Authentic tapas bars with a lovely guide! - We had a lovely tour with Carmen! It was just the 2 of us together with Carmen. We really appreciated the authentic tapas bars she visited with us. The food was really delicious, the wine and beer as well. We also got a lot of information on the region and some specific (funny) insights. We received some tips to eat for the coming days, which we used the other days. Great thanks you to Carmen, you were really friendly!

Amazing ! Perfecto! - I CANNOT say enough good things about this tour and about Carmen. She was the PERFECT Guide. Her personality was warm and friendly. She was knowledgeable and took us to amazing restaurants for tapas. EVERYTHING was good! The garlic shrimp was soooo good that we went back the next day on our own. I don’t eat mushrooms but the way they were prepared was delicious! Don’t be afraid to try the things you typically don’t eat , you may be surprised. Excellent tour.

Intimate, Delicious, and Personal – The Perfect Tapas Tour Experience! - I was looking for small-group tapas tours. I was tired of going on tours with 20 or more people and not understanding anything. You can't talk. I felt like I was in an amusement park, going from one place to another. Until I found Carmen and her tour. It was simply brilliant. Small groups. Yesterday there were just four of us, so much more intimate and private. I felt like a friend of hers showing me everything about the city. The food and drinks were delicious, and afterward, the hot chocolate with churros—ummm, so delicious. If you're looking for a small, more intimate tour where you can chat and talk with the guide and ask questions, this is the tour for you. It's worth it.

Great tour!! - Great tour and great guide. Carmen adapted very well to my needs. I had booked the tour for my husband and me, but my husband got sick and couldn't join us that evening. It was just Carmen and me... and the experience couldn't have been better. Since I was the only one on the tour, Carmen adapted perfectly to me and my needs. We went to several tapas bars, ending at a chocolate shop to try the famous hot chocolate with churros, and it was delicious! She well deserves a good tip!

Highly recommend. - It was a fantastic night. Carmen, the guide, gave us a lot of information about tapas and drinks, as well as the history of Madrid and Spain. I also liked that there were only a few of us, and there weren't any large groups that end up overwhelming you, making you unable to understand anything and unable to ask any questions. It's without a doubt one of the best tapas tours I've done so far. I highly recommend it.

Tapas - She was in such a hurry to get it done! It was no fun. Very little history and the tapas were good but talk was awkward
