Top Madrid Walking Tours - page 4

Fabulous way of seeing three very interesting cities if you have a limited time. I would definitely recommend this. It’s a long day but well worth it. Eduardo our guide was fantastic. He kept everyone right on time and was quite clearing his instructions.

We had an absolutely wonderful tour of Madrid with Flo. By pure luck, it ended up being just the two of us with her, and it felt like having an incredibly knowledgeable local friend show us the city. Flo’s English is impeccable, and her knowledge goes far beyond dates and landmarks. She has a deep understanding of European history and politics and is wonderful at connecting Madrid’s past to the bigger historical picture. What made the tour especially memorable was her storytelling—this isn’t about racing from one attraction to the next or checking sites off a list. Flo helps you understand the stories, people, politics, and events behind the places you’re seeing, which makes the city come alive in a completely different way. She also has a lovely, light sense of humor, and the conversation flowed so naturally that the time flew by. We learned a tremendous amount while genuinely having fun. If you enjoy history, great storytelling, and actually understanding a city rather than simply seeing it, I can’t recommend Flo highly enough. One of the highlights of our time in Madrid!

The food and drinks provided were excellent and represented a variety iof Spanish fare. The bars/restaurants were very difference in decor and comfortable. The best part was ojur guide MATEO. He was informed and interested in Spanish history--good English and a very pleasant person. I highly recommend this tour.
