Reviews of Our Madrid Experiences

We had a wonderful tour with our guide, Pedro! He was very communicative prior to our tour to be sure he knew what we would be interested in seeing and plan the tour to our requests. He also was able to meet us at our Airbnb to start the tour so we did not have to worry about finding the meeting spot and was able to give us some information about the part of the city we were staying in. He was very knowledgeable, especially regarding architecture in the city. His pleasant demeanor and excitement to show us around was so welcoming and a great way to get us acclimated to the city! Highly recommend!

Tour was not about finding the big stuff-- that can be easily done online. Lisa the guide was excellent at sharing great small stuff and giving advice on where to go and making effective use of time and resources. She was very good in both planning and in the execution of the tour. We highly recommend her.

Carmen, my guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about her country and city Madrid. I wanted items off the beaten path outside of the main ticket landmarks and items and she delivered. These tours are customable to what you want to see.

Lisa was so fabulous. Took the time to make sure she covered what was of interest to us as well as significant and unusual facts and stories about Madrid and its history. Many local insider “tips” which we will find helpful during our stay in Madrid and Spain.
