert José Andrés you will experience it all – culture, history, and local lifestyle, while tasting some of Sevilla’s best tapas and drinks. José is ready to make sure you will have an unforgettable time in Andalucía’s colourful capital city. But here’s the thing… if you sign up for our Magical Mystery Tapas Tour you never know where you’ll end up, but we guarantee it will be delicious. Perhaps you’ll take a stroll through the old town, or a trek around lesser known barrios; you may find yourself getting on a bus or the metro to discover further flung neighbourhoods and their unique tapas bars.

I’m thinking though… since until next spring (at least!) we are only offering private tours to vaccinated people travelling in their “bubbles”, maybe it should be a flat rate tour fee and then clients pay for the food and drink as they go. So then there’s no budget to stick to, no limits. What do you think?
