Madrit'te ekim 25 yılın'da gittim, harika bir başkent, insanlar çok alçak gönüllüler, tarih-i yerlerini gördüm eğlenceleri ve yemekleri harika bol bol bira içtim, deniz ürünleri çok güzel ve pahalı değil, oradan Barsalona'ya geçtim orası'da çok güzel

What you call seafood soup is just boquerones en vinagre. And it's a tapa. hahaha I just had to say it.

I found this video very amusing. I am a spaniard (born and raised in Madrid) and I've been living in the US for 8 years.
I watched this video and wondered why am I still in the United States. LMFAO

I lived in Madrid like 6 months, somewhere in 1993. I loved it, apart from any official things.

As I understand it, Tinto de Verano is a more traditional Spainish Drink that Sangria. Sangria is generally only drunk at parties/celebrations.

Sitting here in Madrid enjoying some tinto de veranos and reflecting on how informative your video was. Thanks from one small town Illinoisan to another.

I love bocadillos! I’m still dreaming about the ones I had in Barcelona!

DON'T expect good service from waiters. They can be rude and will not earn your tip.

@efrainteran8762

GREAT video!!! I agree with just about everything you said about Madrid. Your video production is excellent, as well. Madrid is a beautiful, vibrant and welcoming city and the food & drink are AWESOME and very affordable for the most part.

To eat paella, the best option for a tourist is to search for "arroceria" (rice restaurants) on Google. Only go to those that have a rating of 4.5 or higher. Authentic paella is a Valencian dish made with chicken, rabbit and vegetables (beans, tomatoes, sometimes artichokes). However, there is a wide variety of rice dishes.

@KlausVonPollen

Sangria and paella are things for tourists who don't know anything. We don't drink sangria and we don't usually eat paella outside the home. By the way, sangria is disgusting.

The tap water can be stinky sometimes. Also the prices have increased to 15-20 euros

We went to Madrid Just recently and we loved it. The Plaza Mayor is beautiful and offers many foods alternatives. We took all kind of tours that allows us to see the city in a week. By Plaza Major, we ate at Botin Restaurant, one of the oldest restaurants around. We had cochinito 🐷. It was amazing meal.
The tapas we had were great. I like a little how the Spaniards eat. Small meals. Enjoyed the siestas and the late nights eating outside. The city felt safe for me. Police is very efficient, we saw them off and on every where. They keep their city so clean. Everything early in morning you see government employees sweeping the plazas and the streets. Ut is amazing to see how efficient they are keeping a such of big city so clean! We will go back anytime!!!!

Love this part: dont expect much english. Of course, when you go to a country where English is not the official language, please, take your time to learn some words in local language. Many english speaking tourists believe that "as I speak English, everybody must understand me" maybe your wrong... maybe. If you are the tourist you have to make te effort to understand and be understood.

Look forward to going to Madrid:) thank you for sharing your tips!

Hi Wolter
I really appreciate your channel
I will be traveling to Madrid alone and I will most likely be staying at a hotel closer to Barajas airport . Will I still he close enough to go to Madrid city center with the night life and restaurants? Thank you ❤

Tap water in Madrid is excellent. No need to buy bottled water.

If they eat dinner at 10 PM, what time do they go to work?

I like how u say that there are places that are very touristy, it's true it's better if u know someone who's from the country u visit. Sometimes even there are places to shop that are cheaper like clothing stores or electronic shops if u know someone from the country who can take u there.

Don't eat the Paella in Madrid, go to Valencia, good ones take a long to to come after ordering.

Asking for a photo with the police after they give you directions is SUCH a uniquely American thing that I can’t really get my head around it haha.
