Ep. 6 Javier Garcia Alt Tour Madrid

Does going off the beaten path excite you? Are you interested less about dates and more about the social, political, and gender politics? What about street art? Then you will be interested in what our guest Javier Garcia has to say. He has started an alternative tour company, Cool Tour Spain, where he takes his guest to the less-visited corners of Madrid. Javier explains the complex nature of street art and how the works can be interpreted. In addition, he also has created tours about feminism, architecture, and alternative perspectives on Madrid. The best part is he offers a free tour for our listeners. Enjoy and Thank you, Javier!

This show is about great tour guides. We are going to get to know them on another level and talk about the ups and downs of the tour guide profession, their passions, their quirks, and their love for the tour themes they host.
We will learn how some guides are historians, as others are history detectives, some can be philosophers that explain the unexplainable, some are social psychologists that can give you historical context so you can better understand why things are the way they are.
We are going to discuss why guides are more than just local facts. It's in a guide´s nature to be gregarious and inquisitive and always willing to help. That makes them great resources to hidden gems and recommendations. They have connections to where to find things, an be that translator when need be.
Above all, this podcast is about letting these great storytellers tell you their perspectives, strange interactions with guests, funny stories, and fact sand the secrets they want to share with you.
