Itinerary

1. Native Spanish Tapas

   Meeting Point is at the statue in the middle of Plaza Isabel II where we will begin wandering through 1700's part of Madrid before stopping at our first tavern, that has been making delicious croquettes since 1860 alongside an amazing traditional Toledo red-wine aged in clay barrel.

2. Puerta del Sol

   After a delicious Madrid-style coquette we will visit Puerta del Sol, Spain's Time Square and work our way towards the older part of Madrid called La Latina.
   

3. La Latina

   Then you´ll head to the wine tavern district of La Latina, stopping at two of Madrid’s top family-run taverns for some of the city’s tastiest wines and tapas traditional such as cold cut meats and cheeses and enjoying some quaint little side streets taking back in time.
   

4. Plaza Isabel II

   Near our initial meeting point, you will enjoy a traditional lunch with an assortment of tapas such as paella, tortilla, calamari, patatas bravas, and morcilla. This district’s specialty tapas are called pinchos, or tostas, tapas ingredients piled high on a slice of crunchy bread. 

   All these amazing tapas and wine alongside a fun and dynamic explanation of Madrid's past and present history. 

   A central part of the Mediterranean diet, wine dates back more than 8,000 years, though Spanish wine has just recently begun receiving the international recognition it deserves. Spain’s weather provides ideal growing conditions for top quality grapes. In fact, many fine French and Italian wine producers import Spanish grapes, given their high quality. Indulge in some of the most highly acclaimed Spanish Rioja, Ribera del Duero, and white Rías Baixas wines before returning to your departure point.
