Hola! My name is Carmen M, I was born and raised in Madrid and I am working as a guide since 2003 (I do not even want to think how long this is!) I got my license as Oficial Guide of Madrid in 2017. I started working as a guide when I was in college, I am a licensed Architect so I always loved art, culture. . . and as you will see also love talking to people, food, nature, so even before I finished my studies I knew what I wanted to do when I get older, and this was to show people around not only the big monuments or masterpieces but also those special details that makes our city Madrid and the ones around so special. No matter how many times I visit those places I am always fascitated. My first contact with the world of tourism was as a Tour Director, I traveled to many places all over the world, and I always loved the local guides who were explaining about their cities, and I even although I love traveling and meeting new places after some years doing that job I decided I wanted to stay closer to family, friends. . . and show my own world to the people visiting us. Madrid has so much to offer you should think about staying longer (no matter how long you plan to stay)! I also enjoy Nature very much, specially the mountains, great views, silence, fresh air. . . and we are lucky Madrid is a very green city and with beautiful Natural Parks very close to the center. So I hope to meet you soon, I can promise Madrid will not dissapoint you!! See you in Madrid! I am Licensed Oficial Guide in region and city of Madrid, Toledo, Segovia, Avila and Salamanca. I have a Degree in Architecture and Urban Planning by the Universidad Politecnica de Madrid and the TU of Vienna None

Overview of your Madrid tour

Toledo is an amazing city 50 miles away from Madrid, located in a fabulous position on the top of a hill and sourounded by the Tagus river and the Citywalls . We will need only 25 minutes by train to there. Once there and after a short ride by taxi around the city to have a great panoramic view we will start our walking tour to discover the most important monuments of the city, but also Toledo is full of hidden secrets that are typical in the medieval cities, narrow streets, charming little squares. . . and of course we will get to know the history of one of the most important cities of Spain, the City of the Three Cultures and even nowadays home to the Primate Cathedral of Spain, the most important Cathedral of the country and a masterpiece of Gothic architecture. We will explore the christian, jewish and muslim neighborhoods and the most important monuments inside the city walls. We will have a break for lunch on your own. Later on we will come back to Madrid.

Your Madrid tour itinerary

The itinerary is flexible depending on your personal interest that we can discuss before, but I will suggest that apart of strolling in the beautiful streets of the city we visit: The Cathedral of Toledo Monastery of San Juan de los Reyes Santo Tome Church , where the famus painting by El Greco is One of the Synagogues There are many other places that you may be interested and I am happy to include them on the walk. There is also the possibility of using a private van instead of the train, this is specially interesting if you are not confortable walking uphills or over coblestones. With the van we can get closer to some of the monuments but walking will be always necessary. If we come by train, you need to purchase your train tickets (mine is included in the price as well as my entrances fee). I can help you with that and you reimburse later. Like that after the tour if you want to stay longer on your own for shopping this is as well possible.
