1.Madrid Tapas & Wine Tasting Walking Tour – Small Group Local Bars

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3,644 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $93Our pick

Walk Madrid’s Literary Quarter with a guide such as Noemi, Carlos, or Juan Felipe, stopping at up to four local bars for more than 12 tapas and a drink at each. Expect Iberian ham, cod, chickpea stew, eggplant with honey, Spanish wines, and lively food stories in a group of no more than 12.

“I booked this tour for my wife and I during our first anniversary trip to Madrid. We decided to dedicate the trip to eating all of the fantastic cuisine from the city by playing Tapas Bingo. This tour easily was the highlight of our trip. The food we ate in every restaurant was fantastic, fresh, and authentic. The format of the tour was great. But the two reasons why I am writing this review is for the group we shared the experience with and our guide Juan Felipe. Our group was small, around 10. My wife and I are from the US, and we were joined by a great group…”

Our guide was superb and gave us a lot of useful and interesting information. The food was varied and delicious and choice of drinks complimented the food. Being a small group of just 8 persons was an advantage - enjoyed every moment of the experience.”
