“Tornando indietro non so se lo rifarei. Bello il quartiere Lavapiés, ma il tour in sé poco coinvolgente. Magari solo per l'organizzazione in sé.

Ride through central Madrid with a local graffiti artist, exploring Muelle’s preserved 1989 tag, Boa Mistura’s work, Pinta Malasaña murals, and community art spaces in Malasaña and Lavapiés. Bikes, helmets, locks, a map, and an English or Spanish guide are included.
“We have had the luck to have Javier as our "private" guide for this amazing family bike tour in Madrid. Our son (7 years) and us enjoyed to be shown not only the street art but also the "hidden" quarters of Madrid where you can see and fell the urban, cosmopolitan life stye of Madrid. Javier is a very friendly and experienced tour guide and the whole experience from booking, renting the bike, driving through Madrid was seamless and without any troubles. Its definitly recommendable, even with kids starting with 7 on their own bike.Read more”
