Jamie, my tour guide, gave me the most wonderful and informative intro to Madrid during our walking tour. In addition to the basic history and geography of Madrid, he shared interesting local tales and pointed out good restaurants and tapas bars. I’m a big believer in walking tours as the best way to get to know a new city and Jamie gives one of the best that I have ever had. Highly recommend.
