Hola! I’m Ricky - a Madrid local with a soft spot for good stories, great food, and even better company. What I love most about this city is its unbeatable atmosphere, the cultural mix, and the way Madrileños truly know how to live well (siesta included). You’ll usually find me exploring hidden corners, sipping something delicious, or sharing wild anecdotes from Madrid’s Golden Age - especially around the Literary District, La Latina, Lavapiés, and the buzzing city centre. If you’re into quirky history, tapas hopping, and laughing your way through Madrid’s streets, I’ve got you covered – with charm, facts, and probably a churro or two.

My reviews

Booked a 2--hour private tour and Ricardo was my guide. Definitely worth it as you see things that you probably would not see on your own, and Ricardo's knowledge of landmarks and less famous landmarks gives the background that ties the picture and history all together!

My guide Ricky (City unscripted) was AMAZING!!! He knew so much about the history and the culture, in & outs of the city. I would have booked more time if I didn't have other plans! Going back for sure.

We loved just wondering around with Ricardo. He knows the city very well and he is a skilled storyteller. It was our first day so we got a feel for the city and will dive deeper on our own tomorrow. I highly recommend Ricardo.

Ricardo was a wonderful guide! Very friendly and knowledgeable about the history of Madrid. We enjoyed a leisurely walk through the city and saw Plazas, the royal palace, amazing cathedrals and beautiful neighborhoods. We stopped at a candy store for samples, we enjoyed a glass of wine at a cafe. Ricardo also helped us with important Spanish phrases and recommended delicious wines! Truly a fantastic tour!
