Wonderful private tour

We are a group of 8 friends. We booked a private tapas tour and Carmen was our tour guide. She is very energetic and told us a lot of background stories about food, Madrid and Spain. We fully enjoyed our tour. Highly recommend a private tour.

Nice tapas tour in Madrid

My friends and I booked a private tapas tour of Madrid last Friday. It was our third day in Madrid, and it was raining, but the experience was well worth it. Our guide took us to several restaurants in the historic center where we sampled delicious food and drinks. I highly recommend this tour if it's your first time in Madrid because it's a very comprehensive tour where you learn about the local cuisine and its history.

Tasty and fun

Very nice experience. Carmen is an enthusiastic guide who gives a lot of tips for Madrid during the tour. The stops are always well chosen and not the typical “tourist traps”.

Great tapas tour

Carmen, our guide, made this tour very fun and engaging. It was a great mix of learning about the city's history and culture, as well as trying local food! I definitely recommend this tour to people looking for a relaxed, small-group experience where you feel like you're friends with the guide.

I RECOMMEND

I booked this private tapas tour for my co-workers coming to Madrid for a convention that took place that morning. Everything went perfectly. All my colleagues (from different countries) went on tour very happy and knowing more about Madrid. The guide, Carmen, was very nice and patient. He took us to several tapas bars where we tasted his specialties, such as garlic prawns, cod croquettes, mushrooms etc, and of course chocolate with churros. It was a memorable night. I recommend this tour if you...read more
