We had a fantastic time in Spain and Portugal on our tour set up through Eat & Walkabout! From start to finish, everything was seamless: accommodations, transportation, local guides, and of course, the incredible food and wine experiences. We did the Southern Spain to Northern Portugal: A Gastronomic & Cultural Tailor-made Tour, and it was truly the trip of a lifetime.

Every stop on the tour was thoughtfully curated, from the vibrant markets and tapas bars in Andalusia to the elegant wine estates in the Douro Valley. We especially appreciated how the tour balanced cultural immersion with culinary exploration. Whether it was savoring jamón ibérico in Seville or tasting Portuguese wines with cheeses in Lisbon, every meal felt like a deeper connection to the places we visited.

Eat & Walkabout not only crafted an unforgettable itinerary but also organized fantastic local sightseeing tours, ensuring we experienced the rich history, art, and traditions of each region. The guides were knowledgeable and passionate, adding so much depth to each destination.

Highly recommend them for anyone looking to explore the region through its cuisine and culture. We would definitely use them again for future adventures!

 I met Sean (the owner) during Covid lockdown time when the only way to travel was virtually. I usually plan and book our European vacations myself, but I was so impressed with Sean that we reached out to him and his company Eat & Walkabout to help us plan our month in Portugal in November 2023. Sean and Tiernan organized a series of food and city walking tours, hotels and private transfers in Lisbon, the Algarve and Alentejo regions and Evora. Each tour was led by a very personable and knowledgeable English speaking local guide who adapted their tours to our interests and abilities.

The private transfers with English speaking drivers (who were also tour guides along the drive) were always prompt and professional and took extra time and care to ensure we reached our destination safely. One driver even helped us overcome the stress of the entry security system at our Vrbo and another driver escorted us (and our luggage) to the security area in the frantic Lisbon airport.
