Mitzi was amazing! She was helpful, knowledgeable, made it feel so personal by remembering specific interests of those in the group. This is our second Devour tour and both have been amazing. It is like a group of new friends hanging out as you walk in smaller groups which feels so nice.

Thisnis my second Devour Tour. This one has been just as amazing as the first. A beautiful blend of walking tour and eating. Everything was small local shops. As a non Spanish speaking American this was so helpful in learning the ropes and feeling comfortable with how to find, order, and enjoy food in the Spanish culture. Thank you Mitzi youre amazing!

Highly recommend! Perfect way to start a trip in Madrid. Every stop was a winner. If you’re lucky, you’ll get Mitzi as your guide. She made the tour excellent.

Know Before You Go

Is this a walking food tour?

Yes, we stroll through two central neighborhoods at a relaxed pace (about 2 km total), with plenty of food breaks and seating.

How much food is included?

Come hungry! This tour easily replaces a full meal.

Do morning and evening tours differ?

Morning tours start with churros and hot chocolate; evening tours begin with tapas and beer. Everything else is the same.

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?

We can offer vegetarian alternatives, gluten-free, dairy-free, and non-alcoholic drinks. However, celiac disease and severe allergies are not easily accommodated due to the risk of cross-contamination.

Do we visit a real market?

Yes—an authentic neighborhood market where you’ll taste local staples and meet vendors we’ve worked with for years.

What neighborhoods do we explore?

You’ll visit Madrid’s Literary Quarter (Barrio de las Letras) and the historic center—both rich with culture, charm, and local flavor.

What makes this Madrid food tour different?

This is the original. Created in 2012, it’s built on real relationships—not just restaurant partnerships. You’ll eat with locals, at places we’ve trusted for generations—and walk away with a deeper connection to Madrid.
