David was great. We had a wonderful time with him. He made a big city feel much smaller and tailored the tour to our needs and was perfect.

Hi! My name is Luis David, and I was born in Madrid, the city I love. Since I was a child, I have always been interested in learning more about the Spanish capital, because I think that the history and the art of our city are amazing! That is why I decided to study the Degree in Tourism, and when I finished it, I studied the high-level Technical Degree in Tour Guide, where I learnt more about the culture from Madrid. Nowadays, I am a fully licensed professional guide, and I love my job more than anything: I can not only show my beautiful city, but also meet amazing people from all around the world. I love explaining museums such as Prado Museum (I am a big fan of Velázquez), and all the "must see" spots in Madrid… but I also enjoy showing the secret places of my city, those places that not everybody knows. Anecdotes, legends… and everything you need to know about our city, also about the gastronomy and the Tapas culture of this town! Contact me and book an unforgettable experience. See you soon! -Official Guide License in Spain -Degree of Tourist Guide (College of Tourism and Gastronomy. Madrid) -Tourism Degree (Rey Juan Carlos University, Fuenlabrada - Madrid) I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.
