Walking tour with great guide, great personality, depth of knowledge, and fun! - Andrea was the best guide we have ever had on one of these kinds of tours (and we try to Do them in every new place we travel). She was warm, engaging, told us a great deal, balanced between history and the food were we eating. She was not boring for one minute. I was truly sad when the evening ended. I wanted it to continue since it was so much fun. If you get the opportunity to go with Andrea, don’t hesitate. AND, the food places we went were steeped in history and the food delicious!

Great way to try tapas and learn about Madrid - Had a great time on our tour with Eleanor. She was an entertaining host, loked after everyone's dietary requirements, and had lots of useful information about how to have a fun time in Madrid. The food and drink was all very tasty, and wide range of tapas to try and plenty of it as well so we felt very well fed by the end of the evening.

Outstanding food tour! - This was one of the best food tours we’ve ever done! Isaac was an amazing guide, sharing the history and culture of Madrid, as well as his passion for the city. The food was outstanding, and it was such a great experience to sample the tapas specialty of each place we visited, standing elbow to elbow at the bar. Ending the evening with a sit-down experience was the perfect finale for a fantastic evening. We highly recommend this tour!
