Your Madrid tour itinerary
Adapting to your chosen hotel and your particular historical interests, I will customize the tour seeking your greatest interests in terms of history and culinary preferences. If your hotel is in the city center I will suggest to start at our captivating 'literary hub, ' a realm that once welcomed the finest wordsmiths, poets, and playwrights such as Hemingway or Cervantes. History unveils itself as we delve into the legacy of the Inquisition and explore how families might have adjusted their culinary practices to evade suspicion and persecution. The intention of this tour is to follow a medieval itinerary to experience the flavors of the local cuisine amidst the scary tales of the Plaza Mayor, the palace intrigues, and its lavish Royal Palace. Allowing us to catch glimpses of the past through remnants of Jewish and Moorish influences, savoring food and drink in the very locations where medieval figures once did. As we conclude our journey, a leisurely walk through time leads us to the heart of city.
