Free Tour of ghostly Madrid

Hello everyone! I'm Rubén, official tour guide and guru of Madrid;), I'm 28 years old, I like to be called Rubens, I consider myself a "cat" (native of Madrid). I also collaborate with friends and family who help me on a timely basis with reservations. I have a degree in tourism and halfway through my history degree and at the moment I'm self-employed. I started to fall in love with the profession in 2019 thanks, in part, to my friend Aurora, but from 2020 onwards I worked with arkeotour which is a company that also helped me a lot, and then in 2021 I started doing the tours on my own and trying. You must keep in mind that Madzguía has only been active for a short time and many times the minimum number of necessary attendees is not reached, starting, as you well know, is not easy at all. I'm a fun guy, I consider myself close to people and I love exchanging opinions with travelers, since they can bring you experiences without having traveled outside of Madrid. I have travelled a bit around Europe and that has helped me to love this job, because in every corner there is always a story to tell and I think Madrid is a perfect city to teach all kinds of tours. It is a city full of life where everyone feels at home, for me it is one of the best cities in Spain and one of the best in the world. I have experience as a local guide, but I am very passionate about my job and I like to teach and explain events, for me it is the ideal job. That is why I think being able to work in my own city doing something I like as a local guide is a privilege.

Tour description

This tour begins at the statue of Philip IV, and winds through the most charming streets of the old town of Madrid de Los Austrias; We will pass through mysterious squares such as the Plaza de Ramales where a famous painter was buried, but it is not known where his tomb is exactly, did you know?
We will cross legendary streets that hide dark mysteries like Hell Alley.
We will see palaces such as that of the Marquis of Cañete, where I will explain the ghost that hides beneath its walls.

We will explore the dark stories of Calle Mayor and Plaza Mayor, some of the city's mythical characters ... and much more, since Plaza Mayor is home to the largest number of ghosts per square metre in the city.

We will continue through the old court prison and its surrounding streets that hide disturbing stories and legends.

Please do not book if you are less than 6 people as I cannot guarantee the tour will take place.


At least 6 people are required for the tour to run.


It is important to make clear that this is a tour of legends, real stories and tales about ghosts or alluding to them, fear is mixed with intrigue, but also with fun.

And we will end up in Plaza de Santa Ana
