Fabulous! Our tour guide, Mario, was a dream. We were lucky to meet 3 other couples with whom we had a delightful time. We highly recommend this tour for those who enjoy wine and tapas and wish to be enlightened on Madrid’s history and character from someone who is clearly proud of his heritage!

Excellent experience!! Our group was a blast, and Mario was FANTASTIC!!! He was so knowledgeable and charming. He went above and beyond to make sure we walked at a comfortable pace, had everything we needed, enjoyed all the food, answered all our questions, and got home safely. The mushrooms and beef cheeks were favorites!
