Nicolas was super professional and kind . He knows his history very well well and so knowledgeable of the Spanish history !
Great storytelling and clear explanation in English! Nicholas was fantastic! Would definitely recommend going with him again
It was a vacation day in Madrid, and as a result a busy, bustling day at the Royal Palace, so our tour began a bit later than planned. But once underway, we were completely engaged. Nicholas spoke excellent English, and the audio transmitters worked perfectly, allowing all of us to hear clearly throughout the tour. The Royal Palace was stunning. We were happy that we did the tour, it was absolutely worth our time.
Wonderful tour, perfect with all the details that we wouldn’t have otherwise known. We are so glad we did this, even though it was a tight schedule.
Our guide Nico was excellent. He was communicative and helpful before we met and excellent as a guide after we met. He had great command of the subject matter and gave great context with the information he shared. We highly recommend Nico!
Nicolas was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and helpful. The palace itself is amazing, particularly the porcelain and Roccocco rooms.
