Discover Madrid in Three Days

  Enjoy the latest blob by the Avid Traveller:




In the Autumn of 2024, Calum Glenny,the Avid Travellrer embarked on a whirlwind 72-hour journey to Madrid with buddies, starting with a dynamic, history-filled city exploration. Our centrally located hotel on Calle de Atocha made it simple to access Madrid's cultural and cooking highlights. Walking through dynamic squares, we immersed ourselves in the city's history and lively atmosphere.


Our group's diverse choices led to different activities. Suzanne and Richard started the firstday one evening with a remarkable dinner at Bodega de los Secretos, a relaxing, centuries-old dining establishment full of appeal. The following my other half and I joined a tapas and wine walking tour led by the enthusiastic Mario. We went to several local hotspots, including a mushroom specialty bar and an Iberian delicatessen, while finding out about Madrid's history and culture.

The last day was everything about cooking, with Pamela and Bill organizing a paella masterclass at the glamorous Ritz Mandarin Oriental. Chef Oliver Menendez assisted us through the complexities of making conventional Valencian paella and black rice with squid and lobster. The experience was coupled with tastings of local sherries and wines, making it among the journey's highlights.

We rounded off the weekend with a visit to Teatro Flamenco Madrid. This intimate place showcased the raw emotion and appeal of flamenco dancing, providing a perfect cultural capstone.

Throughout the trip, we took pleasure in unforgettable meals at regional restaurants like Casa Verona and Casa Alberto, where we delighted in genuine Spanish dishes such as anchovies in olive oil, croquettes, and even the famous calamari sandwich. The Mercado de San Miguel was another standout, offering a look into Spain's abundant culinary traditions.
