Amazing Experience

Published on Jul, 2024

Excellent tours with very knowledgeable Guides. Lydia was our guide at Retiro Park and she was very good. Her explanation of key points was amazing. Benito was our guide at the Palace and he was just as good. He explained everything in detail with a bit of humor and his presentation was amazing. Can’t recommend this tour enough.

Good way of exploring the City

Published on Mar, 2023

The trip started at one of the entrances of Retiro park. Despite getting a bit lost on the way, Lydia kindly waited for me. A leisurely hour or so exploring Retiro park. Then an hours break before reconvening in front of the opera house outside the metro station. Larger group in the afternoon. Great tour of the palace. Be aware quite a few rooms you aren’t allowed to take photos. It’s a stunning palace and grounds. Lydia was a great guide and the trip was well organised. A well earned rest followed after lots of walking!

Comprehensive Tour

Published on Nov, 2022

We chose both the Retiro garden and the Royal Palace option. There were only four tourists in the garden but 24ish in the palace. It was a long day, but having a guide helped put the history into perspective. He was knowledgeable and humorous. Excellent work, Alex. A highlight was seeing the Stradivarius violins and musical instruments. Photos not allowed in those areas, only in the entrance halls and stairways.

Great tour in Madrid

Published on Sep, 2022

David was a great tour guide, knowledgeable and personable. We started in the park and then walked to Madrid Palace. I highly recommend taking this tour.

Excellent tour. One of the best in Madrid.

Published on Jun, 2022

This was a great our. The Retiro Park tour was great, lots of good sites and excellent information about the park. The Royal Palace tour was also excellent. Our guide did a great job of explaining the history and making it come to life. Highly recommend both these tours.
