Experience Food tours in the best of
Madrid with Withlocals

"We spent the most amazing evening in Madrid with Íñigo, who shared so much about the city, its history and most importantly…its delicious food! Íñigo was so engaging and passionate about the city he grew up in. It was so interesting to get his perspective about life and culture in Madrid, in addition to its historical significance. He took us to a variety of restaurants and tavernas (don’t miss Taberna Angel Sierra!!) that all had unique, local character…and amazing food and drink. As we dined on delicious food and drink like boquerones in vinegar, tortillas, salmorejo and tartar de jamón Iberia, complemented with Spanish drinks like vermouth, cerbeza and wine, Íñigo educated us on the cultural significance of everything we ate and drank. I can’t recommend Íñigo enough. His passion for Madrid is unrivaled. If you’re ever in Madrid, do yourself a favor and book a tour with him. You won’t regret it!!"

"We had the most fabulous tour with Piero. He is both knowledgeable and passionate about Madrid. He took us to a range of bars and restaurants which were both authentic and outside of the 'tourist trap' places which we like to avoid. We enjoyed food and drink of Madrid which we we would not have discovered with out him and at each place he gave us a cultural & historical context. He has a great fun loving personality and fabulous sense of humour and as part of our tour he included fun unexpected activities. Piero truly loves Madrid, food and wine and this came though in everything that we did with him. Piero communicated well with me before the tour regarding the groups dietary needs and general interests and was thoughtful enough to bring a candle as we were celebrating a birthday. Piero was flexible according to our needs and interests and showed us a really good time. I have done a number of With Locals food & drink tours across Europe and this one with Piero has so far been the best one. If you are looking for a unique experience in Madrid and a guide who not only knows his stuff but also a lot of fun Piero is the man for you!! "

"Had a lovely time with Marianissa who took us around Madrid - learning about its history while being personal and very fun and easy going to hang out it with. Highly recommend you to do the same if you visit Madrid! "

"Drica was fantastic and very knowledgeable during the tour. We enjoyed delicious food and tapas, and she shared the history of La Latina as we walked. She was very kind, and we had a great time! "

"I had an amazing time on this walking tour through Madrid with Maria who was incredibly knowledgeable about the city’s history, architecture, and culture and her passion for her city was evident. What made the experience even more special was how patient and encouraging she was with my Spanish. She took the time to speak with me in Spanish throughout the tour, helping me practice naturally in conversation while also explaining things clearly when I needed help. It felt like both a cultural experience and a language lesson at the same time. I would highly recommend Maria to anyone visiting Madrid. Gracias María! "

"Our afternoon with Inigo was the highlight of our stay in Madrid. The food was amazing, and we tried several options whose flavors we would not have found on our own. Most notably were the tortillas with potatoes and carmelized onions, and the fried squid sandwiches with aioli sauce. We also enjoyed sampling the Iberian pork. But most of all, the information and personalized touches provided by Inigo were what made the experience special. We would definitely recommend sampling the food and touring the neighborhoods with Inigo. "

"Our food tour with Piero was fantastic! From start to finish, one of the best food tours we’ve booked. Piero clearly loves Madrid and loves teaching people about its history, traditions, and food culture. He worked with me to accommodate my need for gluten free food, and still gave my gluten eating friends an amazing experience. I can’t recommend his tour enough. "

"From the moment we met Beatriz it was like meeting an old friend for a night out in the city. Beatriz is a warm, friendly and positive person and as a guide she was perfect for us. We were three English friends, about to do a Spanish language course, arriving in Madrid for the first time and wanted to speak as much Spanish as we could, safe in the knowledge that our guide was fluent in both. Not only was Beatriz able to swap languages she was the most interesting person to spend time with. She took us to a very Spanish bar for our first drink, we were the only non-locals, where we chatted about a wide array of subjects from history, to local customs, her job as a high school teacher and so much more. The second place she took us was a tapas bar within a mercado, where we had a drink and chose the tapas we wanted to try, delicious. Again, probably somewhere we would not have known about or visited on our own and surrounded by locals. The conversations flowed so easily with Beatriz that the time flew by. The restaurant we visited last had a table reservation, such a necessity on a Friday night in Madrid at places popular with the locals. Again, the food we chose was delicious and the advice from Beatriz guided our choices. By the end of the evening it felt like saying goodnight to a friend, thank you Beatriz for a truly memorable night in Madrid in your company, without doubt all three of us highly recommend that you book Beatriz, on any of her tours, without hesitation. Saludos "

"What a lovely way to spend an evening learning about tapas. Marianissa even walked me through a food market and explained the stalls and the restaurant culture on top of the tapas tour. Highly recommended. "

"Inigo was a wonderful guide, will be sending my friends his way when they visit Madrid. Felt like I was getting the “inside scoop” on best places for wine, vermouth, beer, and of course amazing food. He’s very engaging with his stories about the bars and restaurants we visited. Learned a lot! As a food industry veteran, it’s nice to find someone who’s the real deal and showed me some unforgettable food. Iberico Tartare! Gazpacho to die for. Could go on but you get the idea.
