This tour provides a lively insight into how is this unique city. Madrid is the oldest capital in Europe, it became the capital of Spain in 1561. Although the city hasn't stopped growing since then, Madrid maintains as a treasure its historical area, the Madrid that we call "castizo", the most authentic Madrid in which, fortunately, I have the pleasure of living! Let me show you my neighbourhood, its history, traditions, legends and its hidden gems. If you like History, this is your tour. The tour is focused in the two historical areas: Madrid of the Hapsburgh and Madrid of the Bourbons. In this tour we'll explore together the Royal Madrid, we'll walk through narrow streets, pedestrian areas and nice boulevards. We'll enjoy the great atmosphere of this very welcoming city and I'll introduce you into its fascinating culture. The tour will be done by walking and, if you feel like resting and relaxing for a while, let me take you for a drink and a "tapa" at one of my favorite typical bars in the Oldtown.
I'll meet you at the lobby of your Hotel while located downtown or downtown at your choice and we'll see together: -The Royal Palace (stop outside) - Santa Mª de la Almudena Cathedral (going inside) -Plaza Mayor square (going inside) -San Miguel Market (goin inside) -Stop and take photos at Puerta del Sol square and the statue "El oso y el madroño" -Km. 0 (stop and take photos) -Parliament building (stop outside) -The triangle of Art (Stop outside Prado, Reina Sofia and Thyssen museums). -Stop and take photos at Monumental fountains by Paseo del Prado (Apolo, Neptuno and Cibeles) -Stop and take photos at Puerta de Alcalá City Gate - Retiro Park (going inside) The itinerary can be adapted to your interests. Do not hesitate to contact me for a customized tour.
