Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Plaza de Santa Ana, Madrid Spain
Meeting Point. Important to be on time. The tour departs on time.
Meet your guide in Santa Ana Square, and set off on a tapas crawl of the city, exploring the best bars that only locals really know of. As you stroll, your guide will chat to you about Madrid, the local cuisine and, of course, the tapas bars that no great evening in Madrid should be without!
Like all Spanish cities, Madrid has its own regional cuisine with an emphasis on use of local ingredients. Perhaps more so than others, Madrid has been influenced by its immigrant population, who’ve brought in flavors and ideas as cosmopolitan as the city itself.
Visit up to four bars on your tour of the town, enjoying wine tastings in each. Sample beautiful Spanish wines made from well-known grapes like tempranillo, malvar, garnacha, and parellada, and enjoy a complimentary tapa (tapas dish) to complement the wine's flavors. Beer and soft drinks (one per bar) are also included should you prefer this to wine! While the dishes vary on each occasion, you can be sure it’s a taste bud tingling treat! Examples of dishes include eggplant with honey, cod brandade, Spanish omelet, Iberian ham and chickpea stew. See the example itinerary for details on the different bars you may visit.
Your tapas tour finishes in a centrally located bar so that you’re well-placed to continue your night out independently.

Great tour, fun tapas bars with 3 or 4 dishes to try and drink choices in each one. Nice to do the short walk between bars to digest and refresh.

Noemí was a great guide who told us about the history of the area - the literary quarter and the food. The tapas were great and varied and so were the drinks.
We had a most enjoyable evening. Thankyou

The best experience we had in all our time in Spain, food was incredible and atmosphere was even better. You can tell the tour guide loves their jobs and makes it a priority for everyone to enjoy themselves. Would recommend to anyone coming to Madrid.

We were skeptical at first, how could an experience have such a high rating. However, this was absolutely deserving of such a high score. We had an amazing time, our tour guide Sergio was brilliant, very friendly with lots of interesting facts and stories about the city. The range of food was brilliant, you go to local, historical establishments which gives you a chance to try a range of authentic food that you may not have tasted before. The are options of different drinks at each stop, and we found all of them very enjoyable. 10/10 would recommend to anyone visiting Madrid.

A fantastic wine and tapas tour, with a great small group guided by the awesome Noemi !
We went to 4 authentic Spanish places, each with a different tapas and wine pairing. At the end of the evening, we all had a full meal including dessert.
Noemi was great as a guide, telling us about Madrid local history as we walked from place to place, and also explained the food to us. Highly recommended! 5/5 stars.
