Description:

Follow a local scholar and guide through many facets of Madrid. Have aspects of Spanish culture, architecture, and cuisine explained to you by an expert on Spain.

Charming Cibeles Square serves as your starting point. Admire the iconic Plaza de Cibeles and learn the importance of the Bourbon monarchy. Continue to the Puerta del Sol, an energetic central space that buzzes with activity at all hours of the day. After learning about the major monuments there, head to Plaza Mayor—which has remained virtually unchanged since the Habsburg dynasty—and hear the stories and tragedies this plaza bears.

Strolling away from Plaza Mayor, your guide tells you about “Madrilenean” cuisine and local traditions. You finish your tour with a sampling of tapas and a jaunt down the narrow medieval streets just south of the square.
