Spend about three and a half hours walking from Ópera through Madrid’s evening food scene with a guide such as James or Charlie. Visit four bars and restaurants, share 12 to 20 possible tapas, enjoy three tastings and one drink at the first stop, then pay only for what you order.

“This was one of our best experiences in Madrid. The night walking tour introduced us to places we would have never gone on our own. Each stop we tried different wines and more tapas. We also learned how to find great restaurant locations off the main road. We would definatley do this tour again when we get back to Madrid. So much fun!”
