We learned a lot about Spanish food origins and tradition. Our guide, Mitzi, was very friendly and knowledgeable. She did a good job of including everyone and answering questions.

Arantxa was a wonderful guide and we learned so much about food in Madrid and Spain from her. The group was small so we got to ask lots of questions, and everyone was very friendly. The atmosphere felt very local. We got so much food, I could barely eat it all, and lots of restaurants, bars, and markets to go check out later. Visiting the local market was a highlight - the olive tasting was incredible. Given the length of the tour (over three hours) and the amount of food, the fee seems reasonable. The tour is best for adults, singles, couples or small groups.

Loved it! We got to pop around the city seeing various areas while eating & chatting our way through. Our guide David B. was great & went over & above by giving us many additional recommendations for Madrid plus the other cities we were visiting on our trip.

We had the most wonderful Spanish Cusine tour with Arantxa! Learned so much, went to a great variety of local spots tasting some of the best Madrid has to offer all the while learning about the rich history and some really fun stories. Our group was great, total of 7 people. My favorite stop was to a local market where Arantxa led us to all the different stalls advising of great places to get a bite to eat or buy gifts for family & friends back home. Arantxa is a wealth of knowledge and so very kind, personable and fun. Cannot wait to come back and join in again!!! Got so much more than our moneys worth!

My first thought experience with devour tours was back in Rome. Great experience, so when in Spain of course wasnt expecting anything less especially since they started in Madrid. Our group was lucky to have two guides Elenor and Montse. These two ladies knew their stuff!! And the food amazing met and exceeded my expectations. You will never go wrong with Devour!
