My private tour guide, Georgi Dianov Georgiev was upbeat, tons of energy, fun to being around, insightful, knowledgeable of the area and an excellent tour guide. Georgia made the history, art and the local culture come alive with this tour. We also had time for me to try paella a local food dish. Georgi provided hotel pick-up, wore his tour guide badge and confirmed my tour reservation. He was flexible to accommodate my interests. Excellent driver and his vehicle was immaculate. He speaks a few languages. English was excellent. He is also an author of 3 books! Inquire about other tours that he offers while you are in Madrid. Georgi gives outstanding service. As a solo female traveler, I felt safe with him. During my tour, I was with a friend more than with a tour guide. If you need a guide with private transportation, book your tour with Georgi.

Georgi Dianov picked up our group of 7 in front of our hotel, then we headed toward Consuegra (Don Quixote and the Windmills). Georgi quizzed us about many subjects on our drive, handing out points to whoever got the correct answer, so much fun. Georgi was extremely knowledgeable (he has a PhD from Cambridge) about Consuegra and multiple subjects, really the best guide we have ever had and we have traveled to France, the UK, Scotland, Ireland, Italy, Greece, Argentina. Georgi was thoughtful, funny, kind, easy to understand and answer any question we had. Then we headed to Toledo and walked up and down the streets, visiting the Cathedral and the best Marzipan Shop. Another day we had a tour of the Prado Museum in Madrid which was unbelievable. Georgi pointed out techniques of the painter/painting, something we had never experienced before, making them come alive! Georgi was truly amazing and our time with him was unforgettable!
