Walk with Julian
We were a group of 6 British adults who had been to Madrid before staying and visiting in central Madrid. Our time with Julian was a neighbourhood off the beaten track tour and it didn’t disappoint. Interesting buildings monuments churches best tapas bars and bakeries were all part of the tour! Julian was well informed providing excellent commentary throughout our tour. At our request we had short pit stops for a glass sherry and some delicious famous pastries. Julian was a charming guide and we enjoyed our experience very much.
