TRAVEL AS AN INSIDER
in Europe

  We loved not only the food at Botín but the one hour tour of this historical 297 year old restaurant before our lunch. We learnt not only about the restaurant… read more but also some of the history about Spain. It was really special to be sitting having a meal and being part of this little piece of Madrid’s history.

  Excellent experience at Los Caracoles, Barcelona – We have a friend that reccommend "Los Caracoles" restaurant to my husband and me so we took the visit + dinner because this is a very interesting place with a… read more lot of history.
Our guide Michael was such a sweetheart! Very talkative and passionate. Even though he had to use his notes a couple of times, because it was a lot of information, he was very professional, polite, and spontaneous. We clicked immediately and we talked about more than "Los Caracoles". It was very nice.
The place is awesome. It has a charm that cannot be mimicked, but that is the direct result of years and years of experience and work. There are pictures of a lot of celebrities from the past and the present.
The dinner afterwards was excellent, we had, of course, the caracoles and the bouillabaisse soup. You can tell the owners are very careful with maintaining the legacy because they were actually working there. The ambiance is very noisy and festive, like the good old tavern where everybody goes to chat and have a good time with friends. The servers were very friendly and witty… Remarkable!

  "The Botin Experience is amazing" – Me and my son stayed the night in Madrid and booked the tour of the Botin Experience. We had the most beautiful and pleasurable experience touring the restaurant with our… read more guide Jorge who was very pleasant and informative and made us comfortable and laugh thru the whole tour. we will definitely book it again on our next trip into Madrid and look forward to booking the walking tour of old Madrid as well. I highly recommend any of the tours with Insiders Travel as they were most accommodating from the 1st time I contacted and then anytime after that when i had any questions and followed up on our experience as well.
