Tour guide Monse was excellent! She was knowledgeable, energetic, and led us to delicious food venders in Madrid. She made personal recommendations on eating near our hotel, which were wonderful. We will go on more Devour tours in the future. Thank you, Monse!!!

We had a fantastic time with Montse even though it was chilly and rainy! She was so much fun and full of knowledge about Madrid. The food stops were exactly what we were hoping for - small, locally owned places, often times family run. The food was delicious! We highly recommend!

David was the perfect host. Knew lots about the cuisine history and Madrid. Giving great advice on how ”locals” live and where to find great authentic food. <br />Each stop was fantastic and had great food to sample. David’s knowledge of the food and the regions it originated in made it a real cultural experience. <br />I would highly recommend this tour !!

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!
