A Fun and Flavorful Journey!
Our 10 Tastings of Madrid tour with Marianissa was an absolute delight! From the moment we met her, her warm personality and deep knowledge of Madrid’s food scene made the experience both fun and engaging. She took us to incredible local spots—some hidden gems we never would have found on our own.
Marianissa not only introduced us to amazing flavors but also shared fascinating stories behind each dish, giving us a real taste of Madrid’s culture and history. Her passion for food and the city was contagious, and she made sure we had a fantastic time from start to finish.
If you’re looking for a fun, delicious, and well-organized food tour, this is it! Thank you, Marianissa, for making our Madrid adventure so memorable! Highly recommend!

Best guide we have ever had
Our family has travelled a fair amount, and used many guides in many cities. Maria is literally the best guide we have ever had. She has guided us on multiple trips to Madrid, and we have sent friends to her as well.
She is very knowledgeable on the history, art, and culture of Spain and especially Madrid.
She is also an attentive guide paying attention to the needs of our various elderly and young family members and making adjustments (bathroom, snack, break…) as needed.
Her recommendations for restaurants, Flamenco, shopping, and other sites to visit have all been excellent.

Ari is the best
We’ve done food tours all over the world, and already before in Madrid, so we’ve got solid reference to say that Ari is one of the best. Well informed, eloquent, and above all a very warm and friendly personality. We’ll be back Ari!

Marianissa Was Amazing!
Marianissa tailored our tour and was very knowledgeable about the food, wine, culture and history of Madrid and all the various neighborhoods. She definitely took us to local places you would not have found on travel sites. Definitely would recommend her to anyone looking for a personal guide.
