Brilliantly entertaining Madrid tour
We had a brilliant history walking tour with Beatriz! She kept us captivated for 3 hours on a very warm Monday evening, both us parents and our 16 and 13 year olds. She brought a wide range of Madrid's history to life - using different spots around the city as starting points for fascinating insights and vignettes that left us all feeling we understood Madrid and Spain much better. She was particularly brilliant and engaging our teenagers in conversation, and showing the contemporary relevance of what she was telling us. Highly recommend.

A great personal tour of Comido Madrileño
Ari was a great personal tour guide to traditional local food and history!
We had great conversation about life in Spain and regional foods, which was great given I’m moving to northern Spain this year.
She’s friendly, funny, and gave great recommendations for the rest of my time in Madrid.
