Highlights

Begin your tour in Madrid’s picturesque Plaza Isabel II, where you´ll head to Puerta del Sol to sample traditional Spanish wine alongside delicious Madrid-style croquetas at an establishment operating since 1860. Then you´ll head to the wine tavern district of La Latina, stopping at two of Madrid’s top family-run taverns for some of the city’s tastiest wines and tapas traditional such as cold cut meats and cheeses. You will also savor a delicious plate of “huevos estrallados”, a mix of fried potatoes, Iberian ham, and fried eggs, a local favorite. This district’s specialty tapas are called pinchos, or tostas, tapas ingredients piled high on a slice of crunchy bread. Choose your favorite from the novelty tapas on display at the bar.

All these amazing tapas and wine alongside a fun and dynamic explanation of Madrid’s past and present history.

A central part of the Mediterranean diet, wine dates back more than 8,000 years, though Spanish wine has just recently begun receiving the international recognition it deserves. Spain’s weather provides ideal growing conditions for top quality grapes. In fact, many fine French and Italian wine producers import Spanish grapes, given their high quality. Indulge in some of the most highly acclaimed Spanish Rioja, Ribera del Duero, and white Rías Baixas wines before returning to your departure point.

Best Walking Tour! - This was such a great walking tour. I loved that our tour guide was a native of Madrid. It's always nice to get someone from the city where you're doing a tour because the tour guide comes with so much knowledge and passion for the town, and that is precisely what we got during the tour. Besides getting a wealth of information on the history of Madrid, we also were able to eat amazing local tapas and drink great wine. By the end of our experience, it felt like our guide was one of our friends. This is a must-do when in Madrid. Do not hesitate to book your tour with Native Spanish Tapas

Not your ordinary food tour! - Daniel, our guide, was friendly, personable, and extremely knowledgeable about the history and people of Madrid. The tour was nicely paced as we stopped to see the historic sites of Old Madrid and local traditional tapas eateries. We finished our tour with an amazing full course meal. We have done many local food tours but this was one of our best ever. Intermixing history and food was invaluable for us in order to have an appreciation for the Spanish and Madrid culture. Muchas Garcias Daniel!!

Native Spanish Tapas - The tour had just the right mix of history and tasting. First there are a few small stops where you can taste specialties, and at the end there is a communal dinner. The guide was super friendly! I can recommend the tour to everyone!

Great experience, very accommodating and professional - We had an amazing tour with Pablo. He accommodated some challenging dietary restrictions to make sure everyone had an amazing tour. Throughout the tour he provided a mix of local history and the history of food throughout Madrid and the region. All of the businesses we visited were well prepared and welcomed happily welcomed us with a variety of tastes and drinks. We would definitely recommend Pablo and this tour to anyone traveling either as a couple or with family (to include younger children).
