Hi! This is Beatriz and I welcome you to Madrid, where I was born. I was raised between Madrid and Toledo and if you love history, arts, literature, and the best of life like I do, you can't miss these cities. If you read my credentials you'll see that I was a lawyer who left the court for living my real passion: art and travel. I have worked as a Tour leader in Spain and Europe for four years so I have proven experience in this field. The last few years, I have concentrated on working as a private guide in the beautiful cities of Madrid, Toledo, and Segovia. But every time I've got the chance I guide in Andalusia. My objective is to show you the essence and magic of my country, our legacy, traditions, history, gastronomy. . . We can travel in time in the narrow alleys of Toledo or maybe watch Goya paintings in the El Prado Museum. Just tell me what interests you, and I'll make it real for you. I love my job and I transmit that to the client. My biggest objective is that you don't forget that you have to have fun ; ) I'm waiting for you in Madrid! Official Guide license of Madrid nr. 836. Official Tour Guide License Cathedral of Toledo. Degree in Law - Universidad Complutense de Madrid. I am not a driver. I can arrange for a separate car and driver on request.

Overview of your Madrid tour
Don't miss one of the world's best paintings collection and one of the reasons I'm in this job. In El Prado, besides beauty and painting, you'll discover hidden stories in masterpieces, curious historical figures, and the huge influence on later artists and even in movies. Goya, Velázquez, El Greco, Hyeronimus Bosch, Rubens and Titian among others are waiting for you. If you are interested in any special artwork, artist or topic, please contact me. After the museum, and a short break, we'll be ready to discover the old and leafy Retiro. In this must-see place in Madrid, you enjoy the lovely nature aspect of this historical garden and what it means for the "madrileños". Join me!
