Fantastic tour!

This was a fantastic tour! We were lucky to have only three of us in our tour as it was the same day as the Madrid Marathon. Laszlo did a super job with our tour and clearly loves what he does. He kept it fun and entertaining as he explained the history and all the sites seen. We would definitely recommend this tour and would do another tour with Laszo.
