This was a ton of fun. Nacho (our guide) served as interpreter for all of the wineries (none of the owners/winemakers spoke english). Not only did he interpret well - he knew his way around a wine glass. Being a small winery owner/ winemaker - he flawlessly handled all of my technical questions. Plenty of good nibbles at each stop - good enough to cover lunch. A broad range of wine tasting, including barrel samples. Hey - don’t pass up the great Olive Oil choices at one of the wineries - we didn’t!

How wonderfully knowledgeable Ishmael our tour guide was. We learned so much and had the best time! The snacks at each vineyard were terrific and the perfect amount!

This was one of the best wine tours I have done. Ismael was the perfect host and very informative on the wines, the wineries and wine in general. This was a birthday gift for my 30 odd year old son and myself and we thoroughly enjoyed it. All the wineries were slightly different and the wine tasting amounts were very generous. There was not a full blown meal but every place laid out a variety of nibbles and we definitely were not hungry. I was concerned beforehand that the price was a bit much but I was so wrong as it was worth every penny and I am angling to do it again with my girlfriends. We were also lucky enough to see some local traditions in one of the small wine towns which added to the day! The wine I purchased was also extremely reasonable and not something I'd be able to get in the UK.

My husband and I, refugees from America, live here in Spain and have a lot of friends and family visiting. On my sister´s recent visit, we planned a trip to Madrid to see the museums and other sites. She also scheduled this guided excursion with Gourmet Madrid Tours. While I was a little skeptical and not happy about a 9:30 AM start (this is Spain, after all), I would rate this in the top 5 of all tours I have taken in my many decades of traveling to and living in Spain. Ismael was a delight, very knowledgeable, and funny, and the three wineries we visited were all distinct in both their approach and the types of wines they produced. I´m not easily convinced to purchase things on tours like this, but I am pretty sure that we bought at least one bottle from each place we visited. I am also pretty sure that those wines lasted less than two days in our care. My recommendations: eat before you start the tour and ship everything home directly from the source, otherwise you will be both tipsy and sans wine.

We did the tour to the Madrid Countryside Wineries and Alberto, our guide. He was very informative about the history of Madrid as well as the wineries. Each winery was Wonderful!! We learned a lot about the wineries, the families that ran each one and of course, enjoyed the wine tasting.
