The best way to discover Madrid: a walk through Latina and delicious tapas - We had such a wonderful experience that we will definitely repeat the next time we come to Madrid. We discovered one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in Madrid with Maia, a very nice and attentive guide.... Delicious tapas, amazing local restaurants, walks through the corners of "La Latina" while we learned a bit of history and curiosities of the city. We had a great time!

Great experience! - I thoroughly enjoyed the tour! Being my first time in Madrid, it was nice to get some history and see some castizo spots. Mia was a fantastic guide with her bubbly energy and knowledge of the the area. She clearly wants to get to know and enjoys meeting people. I was so full from the high quality tapas only half way through, but of course had to keep trying everything that was put in front of me.

The tour to be! - This tour saved my life! My family from Australia came to Madrid and I trusted Maia for this city tour, coz I was a bit busy for taking care of them in the mornings. My family was delighted with this tour! They visited very traditional places (where I personally would have taken them) and had GREAT times. The ate Jamón, bacalao, nice wines and cider… honestly, really recommended! Thanks, Maia!!! You’re a STAR

A must to do when in Madrid - This was our very first food tour and the only thing I had on my trip to do was a walking food tour. We really had lot of fun and our Guide Maia was so knowledgeable and explained all the historic details and took us through some wonderful places which I am sure we would never visit. She gave us the background of each place we visited and also in depth details of the food that we were tasting. She was very friendly and we had so many questions which she explained to us patiently. We also wanted get some spices and she kept a look out for where we can get them and made sure we got those spices before the stores closed.
