Hola and welcome to Madrid! My name is Beatriz and I was born and raised in this beautiful city where I work as a licensed local guide as well as in Toledo, Avila and Segovia. After finishing my University studies in Tourism , I decided to travel and lived overseas for a while. I spent almost 9 years living and working in the UK and Australia, always within the Travel Industry where I worked in Hotels, Museums (such the British Museum or the V&A Museum in London), as a Product Manager in online travel accommodation and as a freelance tour guide in my free time. After travelling around the world, I decided it was about time to go back home and work in my daydream job: being a local Tour Guide. Since I was a child, I had a passion for Art and History, I've always been very curious, enthusiastic and a storyteller. As a very proud 'Madrilenian', I love showing my city through my eyes: the official history, the hidden gems, my favourite corners, the 'real' Madrid. Besides guiding in monuments such the Royal Palace, Prado Museum, Reina Sofia or the Habsburgs quarter I also organize and tailor gastronomic, tapas or markets tours, flamenco shows, Retiro Park walk, Letters quarter, La Latina and tours focus in Family and Children. Additionally, I also worked in the past as a Tour leader travelling throughout Spain and Portugal, so I'm happy to help you and give you tips about the rest of the Iberian peninsula best places. Madrid Official Guide Licence Nº 850. Official Tour Guide License for Toledo Cathedral and Monuments. Official Licensed guide in Avila, Segovia and El Escorial. Graduated in Tourism by University Autonoma of Madrid. ETOA Tour Leader Licence in Europe. I am a driver but I do not have a license to take customers. However, I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver. I can also drive my own vehicle and meet you in the destination.

There are many reasons to visit the monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial with a local guide: - to learn about the graves of the kings of Spain buried there; - to admire its prodigious artistic heritage, one of best international museums and one of my favourites worldwide. - To understand why it was known as the 8th Wonder of the World in its time. I'm passionate about the history of this architectonic masterpiece and the mystery evolving its construction in the 16th century. An incredible multi-functional complex building with a Basilica, a Monastery, an immense Library with more than 40. 000 documents, a Royal Palace, a Royal Pantheon and a School still operating. Located in the surrounds of the National Park Sierra de Guadarrama, the scenery is also beautiful! After the tour, join me to explore the Monastery gardens and walk around El Escorial old town
