Isabel II was a peculiar queen who ruled Spain from 1833 to 1868, don't you want to hear some stories about her?
The heart of the Spanish Monarchy has a lot of significant stories behind it walls.
Of course, we couldn't skip this... The only different point is that we are going to have the best possible view of the Cathedral.
This is one of the oldest churches in Madrid... And Saint Nicholas is someone you know.
This is the Army's Cathedral, its square has story about murder, kings and queens.
This is one of the best place to contemplate how Madrid and Spain's architecture has been changing though time since the 15th Century.
This has been everything in Madrid's history: the theatre, the marketplace... Even the bullring!
Remember when there was no facebook? Well, this was the "wall" of the 15th Century.

Booked the tour the night before and showed up the next morning. Was pleasantly surprised to find out that our party of 2 were the only people in the group. Got a very personalized tour and our guide was the best ever. She took her time explaining all the sites and even gave her recommendations of the best places to eat at. Overall great experience and would highly recommend to anyone looking to book.

We had a wonderful tour with Stefi on 25.02.25, she made contact the day before and on the day she was very informative, attentive and spoke excellent English. The tour was well paced and covered Madrid’s history and sites really well. Stefi gave us plenty of good recommendations for food and drink which we used. Cannot rate her highly enough, excellent value for money.
That's our Stefania! Dr. Strange strikes again! Thank you very much, Ben, we are glad you liked the walking tour so much. Come back soon!
