Overview

Cities are not only defined by their historical landmarks. There are other stories, more hidden, embedded in the subconscious of its inhabitants, who sometimes draw them better than their own streets and squares. Get to know them with us on a tour that, for two hours, will show you "the B side" of the capital of Spain. After starting in the Plaza de Pontejos we will go to the Plaza de la Provincia, from where we will discover the mysteries that the Madrid Metro hides. Later we will enter the neighborhood of La Latina, one of the oldest and that treasures more stories of the city. On the tour of this neighborhood we will talk about the origins of the city, the crimes that devastated its streets or the strange miracles attributed to its patron saint. The Cathedral, the Plaza de Oriente and the Convento de la Encarnación will culminate the tour. A tour in which not even the Holy Inquisition will get rid of being part of a story that will shed some light on the shadows of Madrid.

Meeting points

Our guide will be waiting near the Fountain with a blue umbrella.

Javon provided a great tour which began at Plaza Mayor and ended near the Palacio Real. He kept the pace moving quickly and his tour was informative and entertaining.

Excellent walking tour

Published on Sep, 2024

Javon is very knowledgeable of the history of Madrid and Spain in general. He gave a very good historical overview as well as some fun tips and information about the city, where to eat and what to do. There were only five of us on the tour which I really appreciated after seeing very large tour groups all around the Plaza Mayor. He is a native English speaker which made it very easy to understand and converse with him.

Excellent tour!
