Flo was an amazing guide. She's smart, funny, and loves food and leading tours. We went on the tour right after arriving in Madrid on an overnight flight from the US where I got no sleep, and Flo's tour kept me awake and engaged. Every bite was delicious, there was plenty of food to go around, and we highly recommend this tour with Flo.

This was my first day in Madrid, and David’s tour was the perfect introduction to the city. We made 9 delicious stops, starting with a stroll through Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayor, and spending most of our time exploring the vibrant Lavapiés neighborhood. David was friendly, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable about Madrid’s history and food culture. He also shared some great local recommendations for the rest of my stay. I found the experience both informative and, a great way to kick off my trip. Highly recommend!
Our tour guide Aranxa (sorry I misspelled name) she was a lot of fun so knowledgeable and a passionate Spaniard.
Places we visited and the food we was fantastic. A great experience very satisfied.
