Overview

Come with us and taste the best snacks and tapas from Alicante! A real local experience. Our proposal is having a gastronomic experience trying many typical products from our region, including fruits and vegetables brought directly from the orchard, meat from local farms, Mediterranean fish, as well as tasting cheeses and handmade sweets, all accompanied by typical drinks, both with alcohol and without alcohol. You will discover delicious aromas and flavors! We will meet at the central market and visit 10 different food places, which some of them have more than 100 years old. You can get to know the most experienced sellers and talk about the history of each product and the tradition behind each of them. Meanwhile, you will discover the interesting history of the central market and its hidden places. Booking this experience supports the small businesses, the local producers and the artisans that are still doing their work as it used to be done before. Vegetarian options available.

We will meet on the stairs of the Central Market of Alicante: Av. Alfonso el Sabio Nº10. The stairs are located on the main facade of the market, just in front of the avenue.
