Description
In this tour, we will explore the oldest and also lesser-known part of Madrid. From the earliest remains found in the pre-Roman era, through the Andalusian medina and the Christian conquest, to the moment when the town becomes the Capital of Spain, we will take a journey through one of the most beautiful areas of the city. We will walk through its narrow and steep streets, its secluded squares, medieval churches, and stately homes that are often left out of the typical tourist routes in Madrid. We will be accompanied by such emblematic figures as Isabel the Catholic, El Cid Campeador, Muhammad I, Alfonso X the Wise, Juana la Beltraneja, or San Isidro Labrador. There will be no shortage of cultural and gastronomic recommendations.
