Overview

Get to know the city through the eyes of a passionate local. With no set itinerary, you can customize the tour or leave it up to the local for an insightful introduction to the city. Make travel about the people you meet not just the places you see. With our walking tours, you’ll skip the mundane historical tours and discover the city through a local’s eyes. Experience a tour that will transform the way you travel to make it as much about the people you meet, as it is the places you see. Our local guides (Lokafyers) are passionate about their city and eager to share their knowledge and perspective. Since Lokafyers are not professional guides and tour occasionally, they provide an experience that’s authentic and personal, like a friend showing you around their city. By the end of the tour, you'll feel comfortable navigating the city and confident that you have all the information you need to make the most of your stay.

The tour coordinator gave us the wrong address and pin for the meeting point. We spent in unnecessary taxi fee to get to the given meeting point which was incorrect. After communicating with the tour guide, he went to pick us up and then started the tour. Ricardo, the guide, was very amicable and accommodating. I recommend Ricardo as a guide but the company made us waste time and money.

Our tour guide first said she was running a few minutes late which we said was fine. However, when we went to the location we did not find her. We called her at her cell number that was given to us and she never answered. Then we received an email that she could not find us even though we were right at the location given and described our clothing and she said she was cancelling our tour as she had other tours to do during the day. We have requested a refund and are still waiting to receive it. We also had to then find another tour.

We booked for a 3 hour tour and met our guide Fernand at the appointed time. He was very professional and informative in the course of our outing, charting a course through the city's history from its inception to modern times with a scattering of personal anecdotes and whimsical stories in between. Fernand was very engaging, quite accomplished (he teaches and speaks several languages) and successfully communicated his passion and appreciation for Madrid in the all-too-short period we spent with him. You got the sense that he could easily provide another three hours of information would the tour have been extended for that time. A recommended activity for a first-time or even a multi-time visitor to Madrid.

This is a great way to see Madrid. The operator schedules you with a Local, who contacts you to figure out what you want to see or do during the six hour period of time scheduled. For myself, I wanted an orientation to Madrid and points of interest that I could come back and investigate further. My local guide and I explored several parts of Madrid and I was shown how to navigate public transport in the city. The tour was overall exactly what I wanted with the added benefit of not feeling like I spent all day with a guide but with a friend who lived locally.

Guide sympathique et avec beaucoup d’entregent! Beaucoup de connaissances générale; nous a amené a des endroits inusité et semble aimé beaucoup son travail! Pourrais peut-être approfondir ses connaissances en histoire ; personnage important représenté sur les statue de la ville; ce qu’ils ont fait etc
