    Don't do it!

    This company is a fraud. The description of the tour is not what it includes. It says a bus would be included in the tour - so that people with mobility issues may join. Well, the tour guide assumed everyone would be down for making this tour a walking tour as opposed to what we paid for. She kept lying about walking to the bus - and we never actually went to one until 2 hours before we were to be done. The tour started at 10:30a, we did not get on a bus until 4p and there were several handicapped people on the tour. This was NOT stated on the description of the tour. We understood that there was a marathon going on and that roads were closed, but instead of communicating this with us beforehand or even asking us the day of about changing the tour to another date that could accommodate when we paid for - they just assumed and continued to lie that we all would be okay with walking. In addition to this bad communication from this company, the tour guide had a very mean personality, as if she did not want to be bothered with our group - but had to, because it was her job. All of her mannerisms and responses were stark and mean. Lastly, when I requested a half refund for this tour because it wasn't what we got - they only refunded 1/10 of what we paid. Unacceptable.

    Response from the operator: Wow, we are very surprised with this message. It is really coming in bad faith. Before the tour, we mentioned that there was a race and there would be roadblocks. You had the chance to not do the tour and these things cannot be confirmed before the day of the tour. The vehicle was at your disposal during the duration of the tour, so you did use it but maybe not as much as usual. In any case, in an 8 hour tour, there is ALWAYS walking involved as not every location can be done by car. We also issued a refund but you cannot receive 50% as the tour was done and the driver was at your disposal. In any case, we are always available 24/7 and you never even took a minute to call us or let us know. The tour guide is a very professional tour guide but we suppose that the situation due to the marathon was a problem. Please let us know if you need anything else. We are always at disposal to assist you if you call us. We are always here to try to assist you and fix any issues that you might have.

    Extremely happy with this tour and tour guide.

    The tour guide came with vehicle and driver on time. We visited most famous attraction in Madrid The Royal Palace early in morning before it was crowded as advised by our very knowledgeable guide Elena. She gave us thorough information about past and present history of the palace. Afterwards we took a walking tour through central Madrid visiting Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayor. All throughout the tour Elena gave us amazing historical facts and figures so we can remember the visit to Madrid for a long time. We will recommend this tour and the guide to our family and friends without hesitation.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for taking time in reviewing us at Tour Travel & More. We are glad you enjoyed your tour with us in Spain's capital! Madrid is a gorgeous city with so much to offer!! This is also very important for us and future travellers, we will pass your message along to our team including our guide Elena and driver and in Madrid. If you need anything else, we are at your full disposition. Kind regards, The Tour Travel & More Team

    Private 8-hour City Tour of Madrid with driver,guide with pick up: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Madrid.

    How much does Private 8-hour City Tour of Madrid with driver,guide with pick up cost?

    +

    Prices start at $769 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Madrid usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private 8-hour City Tour of Madrid with driver,guide with pick up take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Madrid is not rushed.

    Is Private 8-hour City Tour of Madrid with driver,guide with pick up worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 44 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.7/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Madrid, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private 8-hour City Tour of Madrid with driver,guide with pick up?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private 8-hour City Tour of Madrid with driver,guide with pick up suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private 8-hour City Tour of Madrid with driver,guide with pick up?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Madrid can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Madrid and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private 8-hour City Tour of Madrid with driver,guide with pick up start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Madrid within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Madrid?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Madrid experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Madrid Essential: Historic Center, Plaza Mayor & Royal Palace, Madrid Walking Tour from Puerta del Sol to Retiro Park, Madrid Tapas & Wine Tour with Rooftop Views and Local Guide. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Madrid?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Madrid?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Private 8-hour City Tour of Madrid with driver,guide with pick up?

    +

    Included: Private tour; Transport by private vehicle with chauffeur for 8 hours; Professional guide for 8 hours; and Hotel pickup and drop-off in Madrid. Not included: Gratuities; Food and drinks; and Admission fees. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
