Hola and Hello! My name is Georgi and I want to welcome you to Spain! "Balanced"; "Energetic"; "Passionate"; "Encyclopaedic"; "Open"; "Adventurous"; or "Traveller", are the 'pieces' I am made from. I love curiosities, history and, above all, making people smile. Why? Because I lost my father when I was 12 years old and since then I have wanted to take over the world. What does that mean? There is no time to lose. You have to do whatever it takes to live happy moments! How is it achieved? Happiness is unique only when shared. Therefore, socializing has been shown to give us more longevity and make us happier. And this is what you are going to find with me: a friend and a soul that from the first moment will become close to you. In my tours, I will show you, in addition to my soul and culture, the most emblematic places, along with their true explanations, theories, conspiracies, philosophies, and some other jokes to keep smiling. Regarding my dreams, I have achieved writing my first book "De Kaspichan a donde quieras", as well as visiting the New 7 Wonders of the new world. On the other hand, my passions are travelling (I have been to 81 countries so far), sports (I enjoy playing chess and padel), cinema (I find documentaries productive), meeting new people and learning hidden anecdotes every day that we don't spend much time on. It will be a huge pleasure to meet you and to do my best in order to make your tour or holidays unforgettable. I have my own car and we can travel to the hidden gems in or around Madrid. Fate has chosen that we meet in this life. 'Vamos!' and Let's go! Book with me! I look forward to seeing you!

Overview of your Madrid tour

A visit to the Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial is the best way to explore the history of Spain and especially the reign of Felipe II. El Escorial, built between 1563 and 1586 to commemorate the victory of the Spanish troops in the battle of San Quintín in 1557, is a multifunctional complex that is also a pantheon, basilica, convent, school, library and palace, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1984. Segovia, on the other hand, is a place of romance, a living legacy of the past and an atmospheric medieval world with a heritage that begins with the Romans of 80 BC. The ancient aqueduct, the medieval fairy-tale castle (which served as one of the templates for Walt Disney's Cinderella Castle), last Gothic cathedral built in Europe, Romanesque churches, and mystical monasteries reveal Segovia's rich cultural heritage declared World Heritage by UNESCO in 1985. The ideal spot in the autonomous community of Castile and León. These two unusually secret gems are a must-see that you should visit!
