Unique things to do in Madrid
Book unforgettable activities hosted by locals on Airbnb.
Travel like a local
Madrid is a welcoming city that feels more as if you’re traveling from village to village than across a busy metropolis. It’s a place where you drink the vermouth, typically served with a splash of sparkling water and an orange wedge, and get lost in conversation with locals. Enjoy the tapas, see the art, and take it all in: there are just 5 subway stops in the entire city. Go beyond traditional tours and activities for a local’s perspective of Madrid with Airbnb Experiences.

⭐️The Original Madrid Tapas Crawl⭐️
I offer you an Indoors real local tapas crawling journey, based on traditional dishes. Over 3 hours we’ll be visiting 4 spots. A market cuisine restaurant, a well-kwown ice-cold beer bar for locals, a new slow food tavern, and a one-century old bodega in a high quality and non-touristy tapas area, which madrileños love. You'll be able to see people from Madrid going out for real tapas. And you'll feel like one of us.
All the included spots are family-owned bussines, and I'm lucky to know the owners (David, Jesús, José and Paco) since many years ago. I grew up in this fantastic district called Chamberí and I have been trying their many bars and dishes thoughout my life, so I know them... in detail!
This is also a great experience for teams, groups and team-building!!!!
There's a lot of food on our tour (10-12 tapas servings), we recommend you to make a light lunch!

Welcome to Madrid Walking Tour

This English language tour starts close to the Plaza Mayor and ends at the glorious Royal Palace. We're always a friendly group of travellers led by a historian. No microphones, crowds or wikipedia style facts but a fun, personalised adventure.
We'll stroll down charming streets to see the sights of the oldest part of town to uncover the stories of Madrid and discover the soul of a city that stands in the middle of nowhere, miles from its neighbours.
We'll explore the history that shaped the city, find out some local food and drink traditions, and even solve a couple of mysteries. I'll give you heaps of recommendations to ensure you can confidently eat, drink and live the city like a local whilst supporting the small businesses that keep Madrid such a vibrant, homely city.

This is the city that governed more than half of America and large areas of the world, produced some of the best artists and writers of all time but also struggled with crime, a Napoleon invasion and a Civil War.

My goal is that at the end of the tour you will not only see some of the most beautiful and meaningful sites and also less well known great spots, but also understand their deep meaning and how modern Madrid is the result of a series of unexpected events, conquests, successes, catastrophes and contradictions that create a unique urbanism, heritage and culture with great impact in Western culture.

Your guide to Madrid
What do locals do in Madrid?
The true joy here is in the day-to-day, where you can stop and chat with neighbors on your way back from the market, or linger over tapas or dinner. The art scene is big here, and comes in many shapes and forms, from a morning spent in Museo del Prado to a poetry reading at a cafe in the evening. Barrio de las Letras, or the Literary Quarter, near the historic center, is abuzz with activity most of the day, where you can enjoy terrace bars and walkable alleyways. It’s also where many locals go out at night.
