You should definitely try out this activity - it's awesome! - This experience is absolutely worth every penny! I had the pleasure of trying this for the second time, and let me tell you, the tapas places we went to were beyond amazing. The food was simply delightful, and the drinks were of the highest quality. Our tour guide, Alberto, was so knowledgeable and provided us with in-depth explanations about all the delicious treats we were enjoying. Plus, there was no rush at all at each stop, allowing us plenty of time to savor both the drinks and tapas. I highly recommend giving this a go!

Highly recommended - Highly recommended. Good tapas, nice drinks, and our guide created a lovely relaxed & friendly atmosphere as well as sharing interesting information about the food. By the end of the tour it felt more like being out with a bunch of friends than with total strangers. A lot of fun without it feeling at all forced.

Fantastic food/drink tour! Very accommodating for dietary restrictions - Alberto was a fantastic tour guide! I did the tour while pregnant (therefore I couldn’t have alcohol, unpasteurized cheese or cured/uncooked meats) and he was extremely accommodating and thoughtful even with a full group! We went to 4 official places and had about 3 tapas at each place - all of which were amazing! I was very full by the end and he even offered to get us more food if we weren’t full. He even came with us to two additional places after the tour ended and it was soooo much fun. He is very genuine and cares about showing visitors authentic and quality food/drinks. He took us to an area that was not tourist-y. Highly recommend this tour!

Incredibly authentic tour experience - Ioanna was incredible at sharing facts about food, presenting it well, while entwining it with her personal life. This made the tour really come to life and was incredibly authentic.

Must Do Especially for a Foodie!!! - This by far was my husband and I's best part of visiting Madrid. The guides are very knowledgeable. You can tell they love what they do and enjoy exposing the food culture of Spain to tourists. They will give you even more recommendations around the city as well. Learning the history of every place they bring you to is even more special. Would recommend to anyone coming to Madrid. We can't thank y'all enough for having this tour.

It didn’t happen! - My daughter & I were excited about a tapas crawl our last night in Madrid. The Tapas Crawl was cancelled by the tour operator due to not having the required number of people (4). The tour operator promised a refund, but, since none has yet been posted to my credit card (13 days later), I called Trip Advisor. They said they will ask the tour operator a send a request for a refund ($187.96). It was disappointing that the tapas crawl was cancelled but more disappointing that they didn’t request a refund for us as they had promised.
