TheOneToGo
Madrid's grandeur sits in its plazas and its golden-stone architecture, so look for a photographer who knows when the Royal Palace and Gran Via wear their best light.
Our pick
The arches of Plaza Mayor and the sweep of the Royal Palace from the Sabatini Gardens are the city's signature frames, while the bustle of Gran Via brings energy. A local photographer knows when the plazas calm down and how the late sun gilds the palace facade. They route you through Madrid's open spaces without long gaps between them. Knowing when each grand setting peaks is the difference between a flat shoot and a memorable one.
If our pick doesn't fit
Swaps the palace and grand plazas for the park's lake and gardens, a calmer backdrop with softer natural light.
Nearly twice the time on the street lets the photographer cover multiple neighborhoods, but the price reflects that.
