Best Tour Guide in Madrid!
We had an incredible experience touring Madrid with Julio Cesar! He was knowledgeable, kind, and had a great way of connecting with both of our kids (ages 6 and 13), keeping them engaged and curious the entire time. Julio showed us places and shared insights we never would have discovered on our own. It truly felt like exploring the city with a friend who loves Madrid and wants you to love it too. We couldn’t recommend him more!

Fantastic tour with María!
María is a knowledgeable and delightful tour guide. My daughter and I had a great time learning about the history of the art movements and how they were influenced by Spanish and European history. Maria encouraged us to see the works we already knew and loved and introduced us to new artists who have become new favorites. I can’t recommend this tour enough!
