STROLL IN PUERTA DEL SOL AND PLAZA MAYOR MADRID NEIGHBORHOOD

Highlights

Explore Madrid’s Hidden History on a Private Walking Tour of Habsburg Madrid

Uncover the fascinating layers of Habsburg Madrid on a private walking tour led by Madrid Tourist Guides director, licensed guide, and historian, Irina Karasenko. This exclusive stroll takes you deep into the heart of Downtown Madrid, visiting two of its most iconic landmarks—Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol—to explore the rich architectural, social, and cultural history that has shaped the capital of Spain.

On this journey through Madrid’s Habsburg dynasty era, Irina shares her expertise in uncovering the details that most miss. Learn how to identify aristocratic gates, admire exquisite Baroque church altars, and explore hidden courtyards and alleys—places tourists rarely see. Along the way, you’ll dive into the lesser-known stories of Madrid neighborhoods and the city’s “floating population”—a mix of transitory immigrants and pretenders who left a lasting impact on the capital of Spain.

But this Madrid private tour goes beyond the surface, revealing the city’s darker history. Walk the streets where Republican repression took place and stand in the spots that witnessed the Big Civil War in Spain (1936-1939), as well as the onset of General Franco’s dictatorship. Drawing from survivor testimonies and trusted historical sources, Irina offers a nuanced perspective on both sides, shedding light on how the repression during and after the war shaped modern Madrid.

Savor Madrid’s Authentic Flavors Along the Way

Of course, no Madrid experience is complete without tasting the local flavors. During this private walk, we’ll pause at a beloved neighborhood bar to enjoy a traditional caña (small beer) and a pincho de tortilla—a classic, authentic taste of Madrid that adds flavor to your journey through its history and culture.
