Here's what they have to say
Prado Museum Madrid
We skipped an endless queue and the guide made the visit far more enjoyable than going alone.
Santiago Bernabéu Stadium
A really good visit even if you're not a football fanatic, the access to the changing room and players' tunnel is well worth it. The trophy museum is impressive.
Madrid Food Tour
A great discovery of specialities we'd never have tried on our own, and the guide knew the neighbourhoods we walked through really well.

Whether you live in the city or fancy a getaway, Madrid always has something new to offer. Between royal palaces, world-class museums and a nightlife that doesn't know the meaning of a curfew, the capital has plans for a spare afternoon, a whole weekend, or a full holiday.
Even if you already know them by sight, these key spots in the city are always worth another visit. From Spain's kilometre zero to the capital's most photographed sunset, these are places that never lose their appeal, whether you're showing them to a visitor or rediscovering them yourself.
Puerta del Sol is Madrid's nerve centre and the point from which every road distance in Spain is measured, marked by a plaque on the ground that millions of people step on each year without giving it a second glance.
It's also home to the famous clock on the Real Casa de Correos, star of the New Year's Eve chimes, and the statue of the Bear and the Strawberry Tree, the city's official symbol.
Built in the 17th century under the reign of Philip III, whose equestrian statue presides over the square, Plaza Mayor has hosted markets, bullfights and even trials by the Inquisition throughout its history.
Today it's one of Madrid's most popular meeting points, ringed by arcades, terraces and buildings with painted façades that change their motifs from time to time.
With more than 3,000 rooms, the Royal Palace of Madrid is the largest official residence in Western Europe, although Spain's royal family doesn't actually live there — it's only used for state events and official ceremonies.
Its façade, the Sabatini Gardens and the Royal Armoury, home to one of the world's most important collections of historic armour, make this one of the most visited monumental sites in the capital.
A former royal garden turned public park in the 19th century, Retiro is Madrid's great green lung, spanning more than 125 hectares that include the Great Pond, the Crystal Palace and gardens of every kind.
Rowing on the pond, checking out an exhibition at the Crystal Palace, or simply getting lost along its tree-lined avenues are classic plans that never disappoint, at any time of year.
Opened in the early 20th century, Gran Vía is known as "Madrid's Broadway" for its concentration of theatres, cinemas and neon lights, as well as being one of the city's main shopping streets.
Its architecture, blending historicist buildings with the first American-style skyscrapers built in Spain, makes it a fascinating walk both by day and by night.
This 2nd-century-BC Egyptian temple was gifted to Spain by the Egyptian government in gratitude for the technical support provided during the construction of the Aswan Dam, and moved stone by stone to Madrid in 1968.
Set in a park with privileged views, it's a favourite spot for both locals and visitors to watch the sunset, with the temple reflected in an artificial pond.
This iron-and-glass market, opened in 1916, is one of the few food markets from that era still standing in Madrid, now turned into a go-to food destination right in the historic centre.
Its tapas, wine and gourmet stalls make it a perfect plan for a quick bite while strolling through the Madrid de los Austrias district, though it's best to go outside peak hours to avoid the crowds.
Overlooked by the Cibeles Fountain, one of Madrid's most recognisable symbols, this square marks the traditional meeting point for Real Madrid's title celebrations.
The Cibeles Palace, once the headquarters of the postal service and now Madrid's City Hall, has a panoramic viewpoint in its tower, one of the lesser-known but most complete views over the city centre.
Funbooker hand-picks experiences for people who already know the city and want something different for the weekend, or simply want to surprise a visitor. Ideas for rediscovering Madrid from another angle.
Experience the passion of live flamenco at one of the city's most renowned tablaos, where dancers and guitarists put on a show full of emotion and Andalusian tradition right in the heart of Madrid.
It's a wonderful way to enjoy a different kind of night in the capital, whether as a couple, with friends, or to surprise a visitor.
Explore the city with a local food-loving guide, discovering bars and restaurants chosen for their quality and authenticity, many of them little-known even to Madrid residents.
You'll taste classic Madrid specialities while learning fun facts about the neighbourhoods you pass through, with same-day booking often available.
The Prado Museum houses one of the world's largest collections of European painting, with works by Velázquez, Goya and Hieronymus Bosch all gathered under one 18th-century roof.
The skip-the-line ticket lets you head straight into the galleries, making the most of your visit to one of Spain's most-visited museums.
The Reina Sofía Museum is the leading reference for 20th-century Spanish art, with Picasso's Guernica as its star piece, alongside works by Dalí, Miró and other major names in contemporary art.
The guided tour helps you understand the historical context behind the most important works, with skip-the-line access to make the most of your time.
Explore the inner workings of Real Madrid's stadium, from the changing rooms to the players' tunnel, along with the club museum and its cups and trophies that have made European football history.
A must-visit for football fans, with access to areas usually reserved for players and press on match days.
Fly over the outskirts of Madrid aboard a hot air balloon, enjoying panoramic views that are simply impossible to get from the ground, at sunrise, when wind conditions are most stable.
It's a peaceful yet truly unique experience, perfect for a special occasion or simply to try something different in the Madrid region.
This full-day excursion combines a visit to the famous windmills that inspired Cervantes with a tour of Toledo's historic centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It's the perfect plan for anyone with a free day who wants to get out of Madrid without the hassle of organising transport, with a guide included throughout.
This museum brings together one of the largest collections of authorised reproductions of street artist Banksy's work, with pieces spanning his entire career, from his early days in Bristol to his most recent interventions.
A great visit for lovers of street art and social commentary, with a format that's far more dynamic than a traditional museum.
