Half-Day Soulful Madrid Private Guided Tour

“Soulful Madrid” is a very special tour because it allows you to get to know both the old town of Madrid and get to understand the roots of the capital, as well as to get to know the Modern areas of the XX-XXI centuries in a fun, atypical way and full of local anecdotes. Moreover, my guests get a free PDF full of the best bars, restaurants of Madrid, so they can easily avoid typical touristic places and enjoy authentic gastronomy of the Spanish capital.

The Square of the goddess Cibeles is one of the most important in the city. There we discovered the Palace of Cibeles and I tell you its history and secrets. We don’t usually come in but if you want, it’s possible. In addition, tourists know the Cibeles fountain, very significant for Real Madrid fans.

The Bank of Spain is the main bank of Madrid and Spain that starred in the famous series “La casa de papel”. We discover its exterior.

The Cervantes Institute is a Spanish public organization whose two main objectives are the promotion and teaching of the Spanish language, and the dissemination of the culture of Spain, Latin America and Latin Africa. It takes its name from the writer Miguel de Cervantes. We discover its exterior.

The Gran Vía is one of the main streets of the Spanish city of Madrid. It is an important landmark in the city since its construction at the beginning of the twentieth century. Gran Via is a significant commercial, tourist and leisure point of view.

Madrid hosts a fantastic luxury hotel “Four Seasons” that we also visit. We discover its exterior but we can also enter the hotel to have a coffee in the lobby.

Next to the “Four Seasons” is the largest and most important casino in the country.

The Puerta del Sol (The Sun gates) is the city center of Madrid. It has been home to the so-called kilometer zero of the country’s radial roads since 1950. The oldest building at Puerta del Sol is the Casa de Correos (The Post Office) and it has the tower clock that was built and donated in the nineteenth century by José Rodríguez de Losada, and whose chimes of 12 o’clock at night on December 31 mark the traditional taking of the twelve grapes to the vast majority of Spaniards. We see all the curious parts of the square.

The Plaza Mayor of Madrid (The Main City Square) is the most mysterious and authentic in the city. There I tell many stories and legends of the site, the secrets of the Spanish kings and queens.

The oldest market in Madrid where we usually have a drink and get to know the local gastronomy.

Here we see the oldest the House and Tower of Los Lujanes (XV century), built in Gothic-Mudejar style, which is located on the eastern side of the square. It is followed in antiquity by the Casa de Cisneros (The House of the Cisneros, sixteenth century), a Plateresque palace that closes the southern part of the enclosure, and the Casa de la Villa (The House of the Villa, seventeenth century), in Baroque style, one of the headquarters of the City Council of Madrid, located in the western area of the square.

The Royal Palace of Madrid is the official residence of the head of State, the King of Spain; however, the current kings do not live in it, but in the Zarzuela Palace, so it is used for State ceremonies and solemn acts. It is also a museum that can be visited. The normal entrance costs 12 euros.

It is a cathedral of Catholic worship, dedicated to the Virgin Mary under the invocation of the Almudena, and episcopal see of Madrid. In addition, you can visit it and enjoy the best views of the old town and the Royal Palace. The normal entrance costs 7 euros.

The Plaza de España is a large landscaped space in the city of Madrid located in the Argüelles neighborhood, at the southeastern end of the Moncloa-Aravaca district. In its center there is a monumental fountain dedicated to Miguel de Cervantes. It acts as a continuation axis linking the Gran Vía with the Princess Street. There I tell about Don Miguel de Cervantes and his most legendary work “Don Quixote”. It is a very important part of the Spanish culture.

It is the best rooftop in Madrid that I always recommend visiting during the first arrival in Madrid because it is the only place that allows you to see all of Madrid, not just one part as it always happens with the others. From time to time I go up with my visitors but you can also do it alone if you want. On weekdays until 17:00 the entrance costs 5 euros and from 17:00 and on weekends – 10 euros.
