This was an amazing experience! Our guide and Chef, Diego, put together a fantastic tapas and wine tour, followed by a delicious dinner. He is very knowledgeable and explains the food and history of the restaurant at each stop. The whole event was very fun and delicious! He took us to places that not everyone may know about. And it's a great opportunity to get to know the traditional tapas and wine in Madrid. The small group experience was a plus, and the participants have a chance to talk and enjoy conversation throughout the evening. I highly recommend this tour!

Fun

Carla_B, Jan 2026
I arrived a few minutes late but our host (Beni, I hope I remembered that correctly) wasted no time catching me up, everything was already set up for me by the time I got there. The food and the dishes that we made were excellent I cannot even tell you which one was my favorite everything was spectacular. Chorizo, stuffed peppers, shrimp, mushrooms, a fantastic dessert! The location was also very close to the Metro which made it easy to get there. I would Def recommend this class.

You can’t go wrong with this outing! It was a blast! Diego was the best. He had great recommendations so try to take this tour early on your vacation

This tour is a must!

Yolanda_G, Dec 2025
Diego was WONDERFUL! We went to 4 different locations to sample a tapa and drink. He included the history of the locations (La Ferreteria from the 1800s and on the Michelin Guide), spoke of the Spanish social culture of being out, enjoying good company. He introduced me to foods I would never have thought to try, and ended the night with a beautifully curated dinner back at the cooking school. I will definitely be doing this tour again when I return to Madrid.

Had an amazing time!

We had a fabulous time on this tour visiting a variety of local tapas bar, each one very different and unique from the other. Dinner at the end with all of new friends was so much fun that we didn't want the night to end!

Deborah_J, Jun 2025
I highly recommend this tapas/wine tour led by Diego who curated a wonderful mix of 4 uniquely different stops for tapas and wines. We met at the Cooking Club where we met our group and started with a glass of wine. We walked a neighborhood that we loved and we probably would not have noticed or appreciated, if not for tour. And the finish was a lovely dinner prepared by Diego. Loved every minute and will be recommending to others.

Eating, Drinking, and Fun! Oh my!!!

Johnny_P, Jun 2025
If you love food and want to learn more about traditional Spanish tapas—and some updated versions—this is a MUST! Even though this a walking tour, you stay in a four-block area, so it’s accessible to a wide range of participants. Especially memorable is Ferretia, a former hardware store. (While the tasting happens on the main floor, there’s an absolutely incredible restaurant and event space downstairs. You must check it out, if possible.) After posting pictures on Instagram, we learned that friends and former colleagues had done this tour previously. Everyone rated it most highly. A highlight of our time in Spain!

Amazing experience where...

Terry_L, Jun 2025
Amazing experience where everyone starts off as strangers and leaves as friends. We have done several tapas tours and this is the best by far.

Lovely Evening exploring Local Tapas Bars

Shauna_C, May 2025
Had a beautiful evening exploring some of Madrids local Tapas bars with my husband and another lovely couple. Diego was our guide and he was very knowledgeable and a great host. Definitely an experience I would do again and recommend.

An exceptional culinary experience.

MaryAnn_A, May 2025
If you love to try new wines and new foods this is the perfect tour for you. We visited four Tapas Bar and our amazing guide Diego made sure we had a different Tapa and a wine that matched in each place. The finale was a dinner with an entree followed by a dessert. Since besides our guide we were only 6 we got to have quality conversations with our fellow travelers.

Tapas treasure trove

Shelly_M, Apr 2025
Diego is amazing!! He took us to some of the most unique places to sample some of the most scrumptious tapas, wine, and vermouth. I’m certain we would never have found these places on our own. We met a friendly group of like minded travelers and enjoyed a delicious dinner, dessert, and wine in a unique setting to end our evening. This is easily the best food tour we have taken.

Great Experience!

Talli_P, Mar 2025
Our guide, Diego, was fantastic! The food stops had great tapas matched well with wine. All were in a close walking distance. The dinner with wine was fantastic. I highly recommend this tour.

The best food and wine tour in Madrid

Thomas_S, Mar 2025
We done this tour last night as a group of 6 in total and it was an excellent night. We stopped at 4 different bars/restaurants and each one was amazing. We then had a main course on our return to the Cooking Clubhouse. We all thoroughly enjoyed this tour, our host, Diego, was the perfect guy to lead the tour. He’s very knowledgeable and friendly.

Incredible food and a great way to see some of the culinary scene in Madrid. I would recommend this to anyone looking for good company on a night out in Madrid.

Fun, good food and great tour guide

Marsha_O, Nov 2024
Diego was great! We enjoyed the tapas tour and the dinner. We also had a great time with the other people on the tour. There was only 5 and i liked the personal touch.

Fun night out and great way to explore Madrid

Jennifer_B, Nov 2024
We had a fun group and really enjoyed the variety of venues that felt like true local favorites. The food was really good, but note to vegetarians to check on options in advance since they can be somewhat limited.

A tasty experience

Rachel_G, Nov 2024
Diego was our guide for the evening. My sister & I had a delightful evening tasting wines & tapas. The ambience of each place was warm and inviting. We also had a great group of people to share this wonderful experience with. Thank you Diego for professionalism & caring heart.

Great, Funny Foodie Evening in Madrid

Laura_C, Nov 2024
Went solo - found this via a Google search, and lucked out with such an immediately welcoming group of individuals for the evening. Diego has a great sense of humor, incredible knowledge of the area, dishes, and food & wine in general. I cannot recommend this highly enough!

Incredible food, wine, locations and a great guide named Diego!

Brent_F, Nov 2024
Personable guide, Diego, and amazing locations to enjoy wonderful Spanish cuisine and wine. Especially memorable was the former hardware store turned gourmet restaurant and the exquisite Iberian hams. Great group of other guests made for a memorable evening. This is a must if visiting Madrid!

A+ tapas experience.

Chris_G, Oct 2024
Excellent experience. Great introduction to tapas and wonderful guide. Top notch food. Professional and courteous.

A highly recommended wonderful experience

Chad_H, Oct 2024
This was a wonderful tour. The group is kept small so it was very easy to interact. The out of the way tapas restaurants were exactly what we wanted to find. Definitely not the straight tourist type places. Finally, the ending main course meal was exquisite. Great job!

A must do experience in Madrid

Rachel_P, Oct 2024
The loveliest experience for our first time in Madrid. Diego was a wonderful host and was so knowledgeable about the different good foods and wines we tried on the tapas tour. Coming back to the cooking clubhouse to the private dining area with lights and brickwork was a magical setting for dinner. The two courses were beautifully presented, the flavours were excellent and the wine pairing was perfect.

Best Tour Yet

degeigert, Oct 2024
This was an absolutely magical experience. The 4 tapas restaurants were eclectic and charming. Diego was personable and knowledgeable and also an incredible cook. The final dinner after the tour was intimate in the cellar and could not have been better. I would highly recommend this experience. It was so magical, we revisited one of the tapas restaurants again today and had a marvelous paella. Kudos to Diego…
