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

Make a choice of your favorite museum if it is not listed, and ask me about it. It could be the Royal Palace, or the Museum of Contemporary Art, Reina Sofía, just Thyssen-Bornemisza, or . . . you might want to go more for the history side and go to the National Archaeological Museum or the Museum of the History of Madrid. If I haven't mentioned your choice, let me know and we might as well do it, it could be Museo Cerralbo, Fundación Lázaro Galdiano, or Museo Sorolla My offer for this tour is a two hours long visit to the main highlights of these collections, in case you would like to stay longer let me know. We'll get it organized!! If there is a large party inform me before booking, and please, in any case, DON'T buy museum tickets before asking me. Each museum has a different policy for guided tours and special tickets are needed.

Susana was a wonderful guide for our tour of the Royal Palace. She kept our entire family (include teenaged children) interested and engaged, and was able to highlight important aspects of the palace, including historical elements, at a captivating pace. We would have been lost without her! We would definitely use Susana’s guide services again if we return to Madrid, and we highly recommend her!

We were lucky enough to book Susana for 3 fantastic tours! On our final tour, she took us on a tour of the stunning Royal Palace. This is a MUST DO in Madrid! If not for Susana, we probably would have missed the Royal Armory, which in itself was a incredible display of armor and weapons - and a mind boggling testament to the wealth of the royal family at the time. Susana was so knowledgeable and gave a wonderfully informative and interesting tour. She really made the Palace come to life! Highly recommend!

We toured the Prado with Susanna and had a great experience. She is very knowledgeable and tailored the tour to our preferences.

Susana is a true scholar and lover of art! We hired her for a tour of el Prado, and she kept our family of all ages interested and engaged. She handled navigating the museo like a champion, when the crowds were becoming busier. We would not have been able to see and learn what we did without her. We appreciated her infinite knowledge. The best part is her funny and feisty personality, keeping other onlookers out of our way, she means business! Thank you Susana, for a wonderful day!
