Guidekin's take

A two hour street food walk that starts inside the San Miguel market and continues through the centre: a Madrid-style sandwich, pintxo, cheese or olives, a churro and wine along the way at €52 per person.

Compact and central, built for first evenings.

In our comparison: #43 of 49 in Food & Tapas Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
