About this tour
This short planning call is built for anyone wanting to make the most of a morning at Mercado Nuestra Señora de África, the city's covered market since 1944. Pablo talks through which stalls open earliest and which sell what is worth carrying home. It is a conversation rather than a walk.
The call is short and practical, starting with a few questions about what interests you most. Pablo works out a short route through the market with you, and sends a written note with stall names afterwards.
It suits early risers planning their own visit to the market. It works best booked the evening before.

- A 30-minute call with a local guide
- Honest tips on where to eat, stay and what to skip
- A short follow-up note with every place mentioned

Questions about this tour
What will the call cover?
The guide talks you through Santa Cruz de Tenerife: where to go, what to eat, and answers to whatever you ask.
What happens if the call drops?
The guide will try you again straight away.
Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?
Anything, any time. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
Do I need to buy or cook anything?
No. This is a conversation: the guide describes the dishes and where to find them, so you can try them yourself whenever suits you.
