Private Tapas Route in Málaga

Each stop on the Málaga tapas route includes a tapa with its drink. The type of tapa may vary depending on the day and the produce available, but it's always tied to Málaga's traditional food culture, which the guide explains at each spot.

Yes. The whole route is done on foot around central Málaga and the distances between the three venues are short. It's an easy walk with frequent stops, so just comfortable shoes are recommended.

Of course. At all three venues you can swap wine or other alcoholic drinks for non-alcoholic options such as water, soft drinks or other available alternatives. The guide helps you order whatever you prefer at each venue.

At Casa del Guardia, Málaga's oldest tavern, they make their own wines. During the route the guide tells you more about this tradition and the role of sweet wine in the city.

The guide says this is an activity anyone can do. The route is flat and around the centre, with stops at bars and a market. If anyone uses a wheelchair or has reduced mobility, it's worth mentioning when booking so access can be checked and the pace adapted if needed.

There's no problem bringing children. The route has a children's price (3-10) and under 3s go free, so families can take part. At each stop, the tapa and drink can be adjusted to whatever suits them best.

There's a minimum of 2 people to do the tapas route; if you're coming alone, you'll need to book as 2 adults. The maximum group size depends on the venues' organisation and capacity, so for very large groups you should check in advance. The maximum per booking is 60 people.

The three venues included on the route — Casa del Guardia, the Atarazanas Market and Indiano — were chosen for their significance in the city and for what they represent within Málaga's food culture and their work with fresh produce.

During the route, the guide can point you to where to find some of the products you've tried, especially at the Atarazanas Market and other shops in the centre. At the end of the route you can ask for specific recommendations to keep exploring local food on your own.
