¡Welcome!

¿WHO AM i?

Hi! I'm Anthony!

I consider myself an “all-terrain” guide. I enjoy doing all sorts of tours from foodies to wine to sports and the like. My primary areas of interest are history, architecture, and art. I am passionate about doing Tours in Toledo, the city of three cultures: Jewish, Catholic, and Muslim. Jewish heritage tours are of special interest to me as Spain and Toledo have a rich Sephardic history. I enjoy meeting people from all around the world with their varied customs and beliefs. Showing people my country is a pleasure!

Growing up in Oklahoma I frequently visited my Spanish family. I moved to Madrid in 1992 and then to Barcelona in 2001 where I first worked in fashion retail. In 2009, after passing the Official Guide Exam in Catalonia I provided tours there until 2020. I now live in Toledo, Spain where my mother’s family is from. I provide tours here and in the greater Madrid area. My university degree is in Fashion Merchandising, and I minored in Greek and Roman History. I also have CELTA certification for teaching English to foreign learners.
