Visiting Madrid for the first time in a few weeks. - 06/05/12 10:27 AM
Hi!
This is my first post. I looked around the forum and wanted to get the very latest info, and hopefully you all can help!
We are going to Madrid in a few weeks, (I'm tagging along on a business trip) and haven't had a lot of time to research or prepare! Neither of us speaks Spanish, but we would really like to enjoy all of the fantastic things in Madrid!
We are both foodies- though not wine drinkers (he gets migraines from red wine, I generally prefer an interesting beer) and I am interested in the art museums! A bullfight is a possibility, though I am not sure of our reaction to it.
I would definitely appreciate a recommend for a Tapas tour with an English speaking guide. We love exploring our hometown for all kinds of the BEST food- from street food to fine dining- so that is probably the most important question.
Transportation, hotel, etc. is already arranged.
Suggestions for do-able day trips are also a possibility, and general cautions and advice are greatly appreciated too.
Thank you so much for your time!!! So excited to visit!
Ruby.
