La actividad nos encantó. El guía Alejandro fue supermajo y nos explico muchísimas curiosidades que aún siendo madrileños no conociamos. Esta actividad estaba encuadrada dentro de un evento de teambuilding con compañeros de otros países que quedaron encantados. Translate this opinion into English.

We loved the activity. The guide Alejandro was super nice and explained to us many curiosities that even though we were from Madrid we did not know. This activity was part of a teambuilding event with colleagues from other countries who were delighted. Opinion translated. Show original.

Il walking tour con Mattías è stato molto piacevole e a misura di tutti, adulti e bambini. Mattías, dall'italiano fluente, ci ha accompagnato con passione presso i luoghi più iconici della città, unendo lo storico al dilettevole. Molto consigliato Translate this opinion into English.

La visita guidata di Madrid in lingua italiana accompagnati da Matias è stata assolutamente perfetta. Matias ci ha spiegato con competenza tante vicende storiche della Madrid e illustrato le caratteristiche architettoniche dei più importanti monumenti della città. Le due ore e mezza di tour sono trascorse davvero piacevolmente e la simpatia e gentilezza di Matias hanno reso il tutto ancora più piacevole e interessante. Certamente consigliamo a tutti questo tour a piedi accompagnati da Matias! Translate this opinion into English.

The guided tour of Madrid in Italian accompanied by Matias was absolutely perfect. Matias competently explained to us many historical events of Madrid and illustrated the architectural characteristics of the most important monuments of the city. The two and a half hours of tour passed really pleasantly and Matias's friendliness and kindness made everything even more pleasant and interesting. We certainly recommend this walking tour accompanied by Matias to everyone! Opinion translated. Show original.

Abbiamo avuto la fortuna di avere Matias come guida, una guida davvero preparata e appassionata. Ci ha raccontato le cose più importanti per poter apprezzare Madrid ma anche aneddoti particolari e divertenti. È stato davvero interessante e soprattutto indispensabile, senza le spiegazioni di Matias non avremmo apprezzato a dovere la città. Consigliatissimo Translate this opinion into English.

We were lucky enough to have Matias as a guide, a truly prepared and passionate guide. He told us the most important things to appreciate Madrid but also special and funny anecdotes. It was really interesting and above all indispensable, without Matias' explanations we would not have appreciated the city properly. Highly recommended Opinion translated. Show original.

Visite du Madrid historique avec Ruben, guide sympathique qui permet de bénéficier d'explications en français, désormais une rareté. 2h30 denses bien supportées par de jeunes enfants de 6 à 10 ans Bonne approche avant d'approfondir par des visites plus ciblées les principales curiosités de la ville.

La visita estuvo muy bien, muy divertida y pasamos un muy buen rato con Pedro (el guía). Pedro fue muy flexible, ocurrente y con mucho cono ie miento de historia. Si es cierto que (por un despiste) la visita se retrasó una hora y la espera pues nos puso algo nerviosos pensando que no iba a ocurrir. Translate this opinion into English.

The visit was very good, very funny and we had a very good time with Pedro (the guide). Pedro was very flexible, witty and with a lot of knowledge of history. If it is true that (due to an oversight) the visit was delayed an hour and the wait made us somewhat nervous thinking that it was not going to happen. Opinion translated. Show original.

Muy interesante la visita y muy buenas las explicaciones de Ofelia. Pasamos un rato estupendo. La visita estupenda, sin lugar a dudas. Pero no me gusta la política de reservas de Civitatis, porque tienes que hacer reservas de 15-20-25 personas.si vas 17 personas pues tienes que coger el grupo de 20. No me parece justo y posiblemente volvamos a hacerlo lo cogería en otro portal mas flexible. Creo que 17 personas, es un número aceptable como poder ajustar los precios. No quiero descuentos. Translate this opinion into English.

The visit was very interesting and Ofelia's explanations were very good. We had a great time. A wonderful visit, without a doubt. But I don't like the Civitatis reservation policy, because you have to make reservations for 15-20-25 people. If you go with 17 people, you have to take a group of 20. It doesn't seem fair to me and we might do it again, I would take it elsewhere more flexible portal. I think 17 people is an acceptable number as prices can be adjusted. I don't want discounts.

Contratamos dos tours por Madrid para dos grupos grandes, ya que fuimos con la empresa. Nuestros guías fueron Javier y Ofelia. Yo estuve con Javier y el tour fue espectacular. Nos encanto a todo el grupo y se nos hizo corto a pesar de las casi 3 horas de tour. Gracias Javier El otro grupo fue con Ofelia. Yo no estuve por lo que no me gusta valorarlo, pero por lo que nos han dicho estuvo bien, aunque iba muy deprisa y en algún momento no podían seguirla. Translate this opinion into English.

We hired two tours of Madrid for two large groups, since we went with the company. Our guides were Javier and Ofelia. I was with Javier and the tour was spectacular. The whole group loved it and it was short despite the almost 3 hour tour. Thank you Javier The other group went with Ofelia. I was not there so I don't like to assess it, but from what they have told us it was fine, although it was going very fast and at some point they could not follow it. Opinion translated.

Adam was amazing! He was so nice and knowledgeable. He gave us an in-depth history of not only the sites but the neighborhoods in which we walked. We had a really good sense of the neighborhoods, the history of the city, the role of Madrid in Spain’s history and the region and even the significance of individual streets and buildings. We learned about the ancient and modern history of the region and it was very enlightening. It was a great experience!

Nous étions 6, 4 adultes et 2 enfants de 10 et 6 ans. Le guide Javier était très intéressant, passionné d'histoire et de la ville de Madrid, C'était la 1ère fois que nous prenions une visite et nous referons l'expérience, nous avons appris plein de choses. A faire dès le 1er jour, ça permet de mieux se repérer par la suite et de connaître les bonnes adresses.

Our tour guide Jorge was outstanding. He gave us a much greater perspective about the culture, history and historical creation of Madrid. We enjoyed walking to important “doorways” such as the Puerto de la Sol and squares—the Plaza Mayor, and other important sites. He shared much much delightful information about the wonderful city of Madrid. I highly recommend him for private and group tours. He is very knowledgeable and engaging. His tour was a highlight in our trip to Madrid.

Abbiamo visitato Madrid con la guida Cristina: da subito si è dimostrata molto simpatica e disponibile, e ci ha guidato per il centro di Madrid raccontandoci tantissimi particolari, cenni storici e recenti che ci hanno fatto amare Madrid ancora di più, oltre al colpo di fulmine già avuto!

Aurora was perfect guide for us. We have 3 small children whose patience wasn't always there. But she custumize our tour and managed to keep them engaged and entertained. She even took us to great gellato place for a break and they appreciated that. I've never done private tours before but from now on I believe this is the way to go for our family of 5. Thanks again Aurora!

La guía se llamaba Dana, muy buena, una chica preparada, simpática y una buena narradora de historia y de historias. Se adaptó perfectamente a nuestras peticiones y se nos pasaron las dos horas y media volando. Creo que para que este tipo de experiencias salga bien es clave que te toque un buen guía y a nosotros nos pasó así. Repetiría sin dudarlo. Translate this opinion into English.

La guia nos dio muchos detalles históricos sin tener en cuenta que eran un grupo de jóvenes americanos que no sabían nada de Felipe II, II, IV, Cisneros...las continuas referencias históricas y fechas no eran lo más adecuado para ellos. Quizá sirviera para hacer un repaso para una clase de Historia pero ellos acababan de aterrizar 2 días antes. Hace poco mi hermana estuvo en uno de sus tours en Madrid y lo recuerda como "muy divertido" (con un chico sirio). Translate this opinion into English.

The guide gave us many historical details without taking into account that they were a group of young Americans who did not know anything about Felipe II, II, IV, Cisneros... the continuous historical references and dates were not the most appropriate for them. Maybe it was good for a review for a History class but they had just landed 2 days before. Recently my sister was on one of her tours in Madrid and she remembers it as "very funny" (with a Syrian boy). Opinion translated. Show original.

Comenzamos una ruta privada de 2,5 hras andando desde la Puerta de Alcalá hasta la Plaza de España. Diana nuestra guía era súper agradable y nos fue comentando cosas muy curiosas que algunos de los que íbamos siendo de Madrid no conocíamos. La verdad que fue muy ameno y se hizo hasta corto. Muy recomendable! Translate this opinion into English.
