Hi there! Nice to meet you

Drica

I'm a Brazilian-Spanish storyteller crazy in love with Madrid, my adopted home for about 2 decades! I'm a positive soul in essence, but you'll see me the happiest when watching an Almodovar or Bunuel movie, dancing the night away at a rock concert, admiring Goyas and Picassos at a museum, having a glass of wine or vermouth on tap (tapas included!) and planning my next trip! I'm fascinated with diversity, so I would love to be your host! :)

Drica made us feel right at home in the fantastic atmosphere of Lavapiés. It felt like being with an old friend with wonderful communication skills and excellent English. One has to understand the cultural importance of street art in Madrid, but also specifically in Lavapiés to truly appreciate the city. A must do with Drica. It takes you places that you would not see in Madrid without this tour. Thank you so much, we loved it. Great art, excellent guide

Drica was a great guide, showing us her favorite art pieces, giving a bit of historic and local context and recommending good adresses. It was a great way to discover the district of lavapies with a more local view, and enjoy some typical vermut in the neighborhood market. It really felt like diving straight into a community and lively district, while understanding the recent gentrification problems and changes it is facing. It was an awesome morning, with the happy and interesting company of Drica :)Smily visit of a lively district

Saturday morning we had a wonderful tour i Madrid together with Drica as our local guide. Drica was very knowledgeable and helpful. She took us to places of interest.We also got a lot of advice of restaurants, galleries and other interesting places to visit. We can hardly recommend Drica if you go to Madrid. 👍Amazing tour in Madrid!

Drica was an amazing tour guide. We were able to get the history, the layout, and some “local knowledge” of Madrid. Lots of walking but well worth it! City walking Tour of Madrid

We had a lovely time exploring Madrid with Drica. Her passion for the city and her knowledge of the history and culture of Madrid made for a great introduction to our visit. Drica's warm personality and kindness makes you feel like you are with an old friend. I would highly recommend a tour with Drica! Tres Chicas

I scheduled this tour with Drica on my husband’s birthday as a surprise. Drica was truly wonderful and friendly, adjusted herself to our interests and preferences. The tour in Lavapies was so nice and relaxed, on a Saturday morning. She walked us through all the street art, was really knowledgeable about the history and uniqueness of every area and Madrid. We highly recommend Drica and hope to meet again in the future!

We were in Madrid for less than 24 hours during a layover. We booked a tour with Drica and she was fantastic. Very knowledge and friendly. She also gave us some great recommendations for places to pop into for tapas and drinks without reservations. It was an all around great experience. Wonderful 90 minute overview tour!
