Olé Amigos! I'm a professional guide, licensed tour manager born in the city of Madrid. I have 15 years of experience and I previously lived and worked in Paris, Barcelona, Berlin, Tel Aviv and San Sebastian for my food and wine career in michelin starred restaurants. I'm a chef and wine expert, so I feel passion about touring while caring for the "eating and drinking" factor. With over 1,850 private tours delivered and more than 900 traveler reviews, I am one of the most experienced guides on the ToursByLocals platform worldwide and the leading guide in Madrid. In 2025, I was honored with the ToursByLocals Golden Guide Career Award for outstanding performance. My somewhat nomadic lifestyle has given me a wide perspective of life, culture, history and the excitement of experiencing new destinations while enjoying and respecting local traditions. Apart from living in different countries and learning to adapt to different cultures, I keep traveling and I have been a tourist myself many times. I love planning my excursions by my morning cup of coffee, always hungry to find new exciting local spots and stories that enrich my insider's insight. Perhaps you have been to Spain before and you are looking for something new? From my own travelling experience I know how important is to get to the best places avoiding being treated "like a tourist" or how tricky it can get finding that unforgettable wine cellar, having the right restaurant table or sitting at an intimate Flamenco "tablao". As a local, I already know all those special places and hidden corners, typical cafés, unknown museums and specialized stores - and I will be more than happy to share my learnings with you. I will tell you plenty of curious anecdotes about where we are walking by, what are we tasting or contemplating at. During your stay, I will be the Spaniard that hosts you, your family and friends, and I will organize for you the visits tailored to your needs and at your own pace so you can enjoy the most of it. I have a small fleet of luxury vehicles and can get various quality size vehicles for different size groups.

Pepe's Toledo tour was beyond expectations. His mastery of the history of the region, and the way he presents it is so interesting and engaging. It was a magnificent history lesson all in one day. A highlight of the tour was lunch in a local medieval home where the first floor that originally housed a business had been converted into a restaurant. So it is still functioning as it did in the middle ages as both a business and a home with family living quarters upstairs. The meal was absolutely delicious local cuisine, as we expected since Pepe also has a history working in Michelin restaurants. What a fascinating guy! We would never have thought to experience this had we been touring alone. Pepe also brought us by a gold filagree studio where the artisans practice the art for which Toledo is renowned. We found the prettiest little gold filagree plate which is now a souvenir of our time in Toledo. This was one of the best tours of our time in Spain. We may never do a group tour again after experiencing the difference of an expertly executed private tour. Thank you, Pepe!

My husband and I had an amazing visit to Toledo with Pepe. He communicated with me in advance about the pickup location and arrived exactly when he said he would. During the drive from Madrid he went into great detail about the Jews’ arrival in Spain and brought us up through the centuries to the Middle Ages. Once inside the old city walls, he provided background on the Spanish crusades, the inquisition, and the expulsion. Pepe’s detailed knowledge of history of biblical and ancient times, the Roman period, European conflicts, Spain, and Judaism combined to provide us with a true learning experience. I recommend Pepe highly as a guide, he made the difference, turning what would have been an ok day, into an important experience that will stay with us.

Fantastic tour. Hard to imagine a better guide for this tour. He is so knowledgeable while also being very personable. He can get into great depth if that’s what you want. We were in Spain for almost 3 weeks and we found it one of our most fascinating days in Spain.
