Madrid
is the capital of Spain, the largest and one of the most interesting
cities. EXPERIENCE A TAPAS AND WINE TOUR IN MADRID. As featured in Wall Street Journal. The tour includes: visit to four tapas bars where you would have some tapas and wine or other drink. Enough for dinner or lunch. Tour of the area where you will learn about some of Madrid’s most characteristic places. No extra charges, everything included. Duration: Approximately 2h 30 min. SPECIAL OFFER 10 euros discount OTHER DATES AVAILABLE: April 16th, May 2nd, May 8th, May 10th, from 70 euros per person There are two “Madrids”: the one you can’t help but see, and the one you need a local person to show you. We’d like to invite you to enjoy the experience of “ir de tapas”, as madrileños do. You will discover hidden spots, even in the very heart of Madrid, each of which has something special to offer, be it a typical dish, a specific type of wine or its atmosphere. Get into the swing of things: go to a bar, enjoy your wine and your free tapa, order something extra to eat if it catches your fancy and, once you’ve finished, move on to the next venue. It´s as simple as that! Be ready to stand in bars, drinking slowly but surely and sampling a variety of tapas and wines which, although originally from different Spanish regions, have found their place in the melting pot that is We’ll start in one of Madrid’s most emblematic venues, drinking sherry, the world-famous “generous” wine from Andalusia, and we will learn how this wine is closely related to the origin of the word tapas to refer to small portions of food… some of which we will, of course, enjoy. The tradition of having food to go with your wine (and not the other way around) is, however, much older. We’ll acquaint ourselves with the history of this custom in an old style Castilian tavern, surrounded by huge blackboards showing the names of dozens of wines sold by the glass and the tapas available.
We won’t waste any time: onwards to the next bar! This one is all about bulls and matadors: enjoy the traditional Feria fare surrounded by bullfighting paraphernalia. And finally, we’ll round up the evening in style, with Serrano ham and wine at the last bar that we’ll visit, which can only be defined as a typical “Madrid tavern”. Hidden, dark, cozy, warm, roguish, immortal; like all those places that feature in novels, but rarely in the tourist guides. Someone said that to be a madrileño you just need to spend the night in Madrid and enjoy the streets more than your home. We offer you the freedom of the city. And its drinks. And its dishes. The tour includes:
Duration: The tour takes approximately 2h 30 min. Recommended from 13.00-15.30h or 20.00 – 22.30 h.

Madrid. By the end of the evening you will have discovered the key to wine and gastronomy (some of it is for the fearless only!) and heard many anecdotes of 17th century Madrid, along whose streets we will stroll.
The concept behind the next place we will visit is as old as it is unique nowadays: the store that conceals a bar, or the bar tucked away at the back of a shop. If you like what you eat or drink in the bar, you can purchase it from the shop. Likewise, if you are intrigued by what you see in the shop, you can sample it in the bar.|
