I was born in Madrid in 1973, living all my life in this wonderful, magical and historical city. Degree in tourism and with more than 20 years of experience in taking care and guiding people, I will be focused on making your visit an amazing time to remember. History, traditions, art, gastronomy and many more. . . I'm ready to share a good time with you showing up the reality of my city and surroundings. I started out being a tour guide 20 years ago, since then I have travelled around the world, I have visited places on the 5 continents diving into the culture of exotic countries and I realized that being guided by a local is the way to explore by first hand a new city. I experienced by myself what everyone of us expects when being guided. I have been so many times a tourist like everyone else when travelling. Let me guide you through Madrid past, present and future. Language: English or Spanish. History & Art History Degree Tourism Bachelor Certified by County Goverment of Madrid as Official Local Guide.

The art that Spanish Kings collected during centuries to beautify their Palaces. The Spanish Royal Family collected this value collection of art during the XVI, XVII, XVIII and XIX centuries. The building is marvelous, the paintings remarkables and the guide will melt everything to make you enjoy in a glorious day. Afterwards we will get into a quite area in the center of the city, very closed to Prado Museum, to pleasure our senses through the Retiro Park, a natural green area that once were the Royal Gardens of a huge Palace complex desinged in the 17th century to be apart from the Court life. The Retiro Gardens has been, since my childhood, a refuge to hide away from the stressfull rythm of the urban life. We will walk through the Royal Gate and stroll through this marvelous park of 118 Ha, with more than 13000 trees. Sculptures, monuments and gardens design will surprise you. Another way to energize our senses.
