About Us

Guiri Guide is a lifestyle blog focused on making your move to Madrid as smooth as possible. Our motto and mission are one in the same: Honest opinions and thorough information!

Founded by a group of expats in 2010, the writers here at Guiri Guide know that moving to a new city and/or country can be overwhelming and have worked hard to find you the best solutions to life’s everyday needs. We provide information on accommodation, jobs and internships, where to eat, Spanish classes, day trips, festivals and holidays, and so much more!

So what is a ‘guiri’? The word ‘guiri’ is Spanish word, unique to Spain, meaning ‘foreigner’. For our purposes, it means anyone exploring the city with fresh eyes, finding new adventures, and falling in love with Madrid the same way we have. Feel free to explore the site, check the ‘Our Partners’ page to find more info on accommodation etc, and subscribe if you’d like to receive updates from one of Europe’s most beautiful cities!

As an additional note, we’re always excited to learn about new spots popping up in the city, so if you want to share your insight with the community, send us a tip at info@guiriguide.com!

Welcome to Madrid!

  1. Wow guys, I just moved to Madrid a week ago, and stumbled on your site today (my birthday) while looking for party supplies.

    Looks like you’ve covered a lot of topics I am interested in. I look forward to coming back for a read.

  2. I lived in Madrid for many years and still have an apartment there. I stumbles onto this site via “el Pais” and think it is a great idea. Bravo!
