What you'll do
Discover the flavour and soul of Madrid through two of its most exciting food markets — true engines of gastronomy — and a traditional tapas bar.
The Madrid Markets Tour advises you not to eat breakfast before this tour to get the most from this foodie experience!
Your passionate guide will show you the best of the Spanish capital's markets for food lovers. The first stop is Mercado de San Miguel, one of Madrid’s most famous and historic food markets. Originally opened in 1916 as a traditional market, today it's one of the city’s most popular gastronomic destinations, attracting food lovers from around the world.
Here, you’ll enjoy a refreshing drink and two authentic tapas dishes. As a specialist in Spanish and Madrid cuisine, your guide will give you the inside scoop on what to try and local specialities to look out for at the second market.
While food at the next two stops isn’t included, your guide will be on hand every step of the way to help you choose the tastiest dishes and specialities from Madrid.
In between the markets, just a short 300m stroll away, you’ll visit a traditional tapas bar brimming with local character. Here, you’ll be able to buy some small plates to sample together from the menu.
Each market is different in history, atmosphere, and style – this tour prides itself on the diversity of food on offer.
There’s no better way to get to know a city than through its food. This tour is a celebration of Madrid's authenticity, tradition, and gastronomy.
