Fun and informative - Paula was our guide and luckily for us the group was small which is our preference. Paula ‘s knowledge was impressive . She was very generous with tips about where to eat and shop and what was a speciality of a particular business. We were the oldest in the group and everyone was so kind for us not to be rushed. Wonderful first day in Madrid

11AM Free Walking Tour with Paula - Paula was our amazing tour guide for this 2 hour walking tour. We booked it through DiscoverWalks, but it was run by MADride. Because it was a free tour (paid by tips at the end), I had very low expectations. I was very wrong because this tour blew us away. Paula was super fun and had all kinds of details at every corner. She was the best tour guide we had in all of Spain (and we had a bunch this trip). She accommodated a few requests like stopping to grab a coffee and helped us with the cookies at the convent. She kept our 3 teens engaged and interested the whole time. An unexpected bonus was that she gave us a bunch of food recs at the end. We used 3 of them and she was spot on with these good places. I'm not sure how you request Paula, but if you can, you should!

Great day in Madrid! - We booked a city tour with Madride as part of an business offsite. Our tour guide Paula was amazing. She was very patient, knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. We loved her quirky personality. Overall, it was a great decision to book with Madride. It was very professional from beginning to the end.

The tour covered all the highlights. That’s about all I can say. - The tour covered the highlights. Which is all I can say. Our guide was a sweet young girl but her knowledge and enthusiasm was basic. She was an American student who has been in Madrid for 2 years. As I said we saw the basic areas as outlined in the tour. But her knowledge and enthusiasm was basic to say the least. We have been traveling for 2 weeks and this was our 6th tour and unfortunately it was our least favorite.
