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!

Gwen and myself enjoyed a wonderful tour from Patricia Morcillo on Wednesday, January 7th. Her wealth of knowledge included Sol, The Royal Palace, Plaza Mayor, and much more. For nearly 3 hours we journeyed through the most important historics in Madrid. I’m confident that we learned a lot more because of the Tour from Patricia than previously known. I would recommend the tour to anyone!

I was fortunate enough to get to know our host (Patricia) and experience this tour with my older one. She is very knowledgeable and skilled at what she does. She took the time to help us understand the nuances of Spanish Culture, the city vibes of Madrid and its many hidden spots for shopping, I just wish we had more time on this one! Thanks very much, Patricia! Very much appreciated!

Patricia was so great at orienting us to the city! Every food recommendation she made was incredible, and it was the best food we had across 5 cities. So informative, saw so many cool places, and felt secure navigating Madrid after that first day!
