Our tour to Segovia with Georgi was fantastic, largely due to Georgi's entertaining personality and his in-depth knowledge of the history and culture of the region, and all sorts of world-wide facts and statistics. He managed to maneuver through closed streets and 47,000 marathon runners to pick us up at the hotel, early even. As we made our way out to Segovia, he informed and entertained us with multiple trivia questions, engaging us in the world of travel. Once in Segovia, he shared his expertise of the region as we passed the aqueduct and made our way to the castle. The castle was both beautiful and interesting. Unfortunately, we had to miss our lunch of suckling pig because one of our group was quite ill. Georgi was very empathetic, going as far as to move the car and get gatorade. I guess we'll just have to go back. I highly recommend this tour. Georgi has a wealth of knowledge, always shared in an engaging fashion. I hope we can visit with him again.

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!

Discover Segovia - Full Day Tour from Madrid
Overview of your Madrid tour
Segovia 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 (considered the most important work of Roman civil engineering in Spain, and the most significant and best preserved monuments of Ancient Rome in the Iberian Peninsula), 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. Enjoy local lunch at the historical restaurant: Mesón de Cándido, inaugurated in 1786 and famous for its scenery when hitting the suckling pigs with the edge of a plate, cutting them into pieces, to prove that they are ready. More native cuisine options apart from the roast suckling pig are Segovian beans, local soups or salads, fish or meat.

Segovia is a magical city you must visit with Georgi. The car ride and time exploring provide rich, deep appreciation for the history. We (mom, dad, teenage son) especially enjoyed the Aquaduct, Alcazar and lunch at Meson de Candido. This trip was a highlight of our 2 weeks in Spain. Highly recommend!
Awesome guy, great personality, has Phd, so knowledgeable, so patient, so kind, would highly recommend. My favorite guide by far!
