The experience
About this quest
Alaric Vermundo, a Visigoth guard, must smuggle the Crown of King Tius through the narrow streets of La Latina before the Romans close in. Follow a chain of secret contacts through Madrid's oldest quarter, from ancient taverns to hidden squares, and deliver the Crown to the mysterious Wolf Queen before it falls into enemy hands.
Is this for you?
Who it's for
Visitors staying near the centre who want to see La Latina's old taverns, market and quiet squares with a story to follow, rather than a tapas crawl or a free walking tour. Couples and groups of friends trail a Visigoth guard smuggling a stolen crown past the Romans, over about an hour and 2.4 km. If you want a live guide to answer your questions about the food and history, a guided tour suits you better.

Frequently asked questions
What is the crown quest in La Latina about?
You follow Alaric Vermundo, a Visigoth guard who must smuggle the Crown of King Tius through La Latina before the Romans close in. A chain of secret contacts leads you from ancient taverns to hidden squares, and you finish by delivering the Crown to the mysterious Wolf Queen.
What will I see in Madrid's Latin Quarter on this walk?
The route passes Plaza de los Carros, El Madroño, Teatro La Latina, Mercado de la Cebada, the Caños Viejos fountain, Plaza de Alamillo, the Seated Man statue, San Pedro el Viejo church, the Museo de San Isidro, and the La Chata and La Concha taverns.
Where is the old town in Madrid?
La Latina is Madrid's oldest quarter, and this walk keeps you inside it. You weave through its narrow streets past old taverns, churches and squares, including the Museo de San Isidro, which covers the origins of Madrid, before looping back to where you began.
Where does it start and how long does it take?
The walk starts and ends at Restaurante Botín, so you finish where you began. It covers about 2.4 km and takes a little over an hour at an easy pace, though time spent on puzzles or a stop in a tavern can stretch that.
Do we need to book a time, and can we pause?
No fixed time is needed. You start whenever you like on your phone, with no guide or group to meet, and one ticket covers your whole group up to the stated number of devices. You can pause at any point and pick up again later.
What is the La Latina Quarter quest story?
You step into a fictional historical mission: Visigoth guard Alaric Vermundo must move King Tius’s crown through La Latina before the Romans close in. The game uses Madrid’s oldest quarter as the route’s setting.
Is this experience self-guided?
Yes. The Questo app guides you from clue to clue, with no guide or fixed start time. You can begin when it suits you and pause along the way.
