This is a wonderful tour to take in the sights of Madrid as well as learning about the history of the food and drink, which was also all delicious. I really liked the size of the tour group, everyone was very friendly, and our guide, Carolyn, was so lovely and informative, and really made the tour special.
Shout out to the calamari sandwich, something which I would never usually eat, but would happily have had a second!
I will definitely be looking at other Devour tours going forward.

Our guide Isabel was very knowledgeable about Madrid, it's history and of course all the food. Her English was fantastic and she had tons of patience with guests who asked questions that had already been answered.
