Overview
Madrid's Royal Secrets & Moorish Past - Stories, Legends & Hidden Corners is a free, pay-what-you-want walking tour from Tío Tours, listed on GuruWalk. The walk runs for 2 hours 30 minutes and leans on storytelling rather than a monument checklist, mixing palace intrigue with the older Moorish layers underneath the city.

Where The Walk Goes
The route keeps to the royal quarter and the hidden corners around it, where most of the secrets and legends are set. From there the guide works back through Madrid's Moorish past, the city that existed long before the Bourbons built their palaces. Expect stories, not a rushed tick-list of sights.
