This was a fantastic tour! Anna is an amazing tour guide: super engaging and very knowledgeable. She was easy to hear and understand; her English is excellent. They kept an eye out for everyone on the tour. They also made sure we weren’t districting or disruptive to the local community. Also we loved the emphasis on sustainable and responsible tourism. I highly recommend this tour.

We enjoyed the tour a lot! It was very interesting and Mario was very informed and competent. One thing to note: the tour will not be canceled because of rain. As rain was forecasted for the day of our tour, we tried to rescheduled, which was complicated, confusing and in the end didn’t work at all… Just to keep in mind when you book.

This was our first tour in Madrid. We loved it. Hector was a great guide and was very knowledgeable about Madrid’s street art (being an artist himself). He was also knowledgeable about the history of cultures represented in the art we saw. It was great to see Hector’s own art although mostly he took us to other artworks. We can highly recommend this tour!!!
