Great way to see the city and get up to speed on Spanish history - Carmen was a great guide with lots of historical and local knowledge! We covered lots of ground, stopped for drinks and tapas, and saw some sights we would’ve completely missed without a guide.

Great first time experience - Excellent. Great trip with Eva. First trip and had to reschedule last minute (on our side not hers)…. She was so understanding and rescheduled later so convenient for us…. Great job explaining the history of Madrid and really helped us navigate the fun places which was wonderful. Highly recommend.

Madrid Walking Tour - We really enjoyed our tour with Eva. It was a great way to start our time in Madrid, and she provided lots of interesting and useful information. She gave us helpful recommendations for things to do and places to go while we were in town, and took great pictures of us to help us preserve our memories.

Family Walking Tour of Madrid - Hands down this tour was the highlight of our time in Madrid. Perfect combo of history, trivia, Spanish culture, and travelers tips. Our boys (aged 11 and 8) were captivated and can’t stop talking about Patricia. Similarly, my husband and I walked away having fallen further in love with Madrid. Loved this tour so much!

Informative and customized tour from Julian - Julián did a family friendly tour that was both informative and fun. He customized it to our taste. We got to try some ham, chocolate, and my kids loved seeing the nuns (or lack of seeing the nuns), and getting their delicious cookies. He even shared the famous story of Raton Perez, which we are still looking for a book in English for.

Gems & more little gems - Edgard was an amazing guide. His knowledge and personality made this a must do event. Loved the stories and the recommendations he suggested. If you are into photography, he is the local guide for you. Thanks Edgard, you made our Madrid trip truly memorable!

First time in Madrid/Spain/Europe - Great tour today with my guide Dawinson. Being my first time in Madrid/Spain/Europe, he really looked after me. His English was excellent and his knowledge of past and present histories was exceptional. At the end of the tour he took me to a wonderful restaurant for tapas and cold beer. Great way to finish 3 hours and 15km of walking and learning. Highly recommended.

Inspiring with room for improvement - First visit to Madrid. First Tour of the trip. Very worthwhile. Mateo was knowledgeable and pleasant. Could have been more engaging with conversation. But did an excellent job describing the various landmarks and “hidden gems”. The local tapa bar was well received and would have been missed by most locals.
