Old City Madrid Tour You Don’t Want To Miss! - Wow! What an amazing tour of Madrid’s Old City. Beatriz was hands down one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. Her passion and knowledge of Spain’s and Madrid’s history was unbelievable. She was funny and thorough. We never would have seen the “extra” special places in Madrid if we hadn’t gone on the tour with Beatriz. She really went above and beyond! We loved this tour!

A walk thru time - Great history lesson while we walked the the streets. Ana M. was so knowledgeable and customized her commentary to our questions. The time flew by as we travelled from pre-Christian to medieval to the renaissance! Recommend this tour if you want to see history as you hear about it

David made an impact! - David did an amazing job representing his country. He went out of his way to help behind the standard tour. His knowledge and sense of humor shine and he’s a real asset to Babylon Tours. I wouldn’t hesitate to return for another tour in the future.
