¡Hola! I'm a 38 year old Belgian historian living in Madrid. I came here for love and on top of that I ended up adoring my new city. I am a very social person so I wanted to share my love for the city with other people. I like cultural activities as going to the movies, theatre and visiting museums, I practice a lot of sports (I love snowboarding, surfing, cycling and triathlon) and I have a passion for languages, books and music. After my Master Studies in History, I started working in development work. I managed projects in Philippines, South Africa and Burundi. My first contact with the tourism business was when I decided to combine my passion for snowboarding with my passion for people. So I became a guide for tour operators in the French Alpes for two winter seasons. Later, I also lived in Istanbul where I worked as a tour guide for a biking company. When I arrived in Madrid and I loved the city so much, I decided to continue my work as a city guide. I adore showing people around and telling stories about my precious hometown so much that my friends even call me Guide Madrid Caroline. I would also love to show you around this wonderful city. I can guide you to the best museums, historical buildings, parks, scenic points or nice places and streets. I assure you a unique and authentic experience off the beaten path and into the hidden treasures and secrets of the city. I can be flexible with your agenda and fulfill any specific interests you may have. Let me know your preferences and schedule and I will come up with an itinerary that suits your requirements and personal profile. With me, you and Madrid will fall in love at first sight! Looking forward to meet you soon, Caroline - Master's Degree in History - Official licensed guide - Bachelor Degree in Nursing - Emergency Medical Responder (10 years of experience as a lifeguard, firefighter and emergency nurse)

You want a total different view and perspective on Madrid? You want to get to know the urban lifestyle of this beautiful metropolitan city? Join my street art tour and let yourself get overwhelmed by the urban art of the streets of the capital of Spain. During this 2 hour walking tour we'll mainly cover the area of Lavapiés, the multicultural neighborhood in the south of the center. I'll let you discover street art in all kind of forms: on public and private facades, inside old industrial buildings, from known and less known artists. Dive into the wonderful world of city art!
We had a great tour. Caroline was terrific (and did a great job engaging our teens). In walking the neighborhood we learned a lot not just about the art but also about the subculture of a neighborhood we otherwise would never have explored. We definitely recommend this experience.
Caroline enlightened us with context around the street art she showed us. Her concern for her local community's issues was a lovely part of the tour. The highlight was getting access to the local community art hub.
Everything about this tour was just amazing I really enjoyed everything
Mary was amazing. Kept connected in a very busy environment of the day. I was jet lagged and tired, but she gave me energy and showed me the neighborhood she loved. The art, locations, food she shared with me would never have been possible with any other guide. Her information was perfect. Not too much , just the right amount to make me feel like i understood the way of life in Madrid. If you get a chance to do this tour you will not be disappointed. Lovely time spent together.
Very knowledgeable. She showed us a side of the city you would never get with another tour.
We'll meet up at Plaza Lavapiés, I'll take you to the lively streets of the coolest neighbourhood of Madrid and we'll visit a former tobacco factory now transformed in a self organized alternative social cultural center. In this way you get to experience the real urban art of a dynamic multicultural part of Madrid.
