Could not have been better!

Belan was wonderful! Informative, kind, thoughtful and nicely organized in this guided tour. Terrific insights into the history of Span and Madrid, architecture, various cultural influences, etc. A perfect way to get introduced to this city’s heritage. We could not have enjoyed it more!

An excellent private tour with Maria. She was very friendly, knowledgeable and gave helpful tips beforehand as well as afterwards. We greatly enjoyed her expertise and humour around a wonderful city. Definitely recommended! She also let us stop off to buy some yummy Easter specialities- torrijas!

Despite the rainy day, we had a lovely experience with Maria. Her knowledge of the culture, history and art of the Old City was exceptional, and she was also friendly, open and interesting to talk to.

Great experience in a small group setting

Booked the tour the night before and showed up the next morning. Was pleasantly surprised to find out that our party of 2 were the only people in the group. Got a very personalized tour and our guide was the best ever. She took her time explaining all the sites and even gave her recommendations of the best places to eat at. Overall great experience and would highly recommend to anyone looking to book.

Excellent tour with Stefi

We had a wonderful tour with Stefi on 25.02.25, she made contact the day before and on the day she was very informative, attentive and spoke excellent English. The tour was well paced and covered Madrid’s history and sites really well. Stefi gave us plenty of good recommendations for food and drink which we used. Cannot rate her highly enough, excellent value for money.

Fantastic tour!

We had a great time with the tour guide Belen! She is knowledgeable and truthful! Down to earth and it has provided us a good Spanish history! We enjoyed it very much! She even gave us extra time so that she could tell us more of the old town and some interesting stories!
