Wicked Awesome Tour from two Bostonians! - What a great tour! So interesting and fun. Well worth it! Loved it. Tour guide Michaela was excellent! She gave us fun quizzes on what we learned throughout the tour and waited for me to meet the group when we were late. Make sure you use WhatsApp so they can get in touch with you. We tried to go by the emailed location and it was incorrect.

The Great tour of Madrid - The Madrid tour was an immersive journey through the heart of Spanish culture, bustling with vibrant energy and rich history. From the majestic Royal Palace to the iconic Prado Museum, every corner of the city exuded charm and elegance. Exploring the charming streets of Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol was a delight, while indulging in authentic tapas and fine Spanish wine added a flavorful dimension to the experience. The architectural marvels of Gran VÃa and the serene tranquility of Retiro Park provided a perfect balance of excitement and relaxation. Overall, the Madrid tour was an unforgettable adventure filled with awe-inspiring sights and unforgettable memories.

Madrid tour with Auba - Auba was an amazing tour guide. She kept everyone engaged with her energy as well a carefully crafted booklet with pictures to add humor and context to the history she taught us about. The best part is that Auba gave us an interactive quiz at the end, which reinforced what we learned and made sure we retained all the key bits of information. Auba also gives a carefully curated list of recommendations. She’s amazing.
