Great choice!

The tour bus was a great choice after being tired from walking around Madrid. It was relaxing, comfortable, and the audio guide made it easy to learn about the city’s history while resting and enjoying the views. A very comfortable way to get to know the city better!

Where was the bus ?? 🧐

I booked this trip for our wedding anniversary weekend trip . We arrived at the meeting point stated on the ticket or booking . The bus was due to leave at 9pm so we arrived at 8.30 !! No sign of the bus or bus stop . We walked up and down the road where it was supposed to be and nothing at all . Asked a few bus drivers and customers waiting for other buses but they wasn’t helpful. Totally disappointed and very angry and upset, complete waste of time and money.

Not recommended

The tour lasted only 60 minutes, and the tour guide sounded like she was reading from a script. The only moment she seemed fluid and really engaged was when she asked for tips. I would have liked her to have shown that energy and enthusiasm throughout the tour.

We will address this with our tour guide to ensure a more engaging experience for future tours. We appreciate your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to show you a better time in the future.

Nice scenery, hard to hear tour guide

While the tour guide was lovely, sitting up top with her downstairs and only hearing her through a speaker located behind me I didn’t hear most of the tour. More speakers are needed upstairs. Took lots of pretty pictures and knew most of the buildings as I had done the day tour.

Operator response

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We apologize for the inconvenience and will take your suggestion for more speakers into consideration for future tours. We're glad you still enjoyed the tour and hope to see you again soon!

The full circuit ride...

The full circuit ride took us all around so we saw some amazing places. The tour guide Valentina was our host. It was hard to understand all of the English because it was so muffled on the speakers.
