November

Zainab Abbas and Ali Abbas Sikander requested a tour with me a couple of days ago.  They were pleasantly surprised at the food and wine that was on offer as they hadn´t had much luck with their restaurant choices while in Spain!  Ali had been at a conference in the north of the country and they decided to extend their stay and explore.  Zainab had fond memories of a visit to Spain when she was a student.

It was lovely meeting you and discovering that there is edible food in Spain :-))

Good luck with you future endeavours.

Fond regards

Zainab

November

Bill and Clemente enjoyed 5 nights in Granada and I helped them try out some tapas bars.  They were brave and tucked into a plate of “caracoles” (snails) in this bar.  Both gents live in Los Angeles and are seasoned travellers with their own travel blog (www.korstick.blogspot.com).  Come again gentlemen and we´ll try out more bars!

Before we came to Spain, we arranged a “Tapas Tour” for Sunday night with Gayle Mackie, our beautiful Scottish hostess who has lived in Granada for about 15 years. If you ever come to Granada, this tour is a MUST! Gayle is the perfect hostess and explains everything as you go about the food, restaurants, and sites as you walk.

Neil and his 7 friends came on a golfing weekend.  They were practising their skills on the greens and then they enjoyed a tapa route round the city.  Neil has a house just outside Granada and he comes out regularly to visit the area.

Neil and Jenny were from Australia and here they are in a tiny tapas bar tucked down a little alleyway.  Well worth it though as on occasions, you´ll get an impromptu flamenco singer in there to entertain you.  The bar used to be a “conversation house” and we enjoyed continuing the tradition that day!

Mid October

I collaborate with an Australian company called Peregrine Adventures and they send me small groups of visitors mainly from Oz and New Zeland.  We travel across Andalucia, visiting Seville, the “pueblos blancos” (white villages), Ronda and then finish in Granada.  I take them out on a very well deserved tapa night sampling the local delights.

Sept 18th

I took Amy & her husband Mike out on a tapa tour on a lovely September evening.  We enjoyed some great wine & chat (tattoos and pin up artwork amongst other things!)

Gayle,

Nice to hear from you! Our night out with you was a highlight of our trip, and I love the picture!

Hope all is well with you, and let us know if you are ever up for a tapas tour of Columbus, OH. The food won’t be as good, but the company will be excellent!

Cheers, Mike

A mix of nationalities joined me for this Monday night mini tour.  The group came from Norway, Germany, Italy, the USA, Belgium and Australia and all wanted to practice speaking Spanish.

Sept 2nd

This lovely couple from Ireland came with me on an tour.  Many giggles were had as we walked round the bars, especially when a rather upexpected “pomegranate” street bollard bashed into Paul´s knee.

Aug 22nd

It took 10 months to organize but after diligently emailing Wilmara (the organiser) these lovely folks joined me for a tapa tour.  With 24 in the group, it was better to split up and we went to the same bars but at different times.  It all worked like clockwork and we met up in the 4th bar, all together

 Aug 7th

Tracey, her hubby, his brother, wife and the in-laws all came on a sweltering hot summer tapa tour.  The aim of the tour was to find out a bit about Granada´s history, Spanish culture and most importantly to introduce the in-laws to the delights of tapas! (so they would know what to choose from the menu for their week long stay in the area!)
