Overview

Discover Madrid one bite at a time on our Tapas Tour, where, over two and a half hours, a local foodie guide will lead you on a gastronomic walk through La Latina and Madrid Centro. Here, your guide will spill the secrets on where the locals really eat, and along the way, you’ll spot historic gems like ancient city ruins, San Miguel Market, and the iconic Plaza Mayor.
