What to expect

Expect a walking tour linking three traditional bars across central Madrid. At each venue you'll settle in, order a drink (cider, then wine/beer/sangria, then your choice again), and share plates of classic Spanish bites with the group. The guide speaks between stops, pointing out neighbourhoods and explaining why certain dishes matter to Madrid's food culture. The pace is leisurely—this isn't rushed bar-hopping. By the third bar, you'll sit down for a proper shared dinner rather than standing with small plates. Alcohol flows throughout, so eat steadily and pace yourself.
