Hola. Mi name is Alfonso. I am a passionate 32 years old guide from Madrid. I have been guiding for almost 7 years all over Spain and Portugal , giving different kinds of tours as both a local guide and tour leader. I have studied business and tourism and I have been professional athlete. WHY AM I GUIDING? Since I was a kid I have always loved knowing new places. I enjoy improvising within those new cities and discovering new places along the way. I am curious about everything. I consider myself to be enthusiastic, knowledgeable, good listener, deep and open minded person. I am a people person. I love getting to know new people and learning from them. I love to travel anywhere and anyway. I have lived in Germany and I have worked and studied abroad in many different locations. When I had a surgery on my hip I had to stop playing sports and start from scratch. I began thinking "what do I like and what do I do well?". My friends would always ask me things like: Where should we go for dinner? Would you come with me to the Prado Museum ? Alfonso, How do we get to this place or that? I have always been interested in history, gastronomy and art : the roots of any place culture. The way we the humans interact with the environment. When thinking about my hobbies and these facts about myself I decided that guiding could be something that could appeal to me. Luckily for me, it worked out. Being a tour-guide is a lot being like a student. I am always studying new things, preparing new activities for the tours and learning from people I meet. I started guiding in the tricky city centre of Madrid and afterwords in other cities, museums, palaces etc. In my tours I love to show the real deal of the places we visit, to have local experiences and if possible to interact with locals. I don't like to ignore controversial topics. To go often off the beaten truck. I invite you to do a tour with me , I would be more than happy showing you my city. During a tour with me, we will learn from each other and our different backgrounds. I am flexible and able to customize tours. Thank you for your time reading this. - Official Guiding License - Toledo Cathedral and Toledo Monuments License - Tourism and Business Degree No restrictions

Overview of your Madrid tour
"If Madrid had nothing else than the Prado it would be worth spending a month in every spring, if you have the money to spend a month in any European capital. But when you can have the Prado …. at the same time with El Escorial not two hours to the north and Toledo to the south, a fine road to Avila and a fine road to Segovia, …. it makes you feel badly, all questions of immortality aside, to know that you will die and never see it again'' Hemingway. -Toledo may be the richest town in central Spain from a cultural and historical point of view. -El Escorial is the best representative of the so called Spanish Golden Ages. -Segovia and Avila are two harmonious medieval towns which hosts the best preserved Roman aqueduct, outstanding Cathedrals, the European best preserved walls and a fairy tale castle. -Madrid, as the Capital of the Country doesn't need introduction. Hiring this tour you will cover all the must-see places, no more than 1 hour distance from Madrid in 2 days and a half with your local guide
