Choose your experience
Madrid: Guided Walking Tour in Spanish is a two-hour guided walk through the historic centre of Madrid, led by a Spanish-speaking guide. The tour begins at Plaza de España and moves through the Madrid de los Austrias quarter, the oldest part of the city, where Habsburg-era architecture lines streets that date back to the medieval period. Stops include Plaza de Oriente, the formal garden square facing the Royal Palace, and the Madrid landmark of Plaza Mayor, the grand 17th-century arcaded square completed under Philip III in 1619.
The guide covers the legends, mysteries, and lesser-known histories attached to each site, including accounts of paranormal events and the stories behind the buildings that shaped the city. Plaza Mayor alone carries a layered past, having served as a marketplace, a bullfighting arena, and a site of public trials during the Inquisition. The tour is conducted entirely in Spanish and runs for approximately two hours on foot. Note that the route is not wheelchair accessible. Tickets cover the walking tour and the Spanish-speaking guide; food and drinks are not included. The cancellation policy applies before a set date, so check the booking terms when reserving your place.
