Join a journey through the slave history of Madrid. The trace of this "business" can still be seen in numerous places in the Spanish capital, where enslaved people influenced the configuration of the city as we know it, past and present.

Un recorrido indispensable
Kwame es un guía excelente, no sólo sabe un montón, si no que también presenta la información de una manera digerible y entretenida. Esta actividad es indispensable para cualquier turista y habitante de la ciudad porque cultiva una mirada increíblemente necesaria en nuestra sociedad contemporánea. El recorrido no es muy largo, así que no tengáis miedo a tener que caminar mucho, y discurre por partes muy icónicas de Madrid, las cuales aprenderéis a ver críticamente. La parte dos la haremos en nuestra próxima visita a Madrid, y esta vez llevaremos una libretita para poder seguir edificándonos post Kwame.

This tour is a MUST for all visitors to Madrid
Informed, thoughtful and interesting, Kwame Ondo was an outstanding guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and shared information that is right before us though hidden in common knowledge and sources. Kwame provided information about history, architecture, art, politics, economics, the social context and more. This is a do-not-miss experience.

Black History Truths
Kwame was very knowledgeable about Madrid Black History that we otherwise would never have discovered. Worth the time and information.

GREAT HISTORICAL TOUR!
Thank you Kwame for a opening our eyes to the other side of Spain! I knew there was a different perspective. Having visited sites in Barcelona and Sevilla, my mission was to get some of the real history of Spain during the early centuries. When I visited Granada and the Alhambra, our tour guide briefly mentioned that a painting located on one of the ceilings was done to show the figures with blond hair and blue eyes! What? When I asked questions about it, her answer was brief (almost no answer). Your tour has awakened my senses to study more about the Muslim/Black history of this country! I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to know the real Spain! Addison
