The guide had deep knowledge of Madrid and informed us well about where to eat. He led us around to historic places and told us what happened there. Definitely we got to learn how to get around the city.

Enrique was an amazing guide. You can tell he is very passionate about Madrid and it’s history. We are so glad we took the off the beaten path tour because we got to experience Madrid the way locals do. We will definitely book with him again! He also has GREAT recommendations for things to do, places to eat (including things to try), and where to shop.

Good tour. We got what we expected. The guide was good. It's a lot of walking and the day was very hot so it was a bit and but definitely worthwhile.

Enrique was extremely knowledgeable and passionate. Took us off the beaten path. He also really cares about the local community and showing us the way life really is in Madrid. Highly recommended!

Excellent tour. Fabulous passionate knowledgeable local guide who went above and beyond to make the tour interesting. We are four oldies and we walked for 18km and loved every minute including our calamari roll at a short break. The tour was a bit expensive but worth every cent. It was nice to have some 'personal' time with the guide and not struggling to hear in a big group. Highly recommend doing this tour.

Enrique was a great guide with lots of historical information of old and new. Instead of just showing us the old buildings, he also showed us how more recently Madrid has built up and changed, on top of or around history. It was a refreshing break from more cathedrals and ancient walls. We enjoyed seeing the grittier “punk rock” area. Also some great architecture examples of various styles. He also showed us tapas and cocktails. He was engaging. It was also great that he met us at our hotel so we didn’t have to find him somewhere. And we were on a tight schedule and he was very accommodating about changing our start time to fit our schedule. Overall a worthwhile tour!

<p>It was definitely a great way to see some smaller neighborhoods and things that most tourists don't get to see! Definitely a highlight was going into the San Antonio de los Alemanes church - it's like a small version of the Sistine Chapel!! Amazing!</p>

Totalmente recomendable, de hecho lo repetimos cada vez que podemos. El guía Kike es una cascada de conocimiento que te contextualiza, explica y da vida a los personajes de la historia para su mayor comprensión. Como guías así, es normal que a la gente le apasione la historia y más si es de tu ciudad.
