Prado Museum Tour & Vip Botin Lunch

Try the unforgettable tortilla de patata, or strong Manchego cheese or some tender suckling lamb. El Sobrino de Botín, the oldest restaurant in the world, specializes in roasted lamb leg and and the famous cochinillo (suckling pig). They still use the same old wood-fired ovens that they did in 1725 when it was founded, and their slow-cooking process produces the most succulent meat you’ll ever try. But your day won’t end with lunch, but a trip to the Prado Museum too, where you’ll get to skip the long lines and be guided by an expert. If you’re looking to book this trip, click here.

Madrid Tapas & Flamenco Tour

Watch the best flamenco show in Madrid mere steps away from the performers dancing on stage. Listen to the poly-rhythmic feet stomping and passionate voices. See the specialized shoes and guitars, and potentially buy one, on this exciting adventure where you’ll get to learn the history of flamenco and its influence on Spanish culture. Click here to book a night you’ll never forget, praised by customers as one of the top 5 things to do in Europe.

Huertas Neighborhood Food & Market Tour

Visit family-run restaurants and taste the recipes that have been passed on from one generation to the next, while exploring the Huertas neighborhood and its food market. Help yourself to some delicious cured ham, marinated olives, craft beer or even some churros if you have a sweet tooth, all while helping the local businesses thrive. Can’t decide? Not to worry—act like a local and order a variety of tapas, sampling everything as you stroll through the whole market. You’ll also get to meet the people whose families have been running these stalls for generations, like Javier, who has taken over the family business from his father and now serves the next generation.

Tapas, Taverns & History tour

If you’re looking for a more history-focused tour, join us as we explore Plaza de la Villa, the Royal Palace, and the Plaza Mayor, which hides a dark past behind its charming facade. While the palace no longer houses the royal family, it does host historical artifacts and works of art, and you can easily lose yourself in its many picturesque gardens. Hear the story of how Madrid became the center of one of the largest empires the world has ever known, and walk the same streets walked by its rulers.

No matter what you’re into—wine, good food, history—you’ll find the perfect tour with Devour Madrid. Take advantage of everything the Spanish capital has to offer in the most authentic way possible.
