Yummy and Informative!! - Our food tour was the perfect way to start our time in Madrid! Our guide, Rebeca, was very knowledgeable and gave lots of interesting commentary. We had our kids with us (ages 6 and almost 3), and she did a great job of pacing things to keep their interest. Highly recommend this tour for a fun and delicious activity!!

Wonderful tour with great food and lots of local information! - Fun tour of the market with a pintxo and cheese sample then a visit to a local spot for calamari sandwich with potatoes and a drink. Finally some treats (choc covered churro, turrones) for dessert. Jose did a great job running the tour simultaneously in two languages for me (english) and a brazilian guest (portuguese). I appreciated that we got to make choices for the pintxo and the cheese sample!

Not bad, not great - The history and locations were well-described and very interesting. However, I was expecting more information about the food and for the food to be more delicious. Everything we tried was fine, but there was nothing that made the food on this tour stand out. I recommend either making this a gourmet experience or choosing different foods to feature on this tour.

Mid food tour - The guide we had was super sweet and nice! This was a short time frame for this tour, but other than the tastings at the San Miguel market, the others weren't very good or interesting. I suggest that the guide make arrangements ahead of time with the establishments so that the items were ready to go. We stood up in the crowd to try the samples vs. having a table and place to eat like most tours. We spent time at a candy shop trying tiny samples of candy that is available to anyone coming into the shop. I'd probably pass on this one.
