WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Plaza de Santa Ana
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. ITINERARY -------------------- Bar 1: Head inside an atmospheric Castilian sherry bar, and learn all about fortified wines, from crisp and dry finos to old olorosos. Admire the chalk boards scrawled with daily tapas specials and soak up the atmosphere inside this delightfully old-fashioned bar. Bar 2: Visit a wine bar that doubles up as a store – tucked away behind liquor bottles! If you like what you eat or drink here, then purchase it from the shop to take home. Bar 3: A warm and bustling tavern welcomes you with their open kitchen were you can see how the dishes are prepared Bar 4: Round off your evening in style at a dark and bohemian Madrid tavern, which is still in business after 100 years, you will enjoying a full-bodied glass of wine. Please note that the above itinerary is an example only and may be subject to change.

Anna was an amazing and charming tour guide. Three stops and 3 different type of tapas at each location. I’d classify the restaurants as local and difficult to find as a tourist. 5-10 minute stroll to each stop. We had a marvellous time with everyone.

Our guide, Leticia, was enthusiastic, knowledgable and friendly. We went to 4 spots in about 2 1/2-3 hours. There was considerable variety in the ambiance, food, and wine among the spots. We would highly recommend this tour!

This is a wonderful tour of four local tapas bars. Each one was over 100 years old and the food was fantastic. There was a wide variety throughout the evening paired with delicious wines, vermouth, and beer. Neomi was very informative and took good care of our group.

It was wonderful to learn about wine and food. We had opportunities to walk around the city and experience many different tastes. More importantly, our guide shared some of her life with us so we got to peak into the normal routines of Spanish culture
