Olé Amigos! I'm a professional guide, licensed tour manager born in the city of Madrid. I have 15 years of experience and I previously lived and worked in Paris, Barcelona, Berlin, Tel Aviv and San Sebastian for my food and wine career in michelin starred restaurants. I'm a chef and wine expert, so I feel passion about touring while caring for the "eating and drinking" factor. With over 1,850 private tours delivered and more than 900 traveler reviews, I am one of the most experienced guides on the ToursByLocals platform worldwide and the leading guide in Madrid. In 2025, I was honored with the ToursByLocals Golden Guide Career Award for outstanding performance. My somewhat nomadic lifestyle has given me a wide perspective of life, culture, history and the excitement of experiencing new destinations while enjoying and respecting local traditions. Apart from living in different countries and learning to adapt to different cultures, I keep traveling and I have been a tourist myself many times. I love planning my excursions by my morning cup of coffee, always hungry to find new exciting local spots and stories that enrich my insider's insight. Perhaps you have been to Spain before and you are looking for something new? From my own travelling experience I know how important is to get to the best places avoiding being treated "like a tourist" or how tricky it can get finding that unforgettable wine cellar, having the right restaurant table or sitting at an intimate Flamenco "tablao". As a local, I already know all those special places and hidden corners, typical cafés, unknown museums and specialized stores - and I will be more than happy to share my learnings with you. I will tell you plenty of curious anecdotes about where we are walking by, what are we tasting or contemplating at. During your stay, I will be the Spaniard that hosts you, your family and friends, and I will organize for you the visits tailored to your needs and at your own pace so you can enjoy the most of it. I have a small fleet of luxury vehicles and can get various quality size vehicles for different size groups.

Overview of your Madrid tour

Jewish Toledo. An UNESCO World Heritage Site, see the city at your own pace with a guide and learn about the city's rich architectural and religious history. In this day trip we will see the ancient city and its exciting palaces, synagogues, museums, churches and of course El Greco's masterpieces. What can you expect? Toledo is full of misteries and magical esoteric stories, also known as the occidental Jerusalem. Emotional and historical, one of those places deeply rooted and linked to Holy land you cannot miss. I have been raised in a jewish home and have learned Kabbalah at Rabi's Michael Laitman school in Israel. I will love to share this magical city with you. What travellers like the most about this experience is in their words: ". . . Pepe throws his heart and soul into his tours, sharing with us the history of Toledo. His special knowledge of the Jewish heritage, point out little known or overlooked artifacts that made this one of the most memorable tours . . . " I wait for you!

Pepe is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Toledo. He is very friendly and easy to understand. He also was very helpful in accommodating our needs since one in our group had walking issues necessitating use of a cane. We would recommend him wholeheartedly.
