Leire I.

Being a guide for me is more than a job; Being able to show the culture, history and art of this country is something that I am passionate about, being the bridge between my country and the people who visit it. I discovered this profession almost ten years ago and since then I know that my future is here.

I find it very interesting, that the final customers select the guide of their choice, depending on their presentation, feedbacks, or any other features to be taken into consideration such as the tour description, its originality, the languages spoken, the guide's personal and professional experience and so on. It also gives me the chance to design a tour according to my own personal experience of over 25 years, to make customers happy at the right pace.

I am a professional with more than 20 years of experience as an Official Tourist Guide. My mission? I want to discover you the province of Guadalajara, Alcalá de Henares and Madrid as I feel them, enjoying and having fun yourself at same time that you are learning. Personalized services adapting to your needs, facilitating you such as transportation, tickets (skip the line), restaurants or even audio-guide if you require it. I prefer to practice quiet tourism and avoid crowds in a society where it seems that the important thing is the photo and not the experience. I only want one thing at the end of your visit when you leave, that you are satisfied with your experience. I will only ask you one thing, that when you return to your home you are ambassador of these beautiful lands and, of course, come back

Ignacio alvaro M.

Hello there, I'm Ignacio, your guide to the vibrant tapestry of Madrid's culture and history and nearby cities. I was born and raised right here in this captivating city, and it's not just my home; it's my heart and soul. My journey into the world of art and history began with a profound love for both. I hold degrees in Fine Arts and Art History, and for the past ten years, I've had the privilege of being an official tour guide. Through my work, I've had the pleasure of unlocking the treasures of the Prado Museum and its incredible collections, strolling through the enchanting streets of Madrid, peeling back the layers of history in Toledo, understanding the hidden meanings of modern art at the Reina Sofia Museum and offering an exclusive glimpse into the grandeur of the Royal Palace. But my passion for art extends far beyond my professional life. I'm also a painter and photographer, and I infuse my tours with a unique artistic perspective. For fifteen years, I served as a Creative Director in the world of advertising, a role that allowed me to express my creativity in new and exciting ways. And then there's my love for horses. It's not just a hobby; it's a deep-rooted passion. I lead thrilling equestrian journeys through the breathtaking Sierra de Madrid, where the bond between man and horse takes center stage. Across these mountains, I also may lead you into El Escorial, Avila, and Segovia, where history, art, and nature meet. When you join me on a tour, you're not just exploring art and history; you're discovering it through the eyes of a true Madrileño. My dedication, love, and intimate knowledge of my country ensure that your experience will be unforgettable. Come, let me be your guide to the heart and soul of Madrid, and nearby locations, where art, history, and passion come together in a way that's bound to leave a lasting impression.

“Wonderful unknown Medieval Madrid by Jos?”

Dear José, thank you so much for this tour. My friends and I have been delighted with the tour and your interesting and amenable explanations. We had been to Madrid in the past and visited other more known sites like Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol, even walked through some of the streets in today’s visit but were completely unaware of the rich history and legends hidden in buildings and streets. What a wonderful time travel from the foundation of the city to the fifteenth century and beyond. And so many artists, regular folks and royalty Interplaying. I am definitely talk to my friends about Las Vistillas, San Isidro, The Moorish and Christian walls and recommend you as their guide when they visit Madrid. We took plenty of pictures but would like to see yours as well. Best wishes and hope to engage with you on our next trip to Madrid.

“A wonderful ly informative and fun preparation to appreciate Guernica!”

In just two hours Leire managed to use key pieces of art and here encyclopedic knowledge of the modern art movement to prepare us to view Picasso's Guernica thoughtfully. Having a better understanding of the movements of cubism, and surrealism helped place the work and its style in context. She also took time to introduce us to some lesser known works that were cutting edge for their time by artists who are just beginning to be more deeply studied. All 5 of us came to the tour with different backgrounds and she made each person feel appreciated for their perspective. I highly recommend Leire as a guide - it made the whole experience richer and we learned so much.

Leire I.

Thank you! It was a pleasure being with you, I felt very comfortable . I´m very happy that you enjoyed the tour. I hope to see your again!! thanks for everything!
