More information
Alameda de Hercules area is known for being the most alternative part of Sevilla and also the bohemian quarter. It is also known as the go-to spot for modern, alternative and non-touristic tapas spots. On this unforgettable 3-hour tour, a guide will show you the best tapas bars that only the locals know about. From the most traditional tapas to tapas with a modern twist, all the places will leave you asking for more. And of course, it makes perfect sense to accompany all these tapas with a good glass of wine. The tour guide will help you discover the aromas and flavors of wines that go well with this Andalusian cuisine.
First, we will meet in one of the liveliest parts of Seville, Alameda, and from here, we will explore the area and after a short introduction of the history of the district, we will arrive at the first tapas spot. After this, we will meander through the streets and see a variety of different tapas places, from a loud and lively stand-up tavern to a tranquil, formal sit-down restaurant.
At each of the tapas bars, you will have a drink and a choice of one plate to share– which means that if you are in a group with a few people, you will get to try a dozen different dishes! After this, we will return back to the meeting point.

I booked an alternative tapas tour prior to visiting Seville, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Not just a tourist purposely set up small tour groups, in fact my wife and I were the only people on our tour! This did make our tour though, as our guides, Jose and Laureline, took us to a number of places around the trendy area of Alameda de Hercules. Jose and Laureline were fantastic; friendly, funny, knowledgeable and took us to some amazing tapas bars. They ordered the food and drink, and it was all delicious. By the end of the night, it didn’t feel like a tour; it felt like we were out with friends. I would highly recommend not just a tourist, in particular the Alternative Tapas tour.
