Our guide Arantxa was terrific. She kept up a constant flow of conversation through the tour. She was quite funny and engaging and did a wonderful job telling us about the history, the food, and Spanish culture. It was a really enjoyable evening!

My tour guide Sam was amazing! We walked around to different spots for local drinks and food that were absolutely delicious. Alongside the food/drinks we got to see some historic sites and were provided with the history behind them. 100% recommend this tour to anyone coming to the area, especially if you’re looking for authentic food!

This is the third time I’ve booked this. We have been blessed with great guides, but this time we met Sam. She took service and professionalism to the next level. You should ask to have Sam be your guide and you’ll not only hear the details of the food and drinks, but also the history of Madrid. Well done Sam!

Know before you book
Is this a private tour?
Yes — this is a fully private tour your own guide and maximum 8 of your friends and family. The best of Barcelona’s food culture isn’t always easy to find. With a private guide, you get the flavors, the stories, and the places that locals love.
How much food is included?
15+ tastings at 8 spots—more than enough for a full meal. Come hungry! Water will be served at some spots, but we recommend bringing a water bottle if you get thirsty.
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.
Why choose a private tapas tour in Madrid?
Because Madrid's best food experiences aren't found by chance. With a private guide, you’ll discover the real flavors and places most visitors miss.
What makes this different from other Madrid tapas tours?
This tour goes beyond just eating—it’s about discovering Madrid’s food culture, history, and traditions, all led by someone who knows the city inside and out.
What is the cancellation policy for private food tours?
Private food tours may be cancelled and refunded up to 7 days before the tour date. Thank you for understanding.
Can I customize the route or food stops on a private tour?
Our routes and tastings are thoughtfully planned in advance. Each stop has been chosen for its craft, character, and place in the neighborhood’s daily life. Keeping the route intact allows the experience to unfold smoothly without rushing or waiting. That way you can simply arrive and enjoy a table, seat, or bite waiting just for you. While the route itself stays the same, the rhythm is yours. Your guide adjusts the pace to suit your group.
