About this experience
Bond with fellow foodies and eat your way through Madrid on our Tapas Tour. Over two and a half hours, you’ll explore La Latina and Madrid Centro. They may be popular neighbourhoods, but we know where the locals actually eat. Along the way, we'll see cultural gems, from ancient city ruins to San Miguel Market and the iconic Plaza Mayor.
Visit five authentic eateries to enjoy nine classic tapas paired with five drinks. Expect award-winning Spanish tortilla, stuffed mushrooms, squid-ink sandwiches, and chocolate with churros paired with sweet wine, tinto de verano, and a modern vermouth cocktail spritzed with gin.
Between bites, you’ll meet the locals behind the culinary creations and hear stories about tapas culture. The best part? There’s no planning required. We handle the menu, reservations, and route, so just show up hungry, raise your glass, and enjoy. Whether you’re travelling with friends, family, as a couple, or solo, if food is your love language, you’re in the right place.
