Hi there! Nice to meet you

Hi! I am Beatriz, a Spaniard living in Madrid. I teach History for a living and so I enjoy very much talking about that, but I like pretty much any topic which might be interesting, such as popular culture, music, literature, art or science. Or any funny stories happening to travelers around the globe! On my tour, you will discover everything you need to know about the origins, background and curious stories starring Madrid and its people. For instance: have you ever wondered why Madrid was chosen as capital of the country over other bigger cities? Find out more by coming along with me!

Looking forward to meet you :)

We had a lovely day with Beatriz exploring El Escorial, the fabled palace and monastery, about an hour outside of Madrid. This is also the burial site for nearly all the kings and queens of Spain. Beatriz is a delightful, intelligent, humorous woman. We talked about art, architecture, history, politics, education, and culture. We also enjoyed a wonderful lunch at a restaurant she suggested. Our only disappointment was when our day ended and we had to say good-bye. We strongly recommend to future travelers spending time with our new friend, Beatriz.Beatriz is the Best!

We had a brilliant history walking tour with Beatriz! She kept us captivated for 3 hours on a very warm Monday evening, both us parents and our 16 and 13 year olds. She brought a wide range of Madrid's history to life - using different spots around the city as starting points for fascinating insights and vignettes that left us all feeling we understood Madrid and Spain much better. She was particularly brilliant and engaging our teenagers in conversation, and showing the contemporary relevance of what she was telling us. Highly recommend. Brilliantly entertaining Madrid tour

Beatriz is great fun, very informative and loves history. We spent the morning wandering the beautiful old streets of Madrid and she brought the history of the city and its inhabitants to life. I learnt lots I didn’t know and discovered places I would never have come across on my own. I highly recommend Beatriz and her English is excellent.Madrid’s history off the beaten track

Beatriz was wonderful! We booked a tour with her on the first night of our trip in Madrid, and it was an excellent introduction to the city. She was very personable, knowledgable, and engaging. As history nerds, we had a lot of questions for her, and she answered all of them with really interesting insights. I highly recommend doing a tour with Beatriz - it's absolutely worth your time and money.Fantastic experience!

Beatriz was a phenomenal guide. With her history background, we learned so much that we would never have discovered in guide books. Highly recommend Beatriz to anyone interested in the history of Madrid and exploring off the beaten path places.Excellent guide

I can’t imagine learning about Madrid any other way. In contrast to the densely-packed tour groups, this was a personal stroll with an expert on Madrid and Spanish history. It was as if we were meeting a life-long friend showing us around a city she justifiably loves. We felt privileged to learn about and visit the most important facts and sites as well as the lesser known. Beatriz made us feel as if we could bask in the city’s beauty and culture without intruding on the city’s authentic life. She is well-versed in the history but also an expert storyteller. Over time, we may forget which Phillip was which Felipé, but we will always remember Beatriz’s warmth. A perfect morning in Madrid
