Excellent food and culture experience!

Our host Diego was outstanding! You can tell he’s genuinely passionate about what he does — he clearly put real thought and care into creating a curated food and wine experience. If you’re a foodie who appreciates thoughtfully paired wines with each dish, Diego is your guy!

Phenomenal - book it now!

TAKE THIS TOUR. I was surprised that this tour was a bit "hidden" when I searched f0r food tours - it definitely wasn't in the first 20 that popped up. I just now learned they are a newer business....and they are FABULOUS. My boyfriend and I booked the Local Tapas Tour with Private Sit-Down Dinner. Prior to the tour I reached out with a couple questions and also to explain that though I spoke some Spanish, it was pretty minimal. Diego, the tour guide, reached out to me over a week in advanc...read more

Fantastic Tapas & Wine Tour

This wine and tapas tour was one of the highlights of my time in Madrid. From start to finish, it was exceptionally well organised, welcoming, and full of authentic local experiences. The guide Diego was knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about Madrid’s food and wine culture. I learned so much about the the traditions behind the tapas, and the different wines we sampled, all while enjoying a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The selection of venues was excellent, ranging from charm...read more

Sublime.

It is a unique experience. Tapas as the locals do, in specially selected places. The final dinner is exceptional, and our guide Diego is a genius who knows about food, drinks, places, and their history. Without a doubt, we will repeat it the next time we are in Madrid!

6/5 star experience

The title should speak for itself as the experience was really amazing and the crew at the Cooking Clubhouse provided a wonderful time. Diego was our guide and he was extremely accommodating to our busy schedule with timing and made sure we still had the full experience. Diego even sent us a long list of restaurants, night life and other experiences for our next trip. Would highly recommend this activity and any that are hosted by Cooking Clubhouse, they are an awesome crew.
