Ten years ago on out first trip to Madrid we had a wonderful tapas tour with Andres. When we planned this recent trip with another couple we were pleasantly surprised to see that Andres was still running this tour. Over the years he has kept the same personal attention and educational but entertaining style, while at the same time finding new unique and high quality establishments in Old Madrid. We had a fabulous time and would recommend this to anyone on their first…or their tenth …trip to Madrid!In our 10+ days in Madrid this trip, the tapas tour was our favorite experience!!! We have been to Madrid before, but never did anything so fun and informative!! We highly recommend!
