Madrid Food Tour: Tapas, Drinks And Delights With A Local

Luis was a fantastic host! He was very knowledgeable, known by the restaurant owners, and made the experience a pleasure.

Luis was awesome and very knowledgeable!

Osmel met us promptly at the meeting point. He explained what we were going to do. Amazing garlic prawns and local wine. Then super tortilla still wobbly! Osmel explained the history of tapa and the food we tasted. Then the jamon shop. Delicious tasting plate 3 types of jamon and 2 sausage. He also told us about Iberian pigs and how the jamon is made. Then Plaza Major for calamari sandwich. And to top it off hot choclate and churros!! So good. Thank you a memorable day.

Osmel was a great guide. Tremendous historical and cultural insights in addition to his foodie knowledge. The pacing was just right and the five places we visited all were varied and memorable . Highly recommended. The best tour of this type I’ve ever done.

Louis was a delight! Knowledgeable and friendly he guided us through an afternoon of tasty treats. I highly recommend the tour with Louis as your guide!

Great intro to the food and wine in Portugal. Our guide Nicole was great and made it so fun. Highly recommend this tour

Luis was very nice and gave us information about the city and the food we ate during the tour. Ot was very interesting to learn all kinds of things about the city and the traditions people have here. Overall, my family and I absolutely loved our experience with Luis.

Davide, our guide did a great job sharing the history of Spain through the architecture and food scene of the country. The stops provided a great cross-section of the Tapas offerings of the city. This was definitely worth the price, you receive more value than the cost.

Luis gave us a wonderful tour of the dining options in and around the Plaza Mayor and Plaza Santa Ana. He gave great insight into the tapas culture of Madrid choosing several establishments that had served their specialties for over 100 years. Every course was different and very tasty.

Davide was very knowledgeable, friendly, and we learned a lot about Madrid.

Adolfo was indeed the sweetness at the end of our Madrid Tapas food tour! Five stars and beyond! Thank you for a bit of Spain’s history and a whole lot of authentic bites and sips! Highly recommend him as your private tour guide!

Luis [foodie] was prompt at meeting time. Was very good at ice breakers for the group of 2 UK couples and 2 US couples. Very open and knowledgeable about food and showed real passion for his job. I do not eat meat but am pescitarian and did not go hungry. The distance was about right and spread into different districts for wider food analysis.

Luis was amazing! A great guide and he was so enthusiastic and had a great attitude. I would encourage anyone to do this tour

Had a wonderful experience today with Luis. The food on the tour was delicious and huge portions so go with an empty stomach.

We go to a lot of food tours and this ranks near the top. 5 stops, just one special food each place - a great way to do it, I wasn't over-full and the things we ate were truly the best of the best. Osmel was a great guide.

Fun and delicious tapa tour. Shrimp, calamari, chocolate and more. I never would have found these tapa bars without the tour. Adolfo did an excellent job! I highly recommend this tour.

Adolfo was our guide and after being 21 days traveling we weren’t expecting to learn new things but we were wrong! Adolfo was so warm and knowledgeable! Took us to these special little places and the local dishes. It was amazing! I would book a tour with him again. Thank you for all the recommendations! Amanos a Madrid!!

We really enjoyed this tour. Lidia our guide is a local resident with a wealth of knowledge and tremendous pride in her city and country. Our whole family enjoyed the food and drink so much. I can highly recommend this tour to families, couples and single travelers. Easy walking and a great selection of foods and drinks to sample.

From the very beginning of our tour, Nicole made us feel welcome and well cared for. With just two couples in our group, we enjoyed a very personal and relaxed experience. The tour offered an excellent combination of sightseeing, local history, and food tasting. Nicole was extremely knowledgeable about both the historical sites we visited and the food we sampled. We thoroughly enjoyed all the stops, and her interesting commentary added a great deal to the experience. The tour actually ran a little longer than scheduled, but we considered that a bonus! The extra time gave us an opportunity to learn even more about the fascinating places we were visiting. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience, from the interesting sights and engaging history to the excellent food. Nicole was a wonderful guide, and we would happily recommend her tour to others.

Fantastic experience with a brilliant guide. This is a must do if you're in Madrid - we tried 5 different places, all delicious, and our guide Osmel was brilliant. So friendly and knowledgeable, he answered all our questions and gave great recommendations. Can't recommend this experience enough!

What a fabulous tour I had with the Tour Guide Luis: he was amazing! He took us to several places and we ended up with chocolate and churros. I would do it all over again annd ansk for Luis. Thank you Luis.

The Food tour was a wonderful experience. Our guide Alphonso was very personable and knowledgeable. And you can tell he enjoyed what he was doing. He helped us to see and taste and experience authentic style food from the region of Madrid. I would recommend this to anyone who would like to experience what true and authentic food from Madrid tastes like.

A great experience on our first visit to Madrid. Adolfo introduced us to some local specialties. The best places to enjoy different tapas. The best tortilla was down my favourite.

Very nice although only two glasses of wine- the other 3 stops were water only. Would have enjoyed trying another wine, vermouth or cup of coffee.

This is for sure a walking and standing tour, so if you’re expecting to sit down - that’s not going to happen. Tour guide David was awesome - wove in history and food thru the tour, so much we went back the next day to some of the places mentioned to explore a bit more.

Great food, hit all the classics. Our guide Osmel was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Great all-around experience.

Osmel was an amazing guide, had a wonderful experience

We had such a wonderful experience on our Madrid food tour! 🇪🇸 We got to try so many delicious local specialties, including gambas al ajillo, Spanish tortilla, the famous calamari sandwich, local charcuterie, and churros with chocolate. It was such a fun way to experience Madrid’s food culture and discover some local favorites. Our tour guide, Osmel, was fantastic! He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful, and he made the experience even more enjoyable by sharing interesting information about the food and local culture. Most importantly, he was very accommodating of my mom’s many food allergies and made sure she felt comfortable throughout the tour. That level of care really meant a lot to us! We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Madrid, especially if you want to experience authentic Spanish food with a wonderful guide. Thank you, Osmel, for making this such a memorable experience for us!

Very good food and drinks across 5 different restaurants, Ousmel was great in making sure we enjoyed our experience, he also told some history about Madrid.

Lidia was amazing and so so knowledgeable about the city. We went to 5 different stops and got to sample so much food! She also gave us a map of recommendations for the rest of our trip which we are so thankful for!! She even sent extra coffee spots because I said I loved coffee! 10/10 would recommend doing your tour with Lidia!

Wonderful tour! Davide was our guide and was very knowledgeable and personable. We hit a variety of tapas locations and everything was delicious. Our group were a great group of people from different countries and a pleasure to tour with. I would highly recommended this tour when staying in Madrid.

We had a great time. We enjoyed testing the food. We were not really interested in learning history about the city. We thought we were on a food tour, but everything went well and we did enjoy it.

Carlos was terrific as were each of the chosen stopping points. Great guide, variety of food, lots of information shared, a friendly group and a beautiful day made it a wonderful experience!

Excellent value. Very informative both from historical and culinary perspectives. Guide Davide was excellent

Really enjoyed our tapas and wine tour in Madrid with Osmel! We got to hear about the culture and history of the smaller neighborhoods around Madrid, and Osmel kept it interesting and engaging for our group! Great tour guide. Would book him again.

We had Osmel as our tour guide he was great and very informative of the history of madrid. We tried some great foods and wines while also learning some history of the city, we really enjoyed our tour!

Our tour guide was Osmel and he did a wonderful job. He took us to 5 different places where we had wine, tapas, a sandwich, and dessert. He also told us a lot about the history of the different restaurants and plazas. I would highly recommend this tour.
