Thank you for this wonderful review! We are so happy to read the great experience you had during our Local neighborhoods & Gourmet Tapas experience! Andrea is a great guide: professional, full of local knowledge and with a great sense of humor! She knows how to transmit information without being boring. The itinerary was designed to cover the historical icons of Madrid and local neighborhoods, stopping in traditional places such as San Gines but also, supporting family businesses as the ones we stop by in the Markets. We are glad to read how much you enjoyed! Thank you for recommending us to everyone travelling to Madrid!

We totally enjoyed tour and insights into Madrid. Andrea was excellent and very genuine. We loved the overview of Madrid, the plazas we visited, the markets, the oils, the wines, the simple food and particularly the off-the street hidden gems.
