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.

We will start the tour at the most "castizo" quarter in Madrid, La Latina, where I grew up. Meanwhile strolling the old Madrid, we will get our way to three different taverns, where I usually go, to enjoy the typical "Tapas" meanwhile having a drink, as we, the "madrileños" do, in a friendly, remarkable and funny tour. Sharing food, drinks and laughs all together, as if you were a local is the way to dive into the roots of this historical tradition that make the society of Madrid being that opened and different. That's the perfect alibi to chat about our daily problems as we get relaxed and cheerful. You need to experience "salir de tapas" to understand our way of life. I spent a lot of money and time in my life, since I was a child, hanging around Madrid, enjoying the evenings and nights. I am the perfect person for this tour. Stop searching, I am your guide. **Tour is not available on Saturday and Sunday due to high crowded.
I have selected carefully three old taverns plenty of traditions and history inside its walls. Some of them are centenary business which are still running succesfully. - From the La Latina quarter, where I grew up, we will discover the heart of the city passing by Cava Baja, Puerta Cerrada, Plaza Mayor, Jacinto Benavente and we will end this tour in Puerta del Sol, I hope you want to share this magnificent tradition related with society, culture and history, I am willing to do so. - We are going to stop in 3 different, selected and exclusive taverns where we will enjoy extraordinary food and drinks in a cheerful atmosphere. Let go for some Tapas !!!!! :) The itinerary can be adapted to traveller's interests: do not hesitate to contact me for a customized experience.
