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.

Overview of your Madrid tour
Anything better than combining Nature and Art? It is possible doing this tour, visiting the most famous park and museum in Madrid: the Retiro and the Prado! The Retiro Park is one of these places where people like me, the real "madrileños", like strolling and enjoying the sunny days. Its 350 acres make of this park one of the Green Lungs of Madrid. After exploring the most beautiful spots of the Retiro, we will visit the Prado Museum, one of the main art galleries in the world and one of my favourites places of the city! What I love the most is to feel myself surrounded both by Art and History. El Greco, Velázquez and Goya are waiting for you! You will learn about the importance of these painters and know about some anecdotes that you will not find on the books. What are you waiting for? Go for this Combo of Nature, Art and History Tour! I promise is a yummy experience to live!

5 stars Luis David M was a fantastic tour guide!! His knowledge, insights and understanding of Spain history and its connection to Retiro Park and The Prado Museum made everything come alive in such meaningful ways. He didn't just give us a memorized tour, he made sure we knew and understood details in order to have a much more meaningful experience with each site and piece which brought everything to life. He was patient, accommodating and encouraged questions making our tour unique to our family.
