Let me introduce myself. My name is Susana and I've been guiding in Madrid, Toledo, Segovia, and Avila for over twenty years now as a full-time activity, and. . . . here I am, still on stage. I am happy to say that I have done over 500 tours only with ToursByLocals during the last 9 years. This hasn't been my only job ever, I have been teaching languages since. . . always, as this is the family business, and I got to know the tourism industry since I was very young as it was my early passion. Hotels, airlines, tour director. . . All these experiences have made me a very versatile person, which helps a lot with my actual activity. For six years I have been the Chairman of the Madrid Tourist Guide Association, which shows my compromise with and faith in this profession which I find absolutely wonderful, as it is so to be able to share with my guests, my friends, all the magnificent heritage that surrounds me. I find so much satisfaction in seeing how you are delighted with your holiday choice that it encourages me, even more, to make more and more research to share it all with you. I have fun doing what I do as a living and that is the reason why you will have fun too. Who says that museums or history are boring? Our museums in Madrid hide so many treasures that you will long to come back as soon as possible to continue getting to know them. . . with me!? That would be fantastic.

Overview of your Madrid tour

During this tour two very important painting collections will be visited, the former Royal Collection of paintings which was in the hands of the Royal Family until the late 19th century, when the National Museum was definitely opened to the public and the private collections of paintings of the Thyssen-Bornemisza family, which came to Madrid in 1992. With this "walk of art" we'll travel through the history of art in a very amazing way. Larger parties ask for conditions.

Susana Verdugo is a 5 star guide! Her knowledge of art/art history is unsurpassed; she makes the art talk to you in understandable terms while concomitantly experiencing the profundity of the work and intention of the artists; she is the best gallery guide we have ever had; you will leave her tour with a greater appreciation and knowledge of art, and an appreciation of her ability to share that knowledge with appropriate touches of humor to lighten the subject matter. We highly reccomend Susana
