¡Hola! I'm a 38 year old Belgian historian living in Madrid. I came here for love and on top of that I ended up adoring my new city. I am a very social person so I wanted to share my love for the city with other people. I like cultural activities as going to the movies, theatre and visiting museums, I practice a lot of sports (I love snowboarding, surfing, cycling and triathlon) and I have a passion for languages, books and music. After my Master Studies in History, I started working in development work. I managed projects in Philippines, South Africa and Burundi. My first contact with the tourism business was when I decided to combine my passion for snowboarding with my passion for people. So I became a guide for tour operators in the French Alpes for two winter seasons. Later, I also lived in Istanbul where I worked as a tour guide for a biking company. When I arrived in Madrid and I loved the city so much, I decided to continue my work as a city guide. I adore showing people around and telling stories about my precious hometown so much that my friends even call me Guide Madrid Caroline. I would also love to show you around this wonderful city. I can guide you to the best museums, historical buildings, parks, scenic points or nice places and streets. I assure you a unique and authentic experience off the beaten path and into the hidden treasures and secrets of the city. I can be flexible with your agenda and fulfill any specific interests you may have. Let me know your preferences and schedule and I will come up with an itinerary that suits your requirements and personal profile. With me, you and Madrid will fall in love at first sight! Looking forward to meet you soon, Caroline - Master's Degree in History - Official licensed guide - Bachelor Degree in Nursing - Emergency Medical Responder (10 years of experience as a lifeguard, firefighter and emergency nurse)

Overview of your Madrid tour

Always thought flamenco was only typical for Andalusia, the south of Spain? Well, let me proof you the contrary and let me introduce you to one of the most wonderful flamenco sceneries, in Madrid! Flamenco is much more than singing, playing the guitar and dancing. It is an art form with deep historical roots and mysterious traditions. During this tour I'll explain you the history, the culture and the art of flamenco by walking through Madrids flamenco neighborhood. We'll visit Madrids most famous flamenco dance school, see a flamenco artisan shop and have a drink at a very local bar. After all this in-depth immersion in the flamenco culture, we'll experience the art ourself and we will attend a show in the oldest tablao (flamenco bar) in town where we'll see world-class flamenco guitarists, singers and dancers performing. If you truly want to experience flamenco in all of its aspects, you will definitely enjoy this tour!

Caroline guided us through a charming flamenco adventure for my wife and me and our two granddaughters (ages 10 and 11). She began with a walking tour of the neighborhoods while describing the cultures and history that created flamenco. Caroline kept the girls engaged and encouraged questions. We learned about the music and training behind the performances before watching a live show. Caroline had selected excellent seats for us and continued to explain subtle features of the dance during breaks in the performance. It was a great experience and fun for all of us. Would highly recommend for everyone.

I appreciate that Caroline checked in via email when we arrived in Madrid. With our tour, she was prompt and a comfortable companion. We started with light refreshment in the local neighborhood while she explained our evening’s activity. Then, she led us to a dance school’s halls as well as shops for flamenco shoes and instruments. Lastly, we had excellent seats for the performance at Tablao Villa Rosa with a glass of sangria. It was an exceptional cultural experience for my 67th birthday. A bonus: She recommended Maty where my husband purchased better ballroom dance shoes than he purchased in the USA.

Caroline was an excellent tour guide. Through her we learned so much about the history, and art of Flamenco dancing. Caroline was a delight to spend time with and she made our tour lots of fun. Thank you Caroline!

Caroline was very friendly and very knowledgeable. She walked us around the Flamenco neighborhood, even giving us a tour of an actual Flamenco school. The Flamenco show she booked for our group of 8 was an amazing way to end the night. Every dancer was so intense and full of energy. The musicians were equally as talented, too. I would highly recommend Caroline to any group interested in Flamenco.
