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.

Nice stroll around the city medieval sites
Overview of your Madrid tour
An amazing walk starting on the spot where Madrid was founded in the 9th c. by Muslims. We will discover the remains of a medieval city which developed its history on a melting pot of diverse cultures: the area where I was born and lived my childhood! We'll discover the remaining medieval walls that surrounds the city and we'll have the chance to walk around the area, visiting the old squares where the council was established in Plaza de La Villa, symbolic historical place, and also Plaza Mayor, an example of fine architectonical urban art nowadays very lively: here I'll show you my favourite places, where I usually meet my friends and we all cheers for life. This medieval area is also full of traditions and history, and in some monuments you can still breathe the power of this historical area. We'll explore it all! I've been a professional guide for 20 years now and I travelled myself a lot, so to know the extra value of experiencing places wit a local. And I am one: a real madrileño for your tours
