Hi there! Nice to meet you

María Clara

Hello! My name is Maria Clara. I was born in Medellin, Colombia and grew up in Spain. I'm currently based in London, a city I love and which I now call home after some years back and forth between here and Madrid.

I have guided in Madrid for Withlocals, and I am pleased to do it in London. I am ready to show you around and tell you hints about my favourite places, including museums, art galleries and venues to see the best live music.

I completed the Highlights & Hidden Gems of London tour with María Clara and had an amazing time! I was only in London for about 36 hours and really wanted to maximize my time in the city, and this tour couldn't have been a better choice. María Clara is extremely knowledgable about the culture of London—including food, music, art, etc.—in terms of both the tourist attractions as well as lesser known aspects of the city. She also has deep historical knowledge and provided context for every place we visited. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested!Fantastic tour and company!

We had a group of 7 and our guide Maria Clara was a delight. Very communicative and knowledgeable. My problem with the tour was the expense. Basically we paid approximately $100 per person for 10 tastes. I didn’t realize we were going to Borough Market where, as tourists, we visited a few days prior. Had I known, we would have skipped our earlier stop. However she did introduce us to some new spots. But what we tasted was not worth the $700 we paid. I know there are other expenses but just not worth that kind of money. Skip this, do a little research, and go on your own. Great guide but…

Maria Clara was an excellent guide through the market and sharing local London history. Her knowledge of the market vendors introduced us to many new foods to try that we wouldn’t have found on our own. She was a delight to spend time with!Excellent Market Tour

Maria was fabulous! We loved this food tour! We learned a lot of history as well as about many different dishes and got to eat them all. You get a good amount of food, we did not need to each lunch after this, and we loved every minute of it. Highly recommend this food tour & Maria :)Highly Recommend

My wife and I got some great insight (and tastes) into a quaint Madrid neighborhood through the eyes (and taste buds) of our guide Maria. She was knowledgeable and attentive, making great tasting selections and ensuring that all we would sample was well matched to our preferences wherever we stopped. We visited a variety of shops/bars and thoroughly enjoyed our time with her.Great Madrid experience

Maria was an excellent tour guide and I would highly recommend doing a tour 'with locals'. The group is small (just your group) and can be catered to your likes/dislikes. Maria provided us with great information on the area and the food we tried. Excellent value!Friendly & Knowledgable

I learned a lot from my tour with Maria. We went to spots I wouldn't be able to find on my own, especially since this was my first day in Madrid. I really enjoyed my tour with Maria and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to other people. Excellent experience

We have recently had the pleasure of taking this food tour with Maria. Maria was great, really friendly , knowledgeable and she took the time to get to know us as a group to ensure we got the most out of the experience. We got to visit some more authentic places than we normally would have ventured to , definately felt like we were with the locals. The food we tasted was all really good. We highly recommend this type of tour if you are visiting Madrid . Maria was the perfect host. Thank you. Great Food Tour
