Visits to the most emblematic places of Madrid

Discover the capital’s most emblematic sites with our walking tours through Madrid. Walking along the streets of the Spanish capital is the best option for delighting yourself with its most characteristic monuments, museums, and plazas. That is what will happen when you go on one of our guided walking tours in Madrid.

We offer some itineraries that will show you the range of all the attractions in the city’s historical area. Our guides show you modern-day Madrid and what the city was like in the past. Therefore we make various themed tours available, which will contribute to a global perspective regarding the capital. And each one of the tours will show you historical episodes or relevant people who have shaped the current character of Madrid.

¿What walking tour can be done in Madrid?

We invite you to visit the Madrid of the Habsburgs and see its impressive artistic legacy with jewels of Spanish heritage like the Royal Palace. And to continue with the historical evolution of the city and, in general, the entire country, we also offer you the possibility of taking a tour through the Madrid of the Bourbons, which will take you to amazing places like the Puerta de Alcala (Alcala Gate).

But the must-see places in Madrid are numerous. And you can see and get to know all of them on our walking tours. A variety of guided tours will take you to the Plaza Mayor, the Cathedral of the Almudena, the famous fountains of Cibeles and Neptune, or the most popular and vital place in the city: Puerta del Sol (Gate of the Sun).

However, not everything in Madrid can be appreciated from its streets. We provide other, quite different tours. For example, you can go on a guided tour through the galleries in the Prado Museum. We have selected the masterpieces of one of the most important art collections in the world and present them to you on this guided tour.

The Prado is the great art temple of Madrid, and our tours can take you to other unique thematic havens, such as the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium and the Ventas bullring, two guided tours that captivate all fans of football and bullfighting.

To finish up, we offer a really fun tour where customs, cuisine, and a good chat come together. Our guides will take you to sample one of the most typical traditions in Madrid. Go out for tapas at the most popular streets, pubs, and taverns. It’s a tour that will give you the best tastes possible during your stay in the capital.

In short, there is a Madrid for every visitor, and with our proposed guided tours through Madrid, you will undoubtedly find the charms that you’re searching for in the Spanish capital.

It is worthwhile. We went with our children who did not like art really much, but they loved the Prado, thanks also to the explanations of the guides.

Charming guide with jokes the whole time, so that it wasn’t a very serious or boring visit. Good detail on his part.

A must if you are in Madrid. The visit was great and we didn’t have to wait to enter.

Our guide chose what she considered to be the most important paintings to tell us more about them. It seemed to me like there were more works that we could not see although I don’t know if we could have seen them with a little more time.

The Prado Museum is better than the Reina Sofía museum. I went with my husband and we loved the Prado Museum, the Reina Sofía not so much.

A must in Madrid. I went with my partner and we were both delighted with the explanations and exhibitions. The tour shows you the great masterpieces and then you get to see the rest of the place at your own rhythm.

An excellent tour of two of the most important museums in Spain and the world. We saw the main highlights of both museums without queuing and then we went back to the Prado Museum on our own. 100% recommended.

The best way to visit both museums. A great tour through the works of the most noted artists and paintings in the Reina Sofia and Prado museums. We wouldve missed a lot of their history and anecdotes if wed done it on our own.
