“Nice and relaxing tour!”
His guiding was fun and interesting, his car was clean and comfortable. He took us to the places where we couldn’t have visited if we’d walked around on our own. We made the most of our time there. Thank you, Oscar.

“Wonderful unknown Medieval Madrid by Jos?”
Dear José, thank you so much for this tour. My friends and I have been delighted with the tour and your interesting and amenable explanations. We had been to Madrid in the past and visited other more known sites like Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol, even walked through some of the streets in today’s visit but were completely unaware of the rich history and legends hidden in buildings and streets. What a wonderful time travel from the foundation of the city to the fifteenth century and beyond. And so many artists, regular folks and royalty Interplaying. I am definitely talk to my friends about Las Vistillas, San Isidro, The Moorish and Christian walls and recommend you as their guide when they visit Madrid. We took plenty of pictures but would like to see yours as well. Best wishes and hope to engage with you on our next trip to Madrid.

“A wonderful ly informative and fun preparation to appreciate Guernica!”
In just two hours Leire managed to use key pieces of art and here encyclopedic knowledge of the modern art movement to prepare us to view Picasso's Guernica thoughtfully. Having a better understanding of the movements of cubism, and surrealism helped place the work and its style in context. She also took time to introduce us to some lesser known works that were cutting edge for their time by artists who are just beginning to be more deeply studied. All 5 of us came to the tour with different backgrounds and she made each person feel appreciated for their perspective. I highly recommend Leire as a guide - it made the whole experience richer and we learned so much.
