Traveler reviews
Unforgettable experiences
There were five of us from the family and we were all delighted with the explanations from the young man who was Rambo with his pleasantness and with the learning we obtained... frankly we loved the tour
Tour didn’t go ahead....
Tour didn’t go ahead. Which was lucky because it was in Spanish, not English! I’m glad we had just enough time to run back to Sol to join a different group
Fun time
Had a great time! The tour was very informative and the guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable.
Inquisition Tour in Spanish
Laszlo gves a clear and fascinating tour into the Spanish Inquisition. I learned so much. He is warm, welcoming and considerate of everyone. Muchas gracias.
Mysteries and legends of Madrid
Guide Rodrigo, magnificent. Given the difficulty today with processions, he has solved it out of 10. And the exhibition of the activity, spectacular. Highly recommended.
