We tried some delicious local foods and had a great time with Naiara. Would recommend to any visitor to Madrid
We had a great time with Naiara. She was knowledgeable about the history of Madrid and passionate about Spanish food. She took us to several authentic spots and the food was excellent. I would recommend this tour to anyone who is visiting Madrid.
Tour/guide never met me at meeting place. I waited 25 minutes and they did not show. I would like a refund of the entire tour cost.
Sorry to hear that, what date did you book I have no record of you. this tour was canceled, sorry you didn't get the notice. I wondering why you didn't call or write to us while you were waiting? You have a full refund on the way. So sorry for the mistake, take care and all the best, Adrian
Great tour full of unique and helpful insights into Madrid as well aa some great food and drink. Our guide, Naiara was outstanding - simply a pleasure to spend time with. Must do if you are a first time visitor to Madrid, or simply want to learn more about this great city.
Naiara was an amazing guide with great energy. She was very knowledgeable about the history of the city and the local food. The places she took us offered local delicacies and drinks. We would not have been able to experience such a wide range of tapas and drink if not her as tourists. Definitely recommending this tour. She even sent us a list of recommended places to go afterward.
This tour was so special. NAIARA took us to several hidden gems of Madrid that we would not have seen on our own. We tasted several tapas in several locations. She had a great knowledge of the city history as well. She was so pleasant and you could tell loved what she did. I think this is a great way to really immerse yourself in Madrid’s culture! Highly recommend. Beth and Kevin Skinner, Nov 23

Naiara was wonderful. She was fun, enhusiastic, and her stories were interesting. I liked her pictues too.
Our tour guide Naiara, is a highly informative, delightful young lady who is an excellent asset for the tour company. She provided us with an excellent food and history tour. Being the only couple on the tour meant we could move easily from place to place to enjoy delicious food in a variety of venues whilst being introduced to the history and buildings of Madrid. Highly recommend!
Naiara was fantastic. We were given interesting history along our tour. The food provided was delicious and ample. We were shown a great tip for eating mushrooms and will try at home. We were never rushed and encouraged to ask as many questions as we wanted to and could take as many photos as we liked. Couldnt recommend. More highly. Many thanks Naiara for a great tour
