How we choose our guides in Madrid

Gaido isn't trying to list every guide or agency in Madrid. We partner with a small group of local guides from different backgrounds, each leading premium private experiences that show the authentic culture of Madrid, not a generic script.

Many guides reach out to join Gaido, and we only add the ones who meet that bar. That's why you'll find 5 guides in Madrid rather than hundreds: every one of them is someone we'd send our own friends and family to.

What are the must-do things in Madrid?

It depends on what you are into. Travelers on Gaido often save hidden gems like Royal Palace of Madrid, El Retiro Park, and El Rastro. These aren't always the most popular or touristy spots, but they're great places worth seeing that come recommended by locals. Gaido also groups Madrid tours by theme, like walking tours, city highlight tours, and off the beaten track tours, so you can match the style to your trip. You can find more restaurants, bars, shops, and hidden gems in Gaido's Travel Guide section.

How much is a private tour in Madrid?

Listed prices in Madrid currently range from $159 to $620 USD. Price depends on the tour length, your group size, and whether you customize it. What's included and excluded, like entrance fees, transportation, food, or gratuities, varies by tour, so check each tour page for its own price and full description of what you get.

Do I pay when I book a tour in Madrid?

Not when you book. Your card is saved securely and charged 7 days before the tour's start time (right away if the tour is 7 days away or less). Cancel before then and you won't be charged at all.

Are Gaido's Madrid guides actually local?

Yes. Gaido hand-picks every guide. Most were born and raised in Madrid or have guided here for years, and they average over ten years of experience. Many speak multiple languages. Your recommendations come from these locals, not from sponsored placements or AI. Meet the guides of Madrid.

How much should I tip a tour guide in Madrid?

Tipping varies by guide, route, and what you prefer. If gratuity is not included, ask your guide or confirm the local norm during booking.
