5.00A wonderful, fun and informative tour of Madrid's food scene with 4 stops, multiple dishes and drinks. This tour was such a great time because our tour guide Carmen was such a delightful and gregarious presenter. Her enthusiasm and knowledge of Spanish wine and food was infectious and everyone on the tour had a great night.
Noemi was wonderful, and so were the wines!

5.00The vibes of the bars we visited and the tapas we had in them was varied and things I might not normally think to order whilst all being delish. Our guide Juanfe was incredible - he not only shared great info about the tapas, wines, and city as we walked around, but was also just generally really fun and engaging which made for a great evening!
Excellent tour with an excellent guide
