What's it about?
Old Madrid, on foot
This is our essential tour: the most indispensable if you're visiting for the first time. We depart from the Puerta del Sol, at Kilometer Zero, and we tour the historic center through the Austrias neighborhood.
Along the way you will see the Plaza Mayor, the Almudena Cathedral and the Royal Palace, ...among other places. But what will stay with you are the stories: the city told by people who live here and continue to discover it.
We stroll through charming streets, stopping along the way, and there's time to ask questions. It's not a list of monuments: it's a walk with conversation.
