What clients say about Irene and Tapas in Granada
  

Below you can find some reviews on Tapas in Granada of people who participated in our Tapas tours.

We met Irene at the appointed time and right from the start we knew we were going to have a great evening of fun, tapas and new friends! Irene took us to well off the beaten track and introduced some interesting new wines and beers on route. It was a super evening and one we are planning to repeat when we return to Granada.
We highly recommend this tour if like us you’re bambuzzelled by the number of tapas bars in the town, the array of tapas and the ‘how to’ of it all!Go do it!!
-Amon & Antoinette, from Ireland/Portugal

 
During our Andalucia tour we have been to many other tapas bars in the meantime and we had other guided food tours, too, for instance we had a “wine & tapas tour” in Seville.
It is clear now that Irene has been the most knowledgeable guide who perfectly understood our preferences and the wines she picked were – by far! – the best.

Empfehlenswert
Granada ohne Tapas? Geht nicht! Um einheimische Bars zu besuchen, haben wir uns für diese Tour entschieden. Was sollen wir sagen? Es war einfach toll! Irene war ein super Guide. Sie war super drauf, hat fließend Spanisch, Englisch und Deutsch gesprochen. Irene hat uns zu Bars mit leckeren Tapas und einzigartigen Bier-Sorten geführt. Zudem haben wir ein sehr sympathisches und lustiges amerikanisches Paar kennengelernt. Besonders lustig: Als wir nach Mitternacht mit unseren neuen Freunden noch in ein Pub gegangen sind, sind wir dort wieder auf Irene getroffen. Ein rundum gelungener Abend! Sehr empfehlenswert! Danke!!!

The best tapas tours in Granada
These tours are brought alive by an excellent guide… she loves and knows the best places for tapas in the city. Seems like the tours are her passion; she is definitely passionate about the beautiful city and its surrounds as well as good food. She is so knowledgeable about all corners of the city. She does not only offer tapas tours but can connect the traveller with other attractions… she believes in promoting and connecting the locals. One cannot go wrong with a tour with Tapas in Granada

Excellent and fun Tapas tour with Irene
Mom, Dad and two Teenage girls enjoyed this Tapas tour very much! Irene is fun and interesting and has a many years love for Granada Tapas. After several days eating tapas in Madrid and Seville, the family questioned Mom’s prebooked plans for a tour, but we were blown away at the great craft beers, local wine and excellent tapas, proving that getting local recommendations on restaurants will steer you to much better food and wine than just picking them as you walk by.

Absolutely Exceptional!
What a great tour! Irene guided us through some great little spots in Granada. I enjoyed some locations so much that I went back the next day! Irene did a great job of explaining what we were eating and drinking, and helped us make the most informed decisions about wines. This tour really exceeded expectations! I would recommend it to anyone in Granada.

Fantastic night of tapas and drinks
We went on this tour Wednesday night to celebrate our last evening in Granada and we could not have been more pleased. The group was small providing an opportunity to get to know each other and to ask Irene anything at all. Irene was a great tour guide. She took us to lovely small restaurants off the beaten path where we sampled local beer,wines and even vermouth. The tapas were fantastic and not the typical tourist food
This will be a highlight of our trip. Had an awesome regional beer that uses rosemary and honey.

Great food, informed guide and good company
Had a wonderful evening visiting four tapas bars we would never have found by ourselves. Irene was an informed guide, gave great explanations of some of the history of Granada, the food and wine.Our 2.5 hours turned into 3.5 hours as we were having such a good time! Excellent value for money

Interesting tour with a charming guide
We had a very interesting tapas tour with Irene. She led us to four very different bars and we tasted beer made with sea water, Andalusian wines and vermut. Included were some special tapas from cheese empanadas to pig cheeks.
Irene knows Granada very well and she loved to tell about it. We really had fun together.

Tapas tour with Irene
 
We had a great private tapas tour with Irene. We visited three places one had a fantastic view of the city at night. She also took us to some interesting ruins in the area. Enjoyed the tapas and the wines. She also accommodated non-drinkers in our party of seven.

Voor herhaling vatbaar!
Een betere kennismaking met Granada kun je niet hebben! Heerlijke dag/avond gehad en veel gezien van de stad. Irene weet veel over de historie te vertellen en is daarnaast bekend met de beste tapas bars in Granada. Dat merk je ook aan de gastvrijheid van de eigenaren van deze bars. Irene is bekend en geliefd bij de plaatselijke ondernemers.

(You cannot ask for a better Get to know Granada! Had a lovely day/evening and I saw a lot of the city. Irene can tell you a lot about the history  and she knows the best tapas bars in Granada. You feel it especially by the hospitality of the owners of the bars. Irene is known and loved by the local entrepreneurs.)
 

I met Irene de Boer through serendipity and I am so glad I did. She´s fun, gregarious, likes wine and knows good tapas and the people who make them.
Irene is extremely knowledgeable and still striving to find out more about the secrets and lives of Granada.
If you really want to know the truly interesting parts of Granada and have fun doing it, contact Irene.

She also gave us a map of places to see and other good bars and restaurants.

Top tapas tour!
Een fantastische tour gehad met Irene. Genoten van onbekende, niet toeristische bars en plekken.

(Had a fantastic tour with Irene.I enjoyed the unknown and non touristic bars and places we visited. Interesting (background) information on the neighbourhood, the bars and the tapas)
 

Top!
Irene est une amoureuse de Grenade et de ses cafés. On se perd dans ces ruelles aux milles histoires. On découvre à chaque étape du tapas tour une ambiance différente. On ne se sent jamais sur une autoroute touristique, immergés dans cette culture si spécifique et puissante.
A ne pas manquer !
– Romain, from France
(
Irene is in love with Granada and its bars. We get lost in the streets of a thousand stories. We discover at every stop of the tapas tour a different atmosphere. It never feels like a touristic highway, immersed in this culture so specific and powerful. Do not miss!)
