Cities are not only defined by their historical landmarks. There are other stories, more hidden, embedded in the subconscious of its inhabitants, who sometimes draw them better than their own streets and squares. Get to know them with us on a tour that, for two hours, will show you "the B side" of the capital of Spain.
After starting in the Plaza de Pontejos we will go to the Plaza de la Provincia, from where we will discover the mysteries that the Madrid Metro hides. Later we will enter the neighborhood of La Latina, one of the oldest and that treasures more stories of the city.
On the tour of this neighborhood we will talk about the origins of the city, the crimes that devastated its streets or the strange miracles attributed to its patron saint.
The Cathedral, the Plaza de Oriente and the Convento de la Encarnación will culminate the tour. A tour in which not even the Holy Inquisition will get rid of being part of a story that will shed some light on the shadows of Madrid.

El tour fue muy ameno y entretenido. Se aprenden muchísimas cosas que no salen en los libros y llenan de misterio la historia de las calles de Madrid. Es completamente recomendable. No se hace largo, ni agotador, ni tedioso, ni nada de eso. Todo lo contrario, Carmen, nuestra guía, ha sido maravillosa, super entregada y con muchos detalles curiosísimos que contar. Desde luego, repetiríamos otras rutas y si es con Carmen mucho mejor!!

We are a family of 4. Two adult children and mom and dad. The tour guide spoke very slowly, and his English was challenging to understand. We’ve had several free tours throughout Europe now, and this is the only one we really did not enjoy much.

Hicimos el tour con Fiz y nos encantó, muy bien explicado, hizo que el tour fuera muy ameno e interesante con su manera de contarnos tanto las leyendas como información sobre Madrid. Un gallego muy majo!
Muy recomendable.
