More vetting of their guides needed

susanne_g, Feb 2026

Misleading meet up point ( which was not the “guide” fault). The guide used a gps to walk us around and looked up and read from Wikipedia a few points of interest. I don’t think she had ever been in downtown Madrid before!! It was both painful and laughable how little she knew where she was and what to show us. We cut the tour short and took off by our self. More vetting of their guides needed.

Silvano was great. Very...

Todd_B, Apr 2025

Silvano was great. Very personable. Took us all over Madrid. Be prepared to do a lot of walking. Makes you feel very comfortable. Would highly recommend

Welcome to Madrid

Vicki_B, Jun 2024

Yannick was a great guide. Great communication before the tour and customised the walk to suit our interests and physical ability. He was very knowledgable and made us feel like we were old friends very quickly. A great way to acclimatise ourselves with Madrid so we knew what we might like to explore further later.

Mixed experience

Teresita_R, Oct 2023

The tour coordinator gave us the wrong address and pin for the meeting point. We spent in unnecessary taxi fee to get to the given meeting point which was incorrect. After communicating with the tour guide, he went to pick us up and then started the tour. Ricardo, the guide, was very amicable and accommodating. I recommend Ricardo as a guide but the company made us waste time and money.

Terrible experience

Arelis_H, Jun 2022

Our tour guide first said she was running a few minutes late which we said was fine. However, when we went to the location we did not find her. We called her at her cell number that was given to us and she never answered. Then we received an email that she could not find us even though we were right at the location given and described our clothing and she said she was cancelling our tour as she had other tours to do during the day. We have requested a refund and are still waiting to receive it. We also had to then find another tour.

Touring your way

Elisabeth, Sept 2021

This is a great way to see Madrid. The operator schedules you with a Local, who contacts you to figure out what you want to see or do during the six hour period of time scheduled. For myself, I wanted an orientation to Madrid and points of interest that I could come back and investigate further. My local guide and I explored several parts of Madrid and I was shown how to navigate public transport in the city. The tour was overall exactly what I wanted with the added benefit of not feeling like I spent all day with a guide but with a friend who lived locally.

Bonne appréciation de l’activité en général

Isabelle_R, Jul 2023

Guide sympathique et avec beaucoup d’entregent! Beaucoup de connaissances générale; nous a amené a des endroits inusité et semble aimé beaucoup son travail! Pourrais peut-être approfondir ses connaissances en histoire ; personnage important représenté sur les statue de la ville; ce qu’ils ont fait etc
