Yep, you do want tun/tap. But if you create a regular bridge and tells virt-manager or libvirt to use this for your virtual machines, virt-manager/libvirt will take care of the tun/tap setup.
This is what I have done. One of difficulties I still have is discovering where I set the IP addresses for the virtual machines. It seems that I get some variant of 192.168.122.x where I need an actual routable address in the 216.185.71.0/24 space.
You need to configure your virtual machine to use a shared device, eg. your bridge. If your client gets a 192.168.122.x address, you've setup your virtual machine to use usermode networking.
The link which Kai pasted also explains this...
