About this experience
Want to learn to see and feel Madrid like a local - madrileño? I will explain how to catch its non-touristic mood and see the living soul of the city behind the stone facades of buildings. We will walk through central streets and secret places, talk about outstanding personalities, and immerse ourselves in the authentic color of the Spanish capital.
What to Expect
Madrid through the eyes of locals
We will walk with you along one of the main tourist routes from the Royal Palace to Puerta del Sol square. Madrid Arabic and medieval, the city of the Habsburgs, Bourbons, and Cervantes, as well as typical Madrid "castizo" corners of the capital and non-touristy places will be revealed to you in the interpretation of a historian and connoisseur of the city. Cheerfully and enthusiastically, we will talk about everything in moderation: historical facts, architectural styles, and famous Madrid characters. And, of course, we will delve into the mystique of urban legends and superstitions. I will tell you about "Madrid cats", a monument to the devil, living heads, haunted houses, and much more...
Folkloric Atmosphere
Our tour will also include a theatrical musical element! On one of the picturesque squares of Madrid, transforming into a typical Madrid townswoman "chulapa", your singing guide will perform a famous song, which has become one of the symbols of the city! Touristic and non-touristic places of Madrid will appear unexpectedly before you, just as we know and love them - madrileños.
