Such an amazing experience! It was a combination of great food, great company, and interesting information. Carolyn was really fantastic. She's full of knowledge on both food and the city of Madrid. Her English is terrific and she's very easy to understand, making the tour all that more enjoyable.
We tried a variety of Madrid food staples and even got to skip a huge line at a very popular spot. We had plenty of food, all of it delicious, and the walk was easy and delightful. It felt like a night out with friends popping into different establishments. We highly recommend this tour. It's a really fantastic way to get a feel for the city's food scene and a much more entertaining way to do dinner!

Maria was very knowledgeable and kept us engaged the entire time. She made the 4-hours not seem that long. The Prada and the Palace are worth the visit.
