ABOUT THE Madrid Evening Tapas Experience
Embark on a delicious journey through Madrid’s vibrant food scene on our tapas tour! Over 2.5 hours, we’ll guide you to three iconic historical taverns and one lively street stop, where you’ll sample some of Spain’s most beloved dishes. From deep-fried cod at Revuelta to garlicky shrimp at El Abuelo, and Spanish omelette with torrija at La Casa de las Torrijas, your taste buds are in for a treat.
This experience is more than just a meal—it’s a celebration of Madrid’s culinary heritage. As we wander through the city’s bustling streets, we’ll stop at a local shop to compare the flavors of different types of jamón, unraveling the secrets behind this prized delicacy. Whether you’re vegetarian, pescatarian, or a fan of everything, we ensure every guest feels catered to, with drinks included at each stop (wine, beer, soda, or water).
Led by an expert local guide, our intimate tour feels like exploring the city with a foodie friend. With plenty of laughter, stories, and unforgettable bites, we promise you’ll leave with a full belly and fond memories of Madrid’s delicious traditions.

Tapas Tour
Let me take a few minutes to brag about Andy, our awesome tour guide. Andy was very welcoming and made everyone feel a part of the group. At each stop on the tapas tour we learned the history of the dishes/drinks we were trying and got to chat with Andy about things to do in the city. He handled any issues (dietary restrictions/concerns) with ease and had a great attitude. He also gave our group great recommendations for things to do after the tour and a group of us stayed together afterwards for a good time. The food was great and the options were plentiful for the price paid. No complaints here!

We loved the tapas tour with Andy last night! It was such good value for money with drinks and food at 3 venues for 20 euros. We left happy with full bellies. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Sandemans Madrid Tapas tour
We did the Tapas tour with Andy. Great value at 20euro for around 3 hours including tapasand drinks. We tried a variety of food and drinks at some interesting places, enough to fill us up as a dinner after a long day. Andy was young, energetic and enthusiastic, describing history and culture and his own recommendations and knowledge. He was popular with the vendors too. He gave us great information plus a enough time to enjoy the tapas and drinks and mingle with the others in the tour. We will certainly be returning to some of the places again. We had a great night, and would definitely recommend this tapas tour.

Enjoyable and low cost Tapas Tour
As a solo traveler, I thought that a tapas tour would be a great alternative to dining alone. I found quite a few tapas tours in Madrid, all at a much higher price than this one offered by Sandemans. For me, it was just the right amount of food and drink, and our guide, Andrés was fun and informative.
