About Tour Guide Piero C.
100% "gato" at heart and rabidly passionate about Madrid and Spain.
I started my tour “PIERO’S FAMOUS TOUR” in 2017 as a way to introduce my city to the many friends who kept visiting from abroad. Always praised as: "very good fun", "immersive", "diverse", "dynamic", and "extraordinarily off the beaten tourist path" — I kept nurturing it each time with more information and experiences. Unaware of my own hidden potential, I watched word spread — and with it, I found myself increasingly possessed by the "duende" of my country and its culture.
An immersive, one-of-a-kind journey through Madrid and Spain's history, culture, and traditions — engaging all your senses: taste, sight, smell, touch... a full blown experience.
I've also extended into an exclusive Tapas Tour, diving deep into the gastronomic soul of Spain through its most iconic and beloved bites.

MY VALUES
Politically incorrect (in the best possible way). I stick to history, using plain words, direct messages, and — of course — a lot of humour.
¡Viva España!

Hi all, and welcome to Spain. I want to share with all visitors, as I have been doing for more than 10 years by now, some lovely Spanish cities not as well known as Segovia, my parents' hometown. If you want to enjoy this Roman city and its aqueduct, visit its castle, shaped like a Walt Disney fairy tale, and enjoy delicious food such as suckling pig, just let me know; I know all the best spots there. I'm used to this trip, mainly heading from Madrid on a high-speed train, affordable and in just 30 minutes. I love meeting foreigners, beginning as tourists and mostly ending as friends :)

I’m a Brazilian-Spanish storyteller who has called Madrid home for over 20 years and I’m still captivated by its streets, flavors, and hidden corners. My tours are not just walks, but immersive experiences where history, art, food, and everyday life come together. The goal is simple: not just to show you Madrid, but to help you feel it. I draw inspiration from Goya at the Prado and Picasso at Reina Sofía, from flamenco rhythms to Almodóvar films, and from the simple joy of sharing tapas and vermouth in traditional taverns. I believe the best way to understand Madrid is through its culture and its people. That’s why every tour is built around storytelling, emotion, and connection. If you’re looking to discover a more authentic, human, and unforgettable Madrid, I’d love to share it with you.

Hola and welcome to Madrid and its surroundings! My name is Vanessa and I'm looking forward to showing you this beautiful and unique city and making sure that you enjoy every second of your visit. But not only the city of Madrid; there are a number of other cities, within a distance of 60-70 minutes by car, like Toledo, Segovia, El Escorial, Ávila, … that fully complement the modern Madrid with the history of Spain in more than two thousand years: romans, muslins, jews and christians. I’m a proud madrileña with Swiss Heritage from my father. He came to Madrid in the sixties and fell in love with it. I have also lived in other European countries like Switzerland, Germany and France. Although I have travelled a lot, my favourite city has always been Madrid and its secret squares, sunny terraces, centenary shops, taverns and great city life. Come with me and discover the history and legends of Madrid, its Muslim origins, the charming streets and neighbourhoods, three of the best art museums in the world, the unique shops, the best tapas and especially the Spanish way of life. We can also have a look over the roofs of Madrid from special viewpoints and taste the authentic gastronomy and wines in town. In the cities around Madrid you will see a different place. Much smaller, more quiet and with an amazing and still touchable history. Cities that ruled the region and Spain thousand years ago, when Madrid did not even exist. PS: If what you want to see is not included in my list (like the Thyssen Museum, Retiro Park, Aranjuez, Lavapies), please send me an email and I will arrange a special tour for you. Bienvenidos!
