City Experiences has announced that the European culinary tour provider Devour Tours will join the organization’s growing portfolio of land-based experience offerings. Devour Tours spans five different countries and eight different cities, including Madrid, Barcelona, Seville and San Sebastian, Spain; Paris, France; Rome, Italy; Lisbon, Portugal; and London, England. As part of the global experience provider Walks, Devour Tours will also further extend its portfolio of culinary offerings as it introduces guests to authentic local food and vibrant culture through a variety of specially curated and exclusive excursions from the people and communities that know them best.
Devour Tours employs a team of local experts to serve as guides in each destination, offering shared insight and personal commentary to create a unique experience for each and every tour. The company has expanded from tours of fresh markets, street vendors and restaurants to walking wine tastings in Barcelona, flamenco feasts in Seville, family walking tours and gourmet dining experiences in unique restaurants. Devour Tours connects curious travelers to a place’s unique history through its cuisine in a way that helps local culture thrive.
Co-founded in 2012 by Lauren Aloise, James Blick and Alejandro Cabrera during the economic recession as a way to support struggling local eateries, the first Devour Tour was a deep dive into Spain’s food culture with an experience set in a traditional market in the center of historic Madrid. The first tours highlighted the difficulties of keeping small businesses relevant in a quickly changing economic landscape.
Walks is a global leader in tours and activities, operating sightseeing tours, food tours, and day trips in 15 cities around the world including Rome, Paris, Barcelona, London, New York City and San Francisco. Earlier this year, Walks also joined City Experiences’ portfolio of land-based experience companies.
City Experiences represents a diverse portfolio of water- and land-based experiences in major travel destinations worldwide, offering locals and tourists alike a broad range of global experiences.
