Hola, bienvenidos! Hi and welcome! My name is Marta and I'm licensed tour guide since 2002. I have a degree in History and Archaeology because they are my passions and in fact, I work also as an archaeologist. My other passion is travelling and from my own experience, what I really enjoy are unique experiences that make you feel as a local and provides you a dip in the place that you are visiting. Madrid is my hometown and where I live and as you'll see, it's a really enjoyable and open city. In Madrid you can find almost everything that you expect: Culture, Heritage, Gastronomy, Nature, Leisure, Shopping, Night life… Let me be your guide in Madrid and share with me it's unique lifestyle! In Madrid there are options for everyone depending on your personal preferences and I'll be really glad to accompany you. If you are staying in Madrid for a few days its surroundings are also a must, with UNESCO sites like Toledo, Segovia or Ávila. This cities are perfect for a daytrip from Madrid and it's also a very good way to visit and experience unique spots in Spain. And if it's not your first time in Madrid maybe you would like something different and out from the most popular tours like a visit to Madrid Mountains or a Winery tour. I'm looking forward to be your private guide in Madrid and I'll be happy to customize tours for larger groups or special interests, everything is possible… or almost! - Degree in History and Archaeology by Autonoma University of Madrid - Official Licensed Guide of Madrid.

Prado Museum is one of the most representative painting galleries in Europe and gathers what once were the Royal Collections. It was inaugurated in 1819 and since then, it has been one of Europe's top museums and a must-see if you're in Madrid. For 2 hours we will explore and visit in depth some of the masterpieces that the museum has from Great European Masters as Fra Angelico, Hieronymus Bosch, Rogier van der Weyden, Raffaele, Tiziano, El Greco, Velázquez, Rubens and Goya. This visit is an stroll in classical european painting and its background covering four centuries, from the 15th up to the 19th century.
Marta’s tour of Prado was excellent! She provided a logical progression through highlights of the collection and gave us details about each painting that we never would have appreciated without her explanation. We highly recommend her.
Marta provided a wonderful guided tour of Prado highlights. Having a knowledgeable guide helped us from being overwhelmed by the many rooms and paintings in the Prado. Marta’s descriptions and explanations were clear and we enjoyed our visit, focusing on early period European masterpieces.
You can’t find a more wonderful person to show you around Madrid than Marta! Our tour of the old town and then the Prado Museum was a highlight of our visit. Marta knows history, art, and culture well and weaves her knowledge into interesting stories that make Madrid come alive. We didn’t just see art at the Prado, we experienced it as she helped us understand the artists behind the works and the response to the art in its time. She was also both professional and warmly personal. She helped us in advance of our visit and responded to all our needs in the moment. Best of all we enjoyed spending time with her and found ourselves loving Madrid more because of her.
My wife and I truly enjoyed walking through the Prado Museum with Marta. She is so knowledgeable about both the history behind the art (and that is reflected in the composition of the art) and the specific details of the many and glorious paintings we saw. For example, we would stop in front of a painting by El Greco, and she would tell us when the work was executed and how critics have interpreted it over the years. Then we would engage in some conversation, and she would answer our questions. I can’t imagine having a better guide for a visit to the Prado than Marta.
Marta was amazing, flexible, very knowledgeable and very personable with a lot of positive energy. We highly recommend her.
Marta was wonderful!! She taught us so much about the artists and the history. She was pleasant, accommodating and very knowledgable! We had a great experience and highly recommend her!!
We will meet at the Museums entrance or meeting point next to it. Once at the Prado, we will go straight to the matter, visiting for 2 hour the highlights and masterpieces. This tour is available for more than 7 people and it's also possible to combine this visit with any other museum like the Reina Sofía or the Royal Palace, if you're interested in this possibility just let me know.
