Tour description

 
** LAST DAYS OF THE SEASON **


** LIMITED PLACES **


The Civil War is the closest war conflict that Spanish society has experienced and, although there is still a deep memory in the memory of many of us, it is true that the younger generations have not had, luckily, to experience that reality.

This does not mean that the past should be forgotten, and that is where MAD Experiences will take you into the harshest conflict in this country of the 20th century. XX, in one of the key battlefields of the Siege of Madrid, Moncloa and Parque del Oeste, a place that was "no man's land" and where we can still see vestiges of the horror of war.
Characters such as General Vicente Rojo, José Miaja or Buenaventura Durruti will intermingle in your lives along with Mola, Franco or José Varela.

We will come across literary figures like Hemingway , with others more anonymous but no less relevant like Kolstov or soldiers with huge strokes of luck. Machine gun nests, trenches and buildings that surround us are the remains of this tragic history that undoubtedly defined Madrid today.

MAD EXPERIENCES NEEDS YOU! GET READY!

Victor logra con su relato además de que aprendas un montón de cosas , que no te den ganas de distraerte con nada durante las más de 2 horas que “te cuenta” la historia.. de manera tan real que parece que en cualquier momento te encontrarás en medio de un tiroteo entre los bandos .. como si aún estuvieran allí! Hace un despliegue en escena realmente magnífico … lo da todo y más! Realmente se nota su pasión por la historia y la gran capacidad para transmitir tantos datos como si realmente fuéramos protagonistas con él, de esta guerra tan tríste que vivió España . No pueden perderse este paseo , se les va a pasar volando el tiempo !

Lo felicito a Victor por su profesionalismo, ya que es muy difícil ser imparcial y objetivo en en tema tal doloroso para cualquier español y además contarlo de manera sencilla y "entretenida " logrando mantener la atención durante tanto tiempo. Felicitaciones! Es una experiencia que recomendaré
