Traveler reviews
Magnificent tour with Cristiana
Christian: prepared, helpful, discreet, magnificent experience. I highly recommend the walking tour which allows you a historical and cultural overview.
Madrid of legends
Andrea made us laugh a lot and we had a great time. She was super nice and we spent the two hours we didn't even know about it.
Night tour of Madrid
It was very interesting to take part in the guided tour with Andrea, very nice and chatty, through the squares, alleys and monuments of Madrid at night, between history and very particular anecdotes...even though it was in Spanish, as we knew, we had fun and put ourselves to the test of listening to this language with such a pleasant sound!!! So I highly recommend it!
Great walking tour
We had a wonderful two hour walking tour around Madrid with Jose. Jose was very knowledgeable and made the tour fun and informative.
Disappointing
It wasn't exactly this route I took. I did the Madrid Charming one. According to the description, it was allegedly from tales, legends and ghosts of Madrid. It was absolutely disappointing. The guide, although she did know these stories, seemed not to feel like telling them. I have done several tours of this style and without a doubt, this has been the worst by far. Very little grace telling stories that could be very beautiful, dazzling them with comments that rather boycotted his own work as a guide.
