A great tour, food and some drinks - If you were looking for a good way to spend an afternoon, see the sites of downtown Madrid, and enjoy some great local food, then this is the tour for you. We had a great tour guide, IOANNA, and she just did a great job for us.

Not to be missed! - We enjoyed a delightful, delicious food tasting with Carolyn. Every dish came with Spanish history and how it fits into today’s Madrid. Each food stop showed off its unique speciality, and made us feel a part of the culture. Carolyn was an a wonderful hostess. We highly recommend this food experience.

Fun & tasty walk around Madrid city centre - Even when you live in Madrid, there is always something new to learn about your city. Sirsa, our guide, was the perfect host on this tour of various establishments where we sampled typical dishes that are sometimes overlooked because they are so commonplace. The details about the city and our understanding of gastronomy, combined with just the right amount of history, were the key to making this tour such a wonderful experience. Thank you!
