"Very informative and different history tour of Madrid. Piero was an engaging unique character! He adds interactive experiences that make the tour memorable. I have a newfound respect now for the bullfighting ritual. I would never go but I appreciate the history and the culture around it. Take this tour and you won’t be disappointed!"
"We are very glad we decided to tour the Prado with Laura. The museum is overwhelming, and walking through with a knowledgeable guide who could talk through the pieces, and also their historical context, was a very valuable way to spend our time in the museum. We highly recommend choosing Laya as your guide. "

"Had an awesome time with Marianissa, she took us to multiple locations and shared her favorites. She took us different locations including a visit to the Mercado San Anton. I will never forget the tortilla. "
"Here was not only full of energy and Joy about Madrid, but he took a some of the most amazing places with some of the best food we experienced our entire time in Spain. We are so grateful for his insider knowledge and for taking us to places we never would have been to and challenged us to try things we had never tried before. It was a really fun way to spend an evening as a family and we couldn’t thank Piero enough! His love of Madrid, passion for food and historical knowledge made this extra special!!"
