Madrid Highlights And Guided Tour Royal Palace
At the agreed time, we will meet our guide to enjoy our panoramic tour of Madrid. We will get to know the most emblematic points of the city with an official local guide and admire monuments such as Puerta de Alcalá, Plaza de Cibeles, Puerta del Sol and Bernabéu Stadium. Our route will start in the city centre, very close to the Royal Palace. From here, we will take a walking tour through the streets of the historic centre of Madrid. We will discover emblematic places that you cannot miss during your visit to the city, such as Plaza Mayor, Puerta del Sol or Plaza de la Villa. After an hour's walk through the centre of Madrid, we will board one of our air-conditioned buses for a tour of Madrid's most outstanding monuments. Starting at the Plaza de Oriente, we will have the opportunity to discover the history of the city as we drive through it. From the bus we will be able to see the oldest bridge in Madrid, have a spectacular view of the Royal Palace or see the Manzanares river. We will visit one of the most important streets of Madrid: La Gran Vía. As we head towards the Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas, we will pass by the Cibeles Fountain and the Puerta de Alcalá, the most famous of the five ancient gates that gave access to Madrid. To finish the tour, we will pass by the Santiago Bernabeu, Real Madrid's stadium, which has recently been refurbished. On the way back, we will pass through Calle Serrano and Atocha Station, concluding at the Plaza de Oriente car park, just in front of the Royal Palace. But no visit to Madrid would be complete without a visit to the Royal Palace. Therefore, a local guide will take us with our group to the palace and we will visit the grounds together, skip the queues and immerse ourselves in the history of this beautiful place. Nowadays, it is the venue for the most important receptions of the Royal Crown. Find out which audiences, gala dinners and agreement signings have been held over the years. Stroll around the Plaza de Armas. Marvel at the impressive tapestries and rooms decorated with elegant antique furniture. Follow your guide through the Grand Staircase, the Throne Room and the Gala Dining Room, among others. Tip: The Royal Palace of Madrid, with an extension of 135 000 m² and 3418 rooms, is the largest royal palace in Western Europe and one of the largest in the world.
