We are visiting Madrid In a few weeks. Can you tell me what area you stayed in? Gracias!

[@j.c.15]

I was going to ask the same thing since I'm planning on going solo in October

[@EatSeeRV]

@j.c.15 that'll be such a lovely time to go with the leaves!

I really feel like Spain is the greatest country in the world to visit!!!

[@EatSeeRV]

It's a wonderful country!

[@miguelgonzalogonzalez1417]

You have reason!!

[@davidcrespo8026]

I adore Madrid, Im from Miami and I was there last weeks and I was absolutelly shocked by the beauty of the city, the life, the culture, food the coooool neightbourhoods, reminds me NYC but with european style. I swear repeat the experience. Great great videooo

[@EatSeeRV]

Thank you!! It really is such an incredible city.

[@Eric_15974]

Madrid es muy hermoso, saludos desde Lima ciudad de los reyes 😎🇵🇪

[@jsmorenus8038]

Congratulations, your information is very accurate. You really know the Spanish cuisine and how to enjoy it.

[@EatSeeRV]

Thank you! And yes I do 😂😁

[@BGM16]

That's a nice positive comment, I hate when people post negativity, regardless of the subject.

[@egutiguti3337]

Felicidades. Un vídeo absolutamente fantástico. Has captado el espíritu de la ciudad y tus informaciones y vivencias han sido muy muy realistas.

[@EatSeeRV]

Gracias!

[@codeTRIP777B-TRIP00]

Thank you immensely for the wonderful video about traveling to Madrid! ❤Your detailed tips are perfect for newcomers like me who want to plan their itinerary carefully. After Barcelona I'm going to take the train to Madrid, my friend said it only takes about two and a half hours and it's very convenient. And she also taught me how to buy cheap tickets! I can't wait for my exciting trip to Spain after my final exam!

[@EatSeeRV]

Have a blast! We took the train from Madrid to the south then to Barcelona. We LOVE traveling by train there.

[@MattJWoz]

I really enjoyed this video and, having visited the city quite a few times as well, I think you hit on a lot of the best things to see and do and your presentation was engaging too! Even though I've seen these sites before, I still loved watching and it made me that much more excited for my next trip back to Spain! Thanks for the video! The one thing I'd push back on a bit is the comment on the metro, though. I find it to be very well connected with many stations which are right outside or a very short walk away from lots of points of interest and, in my opinion, the metro in Madrid is better connected than the one in Barcelona. Of course, I recognize each person's experience may be different, and it depends where you want to go, but for anyone watching that might be researching a visit to Madrid, I'd consider the metro as an amazing way to get around in general. In less than 15 minutes on line 2, you can get from Retiro station to Noviciado station without a transfer, then walk to Templo de Debod in about 10 minutes, passing through the Plaza de España, which is worth a visit, on the way. Otherwise, I agree with everything else you said in the video! Thanks for sharing your experience with the amazing city of Madrid with the world!

[@EatSeeRV]

That's wonderful. Totally get everyone has different opinions about the metro. I think it didn't help that several of the lines were under renovation during that time, so it was less connected than normal.

[@robert111k]

Madrid has over 3.800 parks and public gardens. In fact, Retiro Park is only the fifth in extension.

[@EatSeeRV]

Looking forward to exploring more of it's parks when we return

[@carmenruiz5033]

[@eugenioolazabal1867]

Outstanding hallmarks in your video. Even "madrileños" like this one. Contact the Tourism Board in all cities and "regiones autónomas". You should be paid for creating these types of content. Excellent job. Even liked the outtakes at the very end.

[@EatSeeRV]

Very kind to say this. Thank you and so glad you enjoyed it!

[@richmck007]

Love Madrid. We live in the South and whenever we can, we take the Ave ( fast train ) and visit. I would not say it is as intense and NY Times Square as you can escape the main streets by navigating the back streets. Always something to discover in Madrid. Avoid the tourist traps like the San Miguel food and drink market. Overpriced! There are many more… Visit Toledo, Segovia, EL Escorial, la Granja all within a day’s trip outside of Madrid. Loved the video.

[@EatSeeRV]

Thank you! We love Madrid too

Hello! Not sure if I missed it or if you did not include it but what is the name of the first stop on the tapas crawl where you had the croquetas ? Thanks in advance and thank you for the informative video!

[@EatSeeRV]

Called Cava Baja is the main street we referenced for the tapa crawl. We didn't share the name of the first spot. We honestly don't remember what it was (and the food was just okay).

[@Mettsemmel]

@@EatSeeRV I had the same question first and tried to find it based on the clue that there seems to be a "Salon de Juegos Nevada" across from the street, but couldn't find it. But since the food was just okay I stop looking now haha. Thank you for your video, was very helpful!

[@christopherpaul7588]

San Miguel is the oldest market in Madrid! It's great but so busy always.

[@EatSeeRV]

Yes it is and a beautiful building, but the food inside isn't necessarily the best. It's also more expensive.

[@christopherpaul7588]

@@EatSeeRV I guess it depends what you get. There is a stand of homemade croquetas that are amazing. I've also had amazing Mexican food there. Also yeah the food might be more expensive but I also got a nice glass of wine for 3 euros there once.

No sé si te he ententido que el metro de Madrid no es mejor conectado en comparación con el de Barcelona. No solo no es verdad si no que es todo lo contrario. El Metro de Madrid es de los mejores del mundo y por supuesto mejor que el de Barcelona.

[@MattJWoz]

Totalmente de acuerdo. La red de Madrid, en mi opinión, es más fácil de usar y entender, los billetes son más baratos y multipersonales así con un billete de 10 viajes viaja todo el grupo, tiene más estaciones, y las estaciones están justo al lado de la mayoría de los puntos de interés. Vine a los comentarios precisamente para ver si fuera el único con esta opinión.Jaja

[@jeanettevillanueva6010]

Was it hard to order or was it hard to read the menu?

[@EatSeeRV]

I know Spanish so no. Most places in Madrid will have English speaking servers but I'd practice basic food ordering skills before going just in case!

Ahh good to know. Although disappointing haha

[@nonarainer8926]

[@jenniferp7497]

Any recommendations for meatless tapas?

[@EatSeeRV]

Patatas bravas, croquettes that aren't jamon (many will be cheese or a veggie), tortilla de patatas, queso manchego, pimento de pardon. Stuffed peppers (many will have fish so clarify before ordering). You can read more of what to eat here eatseerv.com/what-to-eat-in-spain/

Wohoo so fun! Madrid is chilly in winter. Nothing like Canada haha but it snowed several feet last year. Spring (April and May) and fall (September and October) are the best months to visit for sure. Do not go in summer (especially August)! We were there mid Sept. And the weather was PERFECT
