If you are looking to take a day trip to Segovia and you enjoy wine then I recommend Win Bus.

I did two different tours with Devour during my trip to Madrid…read more The first was the Madrid Prado Museum Tour & VIP Botin Lunch. I highly recommend this if you are interested in a streamlined visit to the Prado really highlighting and focusing on particular noteworthy works. This worked well for me because I'm not as familiar with some of the artists whose work are showcased here, and I learned A LOT by taking this tour. You also stop for a little tapa and vermouth before having lunch at Botin, which was quite an experience. It's a tough reservation to get on your own, and enjoying it as part of this tour is well worth it. The second tour I did was the Ultimate Spanish Cuisine tour. This tour stopped at a variety of locations. We sampled porra (basically thick churros) and chocolate, "pregnant" sourdough buns stuffed with chorizo, a variety of olives, vermouth, boquerones, olive oil, several hams, some fruit, a cheese selection with wine pairing, and cake. It was a delicious and well-rounded food experience. Montse was my guide for both of these tours and she is absolutely fantastic! After meeting her on the first tour, I told her I was taking another tour and her office was able to schedule her to be my tour guide again for the second one. She actually studied art so she was extra knowledgeable at the Prado, but also had so much to share about Madrid and answered so many of our questions. I'm so glad I booked these tours with Devour on my trip. I would definitely consider their tours for other cities I visit in the future as well.

My family and I had booked flights to Lisbon, Portugal and to leave Madrid Spain. We were a family…read moreof four traveling (2 parents with 2 kids in the middle teen years) and with 2 grandparents in their 70s. Our goal was to stay in Lisbon one week, Madrid for one week, and then look for day trips outside of enjoying the city areas. I had spoken with several tour groups but they focus primarily either for Portugal or Spain. Usually not both. I chose Letango for the main reason that they could develop an itinerary along with scheduling drivers. I knew that with the grandparents traveling by bus or train would be harder on them with the extra walking involved. Carlos did a great job of planning the entire itinerary. He planned 2 walking tours in Lisbon, 2 day trips out of Lisbon (Sintra and Evora), 2 walking tours of Madrid, a tapas tour in Madrid, 2 days trips from Madrid (Segovia/Avilla, and Toledo), a Flamenco show, and a cooking class. That allowed our family to focus on the culture and the trip versus focusing on the logistics. All of the tour guides provided were courteous and helpful. They all recognized the wide range areas and adapted speaking points, walking pace, or in answering questions to all of us. They were also flexible when our whims caused us to stay in one place longer or ask about stopping at a specific location. I hope to travel back to those countries and will be looking to work with Letango again.

5 Stars for a wonderful vermouth tasting!…read more While planning a family trip to Spain I made sure to look for tasting experiences in each city. In Madrid, I found a guided Vermouth tasting (through Airbnb Experiences) at Madrid & Darracot. It's priced at 20 Euro per person (Fridays and Saturdays) and also available for booking directly through their website. We initially had a tough time finding the shop as it had recently moved locations just up the street, but once we did we had a great time! Our guide was Irish (if I recall) and Spanish, so he was able to do the tasting in English, but also answer questions from my parents in Spanish. He took us through four very distinct Vermouths and helped us get an understanding of the importance of this drink in the country. It was informative, fun, and we got recommendations for the rest of our stay. We of course grabbed a couple of bottles for the evening and we're really impressed by not only their wine and vermouth collection, but also their spirits (including bourbon). Overall, I would highly recommend booking a tasting while in Madrid!
