About Tour Guide Manuel G.
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
