The Prado has innumerable gems which are best appreciated through the lens of the extremely interesting but convoluted history of Spain. Marta was the perfect guide, refreshingly buoyant and infinitely knowledgeable about the art and history. You'll start with Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights and move on to the wonderful collection of Velazquez and eventually end with great insights into Goya's profound contributions. A private guide may be pricey for one or two, but you avoid the lines and dig effortlessly through the crowds. Definitely worth it and highly rated.

This tour has a twist: it is a night tour, which means you´ll get to know the true life of "madrileños", since "going out" culture here makes up a big part of their daily routine. Madrid´s streets are often busier late at night then during a day, and bars and taverns stay top socializing scenes, where you can easily strike a casual conversation with a stranger. You will be stopping at four to five different places, you will taste and visit a variety of places from old to new, you will get to experience the know-how of traditional eateries, modern gastrobars and taverns. You will learn to distinguish between tapas, pintxos, platos, platillos and raciones, will see, taste and participate in the daily life of the capital, will explore different neighborhoods and feel the contagious buzz of the night city.

We took an Urban Adventures Tapas and drinks walking tour of Madrid last week and despite the fact that it was raining heavily most of the time, we had a fantastic night with the most wonderful, knowledgeable and pleasant guide ever - Leila. We visited several tapas bars including the San Miguel Market which is great fun. Leila was full of interesting facts and we learned so much about the real Madrid. I would highly recommend Urban Adventures (I have been on others of their excursions in various cities) and Leila in Madrid especially.

We demystify Spanish wine in a fun way, with no pretentiousness, witty banter and bad jokes. Oh, and we try lovely wines!
Inclusions: 3 generous glasses of Spanish wine
Exclusions:
Luke and Roque know their stuff and their stuff is Spanish wines! The "Inside the bottle" wine tasting in the shop were lots of fun where you not only could taste awesome wines but also learn about spanish wines, culture and meet very interesting people from all over the world. During lockdown Luke and Roque came up with the idea of "Lockdown wine tasting". Their selection of wine boxes (sent to your home) matched the expectations: nothing less than excellent wines! (and at affordable prices) . If you visit Madrid, do not hesitate to stop by their shop (very close to plaza Mayor, so no excuse!), you won't regret it!

We have always loved eating empanadas in Spain, especially those in Galicia, so it was thrilling to learn how to make them under the skilled instruction of Arantxa. She showed us exactly how to make an empanada, from the dough to the filling, while also discussing the interesting history of this classic Spanish food. A week later, I made my first empanada at home according to Arantxa's recipe. It was delicious and I can't wait to make another. It is going to become part of my regular rotation, as there is so much variety of what you can stuff the dough with. I recommend any cooking class with Arantxa. Even on Zoom, which is not easy, she was a very engaging teacher.
