Tours
Medieval Madrid
Join me in a trip into the core of Madrid, full of myths concerning to the main figures of our history , highlighting the Middle Age in my hometown. Madrid begins as Muslim and continues as a Christian city
Madrid of the Habsburg
Madrid became the capital of Spain in the 16th century. This happened while the Spanish Empire was reaching its largest dimension. This was a kingdom where German, Spanish and Portuguese territories were part of one single empire. At the same time, Spanish culture reached its utmost splendor, an era called “El Siglo de Oro” (The Golden Century), that in fact spread along not just one century but two, the 16th and 17 th centuries.
The Little Manhattan
Walking by "Paseo de la Castellana" is synonym of " Little Manhattan". In this tour you will discover the highest buildings of my city. If you are a passionate lover of skyscrapers and modern architecture this is your tour.
Quinta de la Fuente del Berro Park
Most of locals in Madrid love to spend their free time in our green areas. I would like to introduce you a park called " Quinta de la Fuente del Berro" , a garden which is a little bit retired from the main touristic spots of my city, but that is worth to be seen.

“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.
