Borja was a lovely guide - very charming and knowledgeable about both food and Madrid. The food was delicious and there was plenty even though I don’t eat seafood (but my child says the seafood was delicious). The best part was hanging out and learning / eating with the rest of the group.
The food and drinks provided were excellent and represented a variety iof Spanish fare. The bars/restaurants were very difference in decor and comfortable. The best part was ojur guide MATEO. He was informed and interested in Spanish history--good English and a very pleasant person. I highly recommend this tour.
