What travelers think of our Madrid experiences
What you’ll do
You’ll join one of our local Madrid hosts to explore the barrio of La Latina, a neighborhood known for its diversity, an atmosphere of contrasts, and lively personality - which, in a city as vibrant as Madrid is saying something.
Amongst the narrow lanes and medieval streets - the area is actually built on an ancient Islamic fort - are more tapas bars and cantinas than anyone could ever hope for.
You’d be very wrong if you think you’d visit this area and not end up in a tapas bar, sipping an ice-cold mojito or caña (the local measure of beer) with some nibbles at some point.
But of course, there’s more to this character-packed district, and your host can’t wait to share with you the bustling El Rasto flea market (reason enough to time your visit on a Sunday), historic landmarks like San Pedro El Viejo Church, Madrid’s second oldest church which dates back to the 11th century, and the Mercado de la Cebada, a 138-year-old market which has turned from a farmers’ market to a mural splashed hip(ster) venue for clothing, art, and food.
