Explore Madrid’s historic center, Plaza Mayor, and Royal Palace area on a lively 2.5-hour walking tour with local history and tips.

“A couple things: This is inexpensive because the “fees” are backloaded. You have to pay a euro for an earpiece so you can hear the guide.

As for the tour, our guide David was nice and entertaining. The walk was filled with some comedy and drama, but enjoyable. More a history of the city and Spain than places of importance.

“On our last day in Madrid, we visited the Royal Palace. Our guide, Beatrice, was the best. We learned a lot about the Spanish royal family throughout the centuries, and she offered us excellent guidance at the palace. I felt like I was on a school trip with my history teacher. It was an awesome experience that I recommend to everyone. The tour was well organized, fun, and full of valuable information. Thank you, Beatrice for making our last day in Madrid remarkable and beautiful.”

“We took this last-minute tour (which was a bit expensive), but we were a bit stupid not to book well in advance (poor planning on our end). But in the end we are so happy with our choice. Our guide Borges was very professional, friendly and had a really nicely organised tour. There was just the right amount of details, and he answered all our questions. It was such a wonderful experience and we highly recommend this tour.”
