This tapas and wine tour was well worth it even though we’ve traveled Spain in the past. Abel was a fantastic guide. The variety of tapas and the matching wine selections were excellent! Also got some insight on the local food history. Definitely recommend taking advantage of this tour.

Great way to spend an evening in Madrid. Our guide Augustin is very friendly, knowledgeable and engaging. There were about a dozen of us and time just flew between trying and learning about various dishes, drinking wine and meeting new people. Both educational and entertaining. Highly recommended.

Overview

Taste your way through Madrid’s markets, restaurants, and stylish bars on a hassle-free food tour with tapas included along the way. Along the route, you’ll stop at three authentic local venues — including a traditional tavern and a century-old restaurant — where you’ll enjoy generous portions of real Spanish cuisine, not just finger food. A local guide will introduce you to a wide range of dishes, such as Asturian-style chorizo slow-cooked in cider, stuffed mushrooms, padrón peppers, and meat cheeks with smashed potatoes all paired with wine, beer, or soft drinks.
  • Enjoy a Spanish food tour that showcases local haunts
  • No need to stop and pay: Tastings are included
  • Choose between different daily departure times
  • Small-group tour ensures an intimate atmosphere
  • Visit 3 authentic spots — from a tavern to a century-old venue — for hearty tastings of true local cuisine

Good tour, but not tour of rooftops.

Tanya_M, Apr 2026
I can thoroughly enjoyed this tour Abel, our tour guide was fantastic. It was great fun and the couple restaurants we went to were great. There were a couple stops for history, which was good and interesting. . I would not call this a tour with rooftop views at the end you end at a rooftop, but it is not a tour of rooftops with wine and tapas. .

I expected more based on...

Mindy_B, Apr 2026
I expected more based on prior reviews - the tapas were good but I expected a more engaging experience. The guide was nice but I didn’t feel like I learned much and wasn’t clear was the particular stops/restaurants were chosen.

Nice tour but limited food options

LaChandra_W, Apr 2026
Nice experience but if you don’t eat shellfish or pork not the tour for you. We expressed food limitation before and were told there would be other options. But was basically only given cheese and crackers as substitutions. The guide was amazing however!

Not our best tour

Dawn_W, Apr 2026
“Rooftop” was not really accurate. Only one stop was a rooftop and it was the last one. Probably would’ve been better to start with that while we still had daylight and could enjoy the view. Some good tapas along the way but not really any explanation of the wines/drinks. Also think the group was too large (17 people).

Mario plus tapas equals a fun night!

Julie_W, Mar 2026
This tour was fun from start to finish! Mario was a most excellent guide-he filled the time with the history of Madrid and made the tour feel like hanging out with friends. The food was delicious. We never felt rushed, loved that each place we stopped was ready for the group with a place we could sit, eat, and get to know the other people in our group. Would recommend this tour to anyone new to the city and would definitely recommend Mario as your guide.

Great food and new friends!

Julie_N, Mar 2026
We had a great time on this food tour. Every stop was terrific. Our guide Mario did not steer us wrong on drink recommendations and we ended the night feeling like our tour group was our new friends.

Absolutely Fantastic Tapas and Wine tour!!

Sheri_B, Mar 2026
Our guide Augustin was amazing. He was personable, knowledgeable and very funny. Our tour consisted of 14 of us. We walked around different areas of Madrid. The 4 different tapas and wine were first rate. All the bars/restaurants/venues were top notch. We ended our tour on a rooftop bar overlooking the Gran Via ("The Broadway of Madrid") on an absolutely beautiful night. We had such a fabulous time, we all actually stayed longer after the conclusion of the tour. We absolutely recommend this tour to anyone looking to have a great experience in Madrid!!

Wonderful tapas tour

A girls trip to Madrid. This tapas tour was a lovely way to start our trip, Our guide, Mario, was knowledgeable and engaging.

Absolutely Fantastic Tour – Would Do It Again in a Heartbeat!

Dawn_H, Jan 2026
This tapas and wine tour was one of the highlights of our time in Madrid. Mario was an exceptional guide—extremely knowledgeable, warm, and genuinely personable. He shared so much insight about the city, the food, and the culture, all while making everyone feel completely at ease. I’m a pescatarian, and the accommodations were seamless and thoughtful—I never once felt like I was missing out. Every stop had delicious options for me, which made the experience even more enjoyable. My teenage son and I both loved the tour, which says a lot because it struck the perfect balance of fun, learning, and amazing food. The rooftop views were stunning, the wine flowed generously, and the other people on the tour were incredibly friendly, which made the whole evening even better. It felt like spending the night out with new friends rather than being on a “tour.” Honestly, we would do this tour again tonight if we could—just at different restaurants. That’s how good it was. Highly, highly recommend!

Great foodie trip

Lynne_C, Jan 2026
Fabulous trip around Madrid central area with Mario, good food and great company of various nationalities, All the food and drinks were local, restaurants were varied and finishing in the roof top bar was the icing on the cake
