Maikel showed us around Centro and Chamberí. We learned of the causes, actions, and impact of the Spanish Civil War on society with the help of historical landmarks and visual aides. This tour is essential for understanding fascists, anarchists, and socialists during the conflict. I highly recommend.

This tour was a great walking tour that helped us to learn a little about the history of Spain during the Civil War and to see some of the places those events happened. It also helped us to get to know Madrid a little better.
