Shawn Hennessey

Born in Canada by mistake, WLT founder Shawn has been living – and tapeando –  in Seville since 1993 and has found her true home. Her Sevilla Tapas website, started in 2007, is probably the best English language information resource on tapas in Seville, and this depth of knowledge underpins her tour business, and her involvement in local gastronomy. Dubbed Sevilla’s “Queen of Tapas” by the Sunday Times she has also been featured in the Wall Street Journal and Daily Telegraph, among others. With over 3,000 tapas bars in Sevilla it’s easy to go wrong and, as Shawn always tells her guests, “you don’t have time for mediocre”. Instagram: @sevillatapas

Nell Drake

She is now living in Sevilla while studying at the university, and has fallen in love with the city. With her knowledge of gastronomy and Spanish traditions she is the perfect host to share the delicious experience of Sevilla with you.
