Love this historical tour of Madrid - Glen our tour guide was very enthusiastic. The tour was very interactive. He showed us around Madrid and gave us a little history. The tour was also better because there were only 6 of us.

Walk with the Habsburgs :-) - Tour to the ancient part of Madrid to discover the Habsburg kingdom. It was a very nice and fun walk, not the usual guided tour. Thanks to our guide Mikael

Interesting and fun! Highly recommend! - We did our tour with Melissa and it was great! We have done heaps of walking tours before but Melissa was definitely the best guide we’ve had. She had a lot of knowledge and knew how to tell us the history of the country in a fun and entertaining way. The tour was easy to book, and quite easy to find them too. Definitely a 10/10. Highly recommended!

History of Madrid - I did the tour with Melissa and she is amazing. We were 4 of us, 2 children and my husband and I. This was a tour of the history of Spain; before the 16th century.
She walked through main sites of the center of Madrid such as Puerta del Sol, Cathedral, Royal Palace among others. Very details tour. Highly recommended. We were first time visitors in Spain.

A Passionate and Unforgettable Walking Tour with Glenn - We had the absolute best time with Glenn on our walking tour of Madrid. From the moment we started, his enthusiasm and energy were contagious — you could tell right away how much he truly loves sharing the city with others.
What made the experience even more special was how personal Glenn made it. Beyond the official itinerary, he took us to little hidden spots we would have never discovered on our own, weaving in his own stories and insights that brought Madrid to life in such a unique way.
It never felt rushed or scripted — instead, it felt like exploring the city with a passionate friend who knows every corner and wants you to love it just as much as he does.
If you’re in Madrid and want more than just the usual highlights, Glenn’s tour is an absolute must. Highly recommend!
