Great tour
We enjoyed our tour with Julian. He was a great guide and very knowledgeable. He took us to several interesting food places where we were able to try multiple traditional Spanish foods. We learned a ton about the food and city.

Private Tour of Cental Madrid
Julian is very friendly and knows a lot about the history of Spain and Madrid. Although 5 hours seems like a lot, it flew by with so much to see. He managed to make good use of the time including a nice tour of the Cathedral and the Crypts and the few, remaining ancient ruins. These were not included as part of the tour that I joined the next day.

Ari is the best, we loved our 10 tastings!
Our first full day in Madrid! Ari was such an amazing host. We have traveled through Europe and this was our first visit to Madrid. She was kind, easy to follow, and so personable - we highly recommend her for any of her tours! She loves her home town of Madrid and knows her local dining and shops! Thank you, Ariadna! You made our first day so memorable!
