Hi! I’m Patricia, a local host here in Madrid. There’s always something new to discover, whether it’s a hidden gem tucked away in a quiet corner or a lively spot buzzing with energy. Madrid truly has it all, and I’m excited to share its magic with you. I love exploring the city’s diverse neighborhoods like Malasaña, Chueca, Lavapiés, La Latina, and Palacio. Each has its own unique charm, from trendy cafes and boutique shops to historic streets steeped in stories. One of my favorite pastimes is uncovering hidden places and trying out new restaurants. As someone who knows Madrid’s history inside and out, I love weaving the city’s fascinating past into the present-day experiences. Whether you’re here for the history, the food, or simply the incredible atmosphere, I’m here to make your visit unforgettable. Let’s explore this amazing city together!

We had a fantastic guide with Patricia! She had obviously carefully planned the walking tour and gave us lots of history and fact about Madrid (and Spain in general). We really enjoyed this tour.

We really enjoyed our walking tour. Patrice gave us an excellent walking tour and much history of both Madrid and Spain. We are very happy we did this excursion.

We had a fantastic experience exploring Madrid on foot with Patricia as our guide. In just three fun-filled hours, she introduced us to hidden gems and iconic landmarks that would’ve taken us weeks to discover on our own. Her deep knowledge of the city’s history—both old and new—gave us a richer appreciation for everything we saw, from historic sites to modern-day highlights (including shops we couldn’t resist returning to the very next day!). She even brought along presentation slides, adding an extra layer of context and engagement to the tour. If you're looking for a tour that's informative, engaging, and well worth your money, look no further—Patricia is the guide you want!
