For those seeking to uncover Madrid’s hidden secrets, he is a true ally in adventure. Born in the heart of the city, he grew up surrounded by family stories and travels that sparked a lifelong fascination with the mysteries of the past. From his earliest journeys through Greece and Egypt, he knew his life would be dedicated to exploring the traces left behind by ancient civilizations.

His background is as rich as it is diverse: he holds a degree in History, a master’s in Maritime Archaeology, and completed his academic path with a PhD in History and Archaeology. He has participated in international excavations, studying archaeological sites and artifacts that piece together the puzzle of humanity’s past. But above all, his true passion has always been Madrid, whose historical and archaeological legacy he finds endlessly fascinating.

Over the years, he discovered that his calling extended beyond academic research—he thrives on sharing that passion with others. After years of fieldwork, he returned to Madrid with the goal of transforming his knowledge and experience into unforgettable journeys for others. Since 2025, he has been a licensed guide, designing exclusive experiences: personalized visits to iconic museums such as the Prado, the National Archaeological Museum, the Reina Sofía, and the Royal Palace, as well as walking tours through historic Madrid, where every street and square unveils a new story.

His specialty, archaeology, has enabled him to uncover the city’s hidden layers, tracing its evolution over the centuries and revealing surprising details which are often overlooked. Through his eyes, Madrid becomes a living stage where history comes to life in a vivid and authentic way.

Each tour is carefully crafted to be much more than just a visit—it’s an immersive and emotional journey into the city’s heritage and memory. He weaves together anecdotes, curiosities, and rare findings to forge deep connections with his guests, awakening wonder and inspiration. As he often says, learning is not just about acquiring facts—it’s about living a transformative, vibrant, and memorable experience.
