Hi there! Nice to meet you

Julio César

I was born and raised in Medellin, the city of eternal spring. I moved to Madrid after finishing my media and journalism studies and almost immediately fell in love with it. Its incredible cultural mixture and mild weather have both captivated and encouraged me to settle down.

I love expressing myself through dance, especially afro-latin rhythms, which I combine with my other passion: Dj'ing. Through this, I can keep in contact with my roots, while sharing it with the world.

I did 3 days of photo workshops with Julio - and I wish I could have done more. Julio arrived prepared with suggested itineraries for each session, including different locations and lighting scenarios as well as composition and technical exercises. He had reviewed my photography in advance to ensure the workshop would help me refine and improve my skills. His enthusiasm for photography, for the city of Madrid and even helping me practice Spanish made our 3 days fly by. His workshop also feels like a cultural and historical tour of Madrid as he familiarized me with this beautiful, lively city. It was such a pleasure spending time with him. I highly recommend Julio and look forward to a future opportunity to shoot with him. Gracias por todo, Julio!Knowledgeable + passionate guide

Julio has so much information about history, cultural and everyday life of Madrid but he managed to keep it entertaining with the right amount of facts and dates. We definitely recommend Julio if you want to get a first hand experience of Madrid.Amazing tour of Madrid

Julio ticks all the boxes for a good and friendly guide. He is extremely passionate and enjoys his work. He was patient and spend time to give us an overview of the neighbourhood of Madrid. Then he walked us through the Madrid old town and explained to us the significance of each Madrid attraction. I highly recommend Julio. He is friendly and a fantastic guy tp hang out with.Passionate and Friendly

Julio Cesar was great. He gave us a nice overview and walking tour of the city center. He also provided a helpful map with some places in the city we couldn’t miss. He was also very knowledgeable about local markets and places that would interest our 8 year old son. Would definitely recommend Julio Cesar for anyone looking for an overview of Madrid when they arrive to this bustling city. Family friendly!

Our family of 7 -3 teen/preteen girls, parents, and grandparents had the time of our life with Julio! He picked up on our level of curiosity and humor right away and engaged us all in the perfect combination of history & local lore. His energy and passion were contagious and even after 20 hours of travel without sleep we & the girls went from dragging a bit to hanging on to his every word. His English is excellent and encouraged the girls to try their limited Spanish. Julio is ‘a people person’ and knew instinctively how to connect with each one of us individually and as group as well as how to tailor the tour to our interests. All with humor and spunk!. Lucky us - a perfect introduction to Madrid. Our time with Julio will be one of the best memories of our 9 days in Spain. Julio is amazing!

Die super sympathische Führung mit viel Hintergrundwissen von Julio César verging wie im Flug. Viele seiner Tipps zu Märkten und Ausstellungen hatten wir dann im Anschluss der Tour auf eigene Faust unternommen. Er hatte uns sogar noch im Nachhinein Links zu Veranstaltungen und weitere Tipps geschickt. VIELEN DANK für so viel Engagement...wir hatten viel Spaß mit dir!Sachkundig, kurzweilig, sympathisch!
