About the operator
- Jan S00The best food tour in Madrid!I wish I could give this tour more than 5 stars! Carmen was terrific!! She took us to amazing places to eat to experience wonderful Spanish specialties, and while doing so, told us about the history, architecture, and culture of Madrid. It was a fantastic way to get to know our way around Madrid, while at the same time, learning about the city and eating delicious food! Carmen answered all of our questions, and before the end of the night, we felt like we had a made a good friend. She was so fun and easy to be with. Truly an unforgettable time. Thanks so much Carmen! You’re the best!
- Z9959ZCcolleenc00Great Food Tour in Madrid!Carmen was an amazing guide on this food tour through Old Madrid. Her passion for the traditional tapas of Madrid made the evening fun and informative. She took us to her favorite places and we loved each one. She also shared lots of tips for restaurants to try during the rest of our stay. We took the tour on our first night in Madrid and it was a great way to get familiar with Puerto Del Sol and the Plaza Mayor. I highly recommend Carmen and her food tours!
- n_connor_dunn00Great, delicious tour!Carmen did a fantastic job! She shares all the tapas places that she grew up going to and has a personal relationship with all the shop owners. Her insight into the city would be hard to beat and the food was amazing! Highly recommend for anyone visiting Madrid!
- us_girl_in_germany00Tapas tour with CarmenWe met Carmen and knew immediately we were in for a treat. We went to three different tapas restaurants. Carmen is very knowledgeable about Madrid and we enjoyed our time with her very much. She adapted to our likes and dislikes when ordering food and gave us the opportunity to try some wonderful bites. Would definitely recommend!
- Z817ZEandreaf00ExcellentCarmen was the best tour guide. She taught us about the history of Madrid, food and drinks. We loved to chat about where the food came from, the modern culture and trends and we saw so much of the city center!
- T1472IGrobertl00Excellent food tourOur guide Carmen was great. She was very patient for a couple who didn’t arrive on time. The restaurants and food choices were great. She shared much information about both and showed us on her map about the origins of the food and its location. Her English was superb. I would want her for my guide wherever I go. 10 stars if I could give them. I highly recommend her and this tour

- Richie S00Fantastic experienceWe had an amazing time on this food tour. We had an excellent tour guide, Carmen, who told us her story and all the ins and outs of Madrid. We tried some of the best shrimp/prawns we have ever had. My wife and I typically don’t eat mushrooms however had the best mushrooms at the mushroom champion restaurant. All was finished off with some delicious churros dipped in chocolate. Carmen was able to fill us in on all sorts of other great authentic places to check out as well. Would recommend this tour.

- Hoffman400Authentic and yummy!If you want to visit real Madrid tapas bars, then go with Carmen. She was a delight and showed us all authentic local and delicious places to eat and talk with friends. We learned a lot about Spain's history because Carmen is a font of information and we ended with the most fantastic tasting dessert - churros and hot chocolate.

- kayj78500Great food, great company...and great chocolate 🍫What a great night! Carmen is an excellent guide, so knowledgeable, sharing so much interesting information of Madrid. She is really friendly and funny. All the places she took us to were true authentic Spanish eateries and the food was divine, as well as the wine. There were just six of us in rhe group which was an ideal number, we were with a couple from Florida who were great company. OMG...the dessert finale was delicious!! Thoroughly recommend this tour, this is Carmen's own company and she deserves all the support!!

This was an excellent way to find really great tapas bars which are frequented by locals as well as tourists, always a good sign. It was also a good way to see and find out about some of the oldest part of Madrid. Carmen, the host is very friendly, cheerful and helpful. I went with my wife and we were with a family from the Netherlands so it is a tour which caters for all ages. We did this tour at the start of our holiday in Madrid deliberately to discover good places to eat and we certainly did that. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city.

Had a great afternoon with Carmen learning some history about Madrid and Spain. She is very passionate about her country. We tried varied tapas that took some of us out of our comfort zone! Very enjoyable and fun!

Set aside some time for a very special evening with delicious food, drinks and laughs! Carmen is a wealth of knowledge and so helpful. We actually went back to one of the places when the tour ended for more drinks! Try a very, very refreshing vermut drink to quench the thirst!

Carmen was excellent every step of the way. This is the tour you want. My experience:
Before the tour: Carmen was responsive and easy going when I explained my flight was delayed and I might be late (luckily I wasn’t).
Arriving: It was raining and she found me with a smile - and that’s when I realized I was the only one on her afternoon tour! I felt like she was just as excited for a solo tour in the rain as she would have been for 10 people with better weather. She didn’t skip a beat.
The tour: incredible. She weaves the history of Madrid chronologically so each stop built off the previous one, so I really felt like I was learning as we walked. And the food was not only delicious AND plentiful - but each food stop had a history lesson as well: both about the food itself and the location.
After the tour: I was so full. I am a big guy and it was enough food for me. I felt informed. Carmen pointed me toward the palace which was a short walk away, and she sent recommendations to me for the rest of my trip. Couldn’t have asked for a better first activity in Madrid.

Carmen is a wonderful guide. Picked out a range of tapas and wine/beer. I enjoyed the variety of places and foods I experienced and would highly recommend. I also had the chance to pick her brain about the rest of Spain (as I’m travelling around) and she knows many of the things to do and see around the country. 5 stars!

My son and I had such a great afternoon with our tour guide, Carmen. She was very informative and friendly and we learned so much about Madrid. We never would have ordered the types of foods we tried if on our own, and they were all very good! I highly recommend this tour.

Carmen was wonderful! I had an afternoon to kill and I ended up booking this tour the night before and was so glad it was available last minute. Turns out, I was the only one on the tour so it was like a private tour and it made it even more memorable. One of the places we went to, I liked so much I went back! Carmen was a great tour guide and it’s a great deal! Don’t hesitate to book this one!
