Dinner includes at least eleven tapas and five drinks; dietary adaptations require advance notice. 5 from 45 reviews at €119 per person for 3h 30m. In our comparison: #14 of 36 in Wine Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below). ## Overview Enjoy a perfectly curated tapas evening in Madrid’s trendiest neighborhood, Malasaña! Visit locally owned tapas bars, meet their owners and taste the blend of modern and traditional cuisine that makes this area so unique. Taste iconic dishes like cured Iberian ham, seasonal tomato salad and ugly croquetas (the best kind!). You'll also dig into Madrid's lesser-known specialties like torreznos (pork belly), tostas (toasted sourdough topped with all the good stuff) and incredible wines from artesanal producers. This movable feast will be the most delicious night of your trip! Along the way you'll meet the passionate people who are keeping Madrid's food traditions alive. Get to know José, the second-generation ham man, and Marianne, the queen of artichokes. You'll become part of the neighborhood for the evening!
