My name is Eugenia Bugallal, and I guide history tours in Madrid as well as private events for companies. I invite you on a journey through time that will surprise, entertain, and transport you to another era. As a native Spaniard with experience living in Boston and London, I offer a unique perspective on Spain’s rich cultural history.
History Tours in Madrid — After which the word Madrid will never sound the same
We live in a complex moment. There are more than 58 active conflicts in the world — the highest number since the Second World War. As a result, I started looking at history differently. Specifically, through biography. That is, through the origins, personalities and circumstances that shaped each person.
At Spanish Balcony, we identify overlooked figures, researching their trajectories and documenting them from a humanitarian perspective. We document their lives — origins, peculiarities, and pressures — with the care one might reserve for a family heirloom.
Moreover, these stories come alive through tours and events. Characters are not just presented — they are relived. Through meals, tastings, and encounters rooted in their era.
Therefore, every tour is tailored to you, whether you come as an individual, a family, or a company.
Our journey begins with women — some crowned by birth, others by merit — who deserve not just a footnote, but a chapter of their own.
