Absolutely a must do! Not only do you get to taste classic (and tasty) Spanish tapas and drinks but it is a perfect introduction to the complicated city and history that is Madrid. Jorge was fantastic and we couldn’t have asked for a better tour.

Maria (Joe) was an amazing tour guide. She gave us the history of Spain while taking us to great restaurants for delicious tapas and plenty to drink. Family friendly, but also a tour for friends, couples, and solo travelers. Thanks, Joe, for an excellent food tour.
