Your Itinerary

Plaza de Santa Ana

Meeting Point. Important to be on time. The tour departs on time. Meet your guide in Santa Ana Square, and set off on a tapas crawl of the city, exploring the best bars that only locals really know of. As you stroll, your guide will chat to you about Madrid, the local cuisine and, of course, the tapas bars that no great evening in Madrid should be without! Like all Spanish cities, Madrid has its own regional cuisine with an emphasis on use of local ingredients. Perhaps more so than others, Madrid has been influenced by its immigrant population, who’ve brought in flavors and ideas as cosmopolitan as the city itself. Visit up to four bars on your tour of the town, enjoying wine tastings in each. Sample beautiful Spanish wines made from well-known grapes like tempranillo, malvar, garnacha, and parellada, and enjoy a complimentary tapa (tapas dish) to complement the wine's flavors. Beer and soft drinks (one per bar) are also included should you prefer this to wine! While the dishes vary on each occasion, you can be sure it’s a taste bud tingling treat! Examples of dishes include eggplant with honey, cod brandade, Spanish omelet, Iberian ham and chickpea stew. See the example itinerary for details on the different bars you may visit. Your tapas tour finishes in a centrally located bar so that you’re well-placed to continue your night out independently. ITINERARY -------------------- Bar 1: Head inside an atmospheric Castilian sherry bar, and learn all about fortified wines, from crisp and dry finos to old olorosos. Admire the chalk boards scrawled with daily tapas specials and soak up the atmosphere inside this delightfully old-fashioned bar. Bar 2: Visit a wine bar that doubles up as a store – tucked away behind liquor bottles! If you like what you eat or drink here, then purchase it from the shop to take home. Bar 3: A warm and bustling tavern welcomes you with their open kitchen were you can see how the dishes are prepared Bar 4: Round off your evening in style at a dark and bohemian Madrid tavern, which is still in business after 100 years, you will enjoying a full-bodied glass of wine. Please note that the above itinerary is an example only and may be subject to change.

As typical with these types of tours, a lot depends on your group, and we did have a group who was fun and talkative. We visited 4 establishments, but they felt very "traditional" and therefore a bit touristy in terms of places to go. The food was just okay in my opinion, and some of the food choices (eg shark bites) did not have wide appeal, and some portions were too small to share (eg we had one small dish of rice and another of chick peas with meat to share amongst 12- would have been better to select fewer choices and provide a larger sampling option to the group. No water was offered, only the wine (or in one case, a cider) to "pair" and even the wine wasn't particularly good. Our guide was a bit quiet so can't say I learned a ton about madrid culture or the food either. Not sure the value for the money was really there- so many other good restaurants to try and it's not hard to wander around the areas where we did the tour so we didn't see too many new areas of Madrid either.

The tour was great. It gave my husband and I a chance to really experience the tapas food and Madrid culture. We had tried to find restaurants on our own with no luck. This was great. The food, wine, tour guide and group were wonderful. We ate and spent time with a group of people from many different places. We were able to see areas we would not have known to go to. It really made the trip memorable.

Excellent guide and authentic places, we experienced the Spanish culture and atmosphere. It was simply delicious and wonderful

A great food tour experiencing various Madrid tapas. Loved the garlic prawns, best I’ve ever had. Manfred was a great host and entertained us well for the evening.

Loved exploring Madrid's food scene solo! Tasted amazing dishes at 4 unique spots, including killer garlic shrimp and the best cheesecake ever. Carlos' wine pairings were perfect, and I even met some fellow travelers. Highly recommend! - Carlos

Manfred was extremely knowledgeable about the area we were in , wine and food. This was a great start to our Madrid stay!

Brian_B

We had a very fun food & wine adventure in Madrid with this experience. Our guide was kind and knowledgeable about the city, wines & the food. She seemed genuinely vested as to whether we enjoyed our experience. We were fortunate to have a great group of virtual strangers who were all up for trying anything. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour and leaned a lot along the way! We highly recommend.

Alec_G

Great food, great wine, great company. Good way to spend an afternoon. Plenty of unique Spanish dishes. The tour guide was knowledgable about the food and restaurants. I think she did a great job leading the group. I liked being able to try so many new things at one time.
