Legends never die and that is Benito Pérez Galdós, a legend of Spanish literature. In this walking tour we take you to visit the main points of Madrid where the writer developed his life. As? A guide will tell you the most interesting and important aspects that took place in the capital.
You will get to know the most provincial and pious Madrid that the Canarian intellectual printed in his novels through works such as "La fontana de oro" and "Tormento". We will take you to visit the taverns of the time, where the social life of the bourgeois classes who lived off appearances took place. In addition, you will learn about the role that women played at the time, the traditional businesses and the emblematic inns.
During the 2 hours of the visit, the guide specialized in heritage and culture will take you, following the footprints left by Galdós, to visit theaters and charming streets.
