Enrique is a wonderful guide. He loves Madrid and the tour will orient you to the city. Enrique will energize you, which is a skill you will thank him for when you're walking a lot. We took the walking tour of Madrid, and loved learning history and culture. But apart from that you'll have a good time and we loved how the tour includes a beer and lunch. We skipped the other tour company's tapas tours. Enrique is a great tour guide and the restaurant we had lunch at was great. He even mapped out good places for tapas so we could go on our own, but we wished we had more time we'd have taken another tour with him. If you've never taken a private tour, now is the time to try one in Madrid. Group tours are not for us, and a couple of group tours that we took during our trip were almost a compete waste of time and they weren't even inexpensive. I would recommend MadSnail and Enrique if you want to see and taste Madrid, the experience is priceless. Gracias Enrique.
