⭐️The Original Madrid Tapas Crawl⭐️
I offer you a mostly indoors real local tapas crawling journey, based on traditional dishes. Over 2.5 hours we’ll be visiting 4 spots. A market cuisine restaurant, a well-kwown ice-cold beer bar for locals, a new slow food tavern, and a one-century old bodega in a high quality and non-touristy tapas area, which madrileños love. You'll be able to see people from Madrid going out for real tapas. And you'll feel like one of us.
All the included spots are family-owned bussines, and I'm lucky to know the owners (Manuel, Jesús, José and Paco) since many years ago. I grew up in this fantastic district called Chamberí and I have been trying their many bars and dishes thoughout my life, so I know them... in detail!
This is also a great experience for teams, groups and team-building!!!!
There's a lot of food on our tour (10-12 tapas servings), we recommend you to make a light lunch!

History & Food in old town Madrid Tour - Since 2018 -
Come with me on a private tour with a nice mix of history, architecture, fun anecdotes, a few jokes and really, really, tasty food (Not the mainstream, cliché, touristy food!).
We'll start at the Plaza Mayor and then make our way through the old village, stopping at a local market to enjoy some entrees and drinks. Then continue our historical journey through the most ancient and interesting parts of the old town, to finally end before the majestic Royal Palace.
After putting aside the history we’ll finish the tour at a really cosy, gourmet restaurant where you'll get to taste different, mouth-watering, chef made tapas, local drinks and a really special and traditional liquor quite involved with the history of the city. Of course, aside from the food goodies, we will get an opportunity to chill, know each other better and share some laughs.
Come and see Madrid through my eyes, I want to make you feel as if you're walking through the city with a bunch of friends but one of them happens to know a lot about it and is more than willing to share the knowledge with you!
If you're easygoing, like history and kind of a foodie, this is your place! But don’t let me convince you all by myself, go ahead and take a look at some of the reviews and check out what people have to say about this experience!

We will meet in Plaza Isabel II, under the statue. This is a centrally located spot, where the Opera metro station stop is.
We will start with a Spanish breakfast to have a bit of energy buzz! What better way than a special treat of traditional chocolate & churros?

Welcome to Madrid Walking Tour
Welcome to Madrid! One of Europe's most exciting yet misunderstood cities. What it lacks in famous tourist attractions, it more than makes up for in wild history, beautiful views and exciting local stories. If you take a couple of hours to get to know Madrid, it can easily become one of your favourite cities.
This English language tour starts close to the glorious Plaza Mayor and ends at the Royal Palace, we'll walk through the charming streets of the old town to see the sights and discover the secrets of a city that stands in the middle of nowhere, miles from its neighbours.
We'll travel through the history that shaped the city, explore the food and drink traditions, and solve some local mysteries. Why did people avoid plaza mayor for decades? Why are a group of women locked inside a city centre building? Was the most defining 'accident' of Madrid's story actually a well planned crime?
Join me to spend a laughter filled couple of hours falling in love with Madrid and getting recommendations from your new local friend!
P.S I strongly recommend taking this tour early in your trip as there are lots of things you'll discover you want to do while you're here :)
Discovering Medieval Madrid
We will visit some places that even the locals don't know. The origins of the capital city go back to the Middle Ages, when it was a small military city. Several old places remains, like the medieval muslim wall in the gardens of Emir Mohamed I, narrow streets with curious names of Arab influence or Jewish origins, squares where kings and princesses watched medieval tournaments at Plaza del Alamillo.
We will see the Jewish quarter and the towers of old mosques, now transformed into churches, such as Pedro el Viejo or the Capilla del Obispo. We'll even see a secret garden that was the orchard of a convent. Or the Tower and Palace of Los Lujanes, a very important family in the old times of Madrid. Are places where its walls speaks about the Madrid of the three cultures and the three religions.
We will finish the route very close to the Plaza Mayor, where we can talk quietly and you can ask me any questions you have about the city or the information you need.
Contact me for a different time schedule request or private groups. This experience is perfect for business groups that want to find something different. It is also perfect for groups of friends.
In the current situation of the COVID-19, the most important thing is your safety, so I will be very responsible and make the tour totally safe. Remember that you must wear the mask.
