What you can expect

Begin your tour in central Madrid, where your local guide will welcome you and introduce you to the art of tapeo.

Your first stop will be a historic tavern known for its garlic shrimp. Learn about the origins of this classic dish while enjoying two tapas paired with a drink in a traditional setting full of character.

Next, continue to a long-standing local restaurant where tradition and quality ingredients take centre stage. Taste two more tapas as your guide explains the evolution of Madrid’s gastronomy and the role these establishments play in everyday life.

The experience then takes you towards Plaza Mayor, one of the city’s most iconic landmarks. Here, you’ll try the famous calamari sandwich, a true symbol of Madrid, while discovering how this dish became so popular in a city without a coastline.

Conclude your experience in a classic tapas bar, where you’ll enjoy a local speciality of grilled mushrooms, prepared the same way for decades. A perfect ending to understand how simplicity, quality ingredients, and tradition define local cuisine.

Throughout the tour, you’ll walk through some of the most emblematic areas of Madrid’s historic centre, combining food, history, and culture in a complete experience.
