Old Town & Royal Palace Walking Half Day Tour

A unique and private tour for you, perfect to get a good overview of the rich historical background of Madrid and experience local life. We'll go from our monarchs ups, downs and tribulations to the changes of our emblematic Plaza Mayor through the times. Our visit starts in the Royal Palace, since it is here where Madrid was born back in the 9th century and where once a Muslim Fortress stood. It'll leave you wordless as me every time! Nowadays, the Palace stills lively since is used for state ceremonies and public receptions. At a good pace, we will explore the old town, so-known as Habsburg's Madrid, the oldest and my favourite city spot: with the famous Plaza Mayo, Old Town Hall, narrow streets and lively Madrileños. It is a perfect chance to stop for the best pictures while I share with you my knowledge about the city origins and the love for this city that adopted me 26 years ago. How? we'll visit a real market &, while having a relaxing drink as a local, I'll explain all about this magic town!
