Must see sites in Madrid - Private Walking Tour

Pepe is a very interesting and fun guy! He knows a lot about many diverse topics (e.g. diving in Indonesia, choosing the best Madrid restaurants, etc.). His 'very comprehensive' tour of Madrid started with his meeting us in our hotel near the Palacio, then taking a quick subway ride to the eastern side of the city, so that when we walked back to our hotel, we would see the best sights in chronolocial order. For Roman ruins, to comparing the Habsburg kings, to El-Greco, to Franco's time, to the latest events ... we covered it all, in a 4 hour walk (over flat paths). Sounds like quite a hike, but he made it very interesting. Hey, if a 70+ year old couple can do it easily....

His recall of history was amazing. He was very personable and catered to our choices

Pepe was great. He took us around Madrid, keeping our kids engaged with entertaining stories while sharing anecdotes that made history come to life. He even took us to a local tavern for refreshments when we needed a pick me up and curated a wonderful lunch. I would definitely recommend his services!

We just finished a WONDERFUL walking tour with Pepe. What an amazing guide. Very organized. while walking in what it seemed 40C weather, he kept the pace slow enough for me to enjoy the walk as well as fast enough for our 2 yourng girl. He made sure we walked on the shade as much as possible and made stops in the shade, for me I thought to give me time to rest, but for the rest of the group he gave stories of each monument we saw and how it fitted in Spain's history, Pepe was able to personalized our tour regarding time when to start and end, and also a great pace both with the walking and telling us the history of spain, I highly recommend Pepe for any of the tours he is an excellent tour guide. He has passion and respect for what he does, I apprecilated that. July 17, 2026. Thank you Pepe, I hope to book a tour with you when I return to Spain.

Pepe is extremely knowledgeable about Madrid and Spanish history. We would answer any questions we asked. We found his touring style a little awkward for us. He would walk in front of us, we followed, then he would choose a place to stop and present the site and his story. Most of our tours when private have been more interactive. He knew his information-just his style was not the best for me.

Outstanding tour of Madrid — one of the best we’ve had anywhere!! Pepe was so knowledgeable about history, art, architecture, local customs, etc. Couldn’t have been better. A great guy!
