Signing up for day trips from Madrid through the suburbs of the Spanish capital is an excellent option for making the most of your holiday in the city. We offer you the possibility to go on our trips, which include guided tours to places near the capital, treasures like Toledo, Aranjuez, Avila, Segovia, El Escorial or the Valley of the Fallen. All of these destinations are quite interesting. Find out for yourself!
Get the prices of each one of these guided tours, which are always done in comfortable buses for short journeys on the road. We will clearly show you the schedule of each of our itineraries and of the places to which we’ll have to take the bus. From there, we will enjoy a day discovering the charms of Madrid’s suburbs, thanks to the presence of our guide, who will accompany you both at the destination of each trip and on the journey there.
Why should you embark on any of our trips to the outskirts of Madrid? It’s very simple: there’s much to see and our tours will definitely surprise you.
All of our trips from Madrid take place during one day. Throughout the day, sufficient time is available to tour places quite different from the capital, like Avila or Segovia. The first is famous for its long medieval walls and the Santa Teresa de Jesus. And the second is world-famous for its Roman aqueduct and the spectacular Alcazar.
Another interesting destination for a trip from Madrid is the city of Toledo. This city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and it’s worth going on the peaceful guided tour that we offer you through its streets and to its monuments. It’s the best way to discover the City of Three Cultures.
The attractive places to see on a day trip from Madrid don’t stop there. It’s also possible to go to two quite distinct places that embody the far-off and more recent histories of Spain. Trips and guided tours to Monastery of San Lorenzo del Escorial and to the Valley of the Fallen are also available.
And equally interesting is to go on a trip to Aranjuez in order to see the palaces, museum and gardens in the beautiful Comunidad de Madrid, located very close to the capital and thus easy to go to on a day trip from Madrid.
That’s to say, we offer various destinations for these trips, which always include a guided tour to the most attractive and unforgettable places to see during your holiday in Madrid.
Tour Reviews
Quite comfortable bus, brilliant restaurant in Segovia and very beautiful places. The downside is that there’s very little time to stop and appreciate everything in detail, especially the aqueduct and the unvisited cathedral.
Avila and Segovia are to be visited time and time again. I will never tire of walking through their streets and I have already thought about returning with my parents through this company.
History and art. Between both cities, there are at least 4 essential monuments to see in Spain, as well as many other interesting but not so famous ones.
Spectacular places. The Alcázar, the Cathedral and the aqueduct of Segovia along with the walls of Avila are impressive, worth seeing if you’re in Madrid
I loved the tour with this agency. The guide was very well prepared but sometimes gave the same explanations in English and Spanish, which took some time.
Two cities full of history and art. Between both of them there are at least 4 monuments you need to see in Spain, and many others which arent as popular, but are very interesting.
Worth it. Both cities architecture and history is amazing. The best thing was that we got to visit both in a single day.
Well organized, it was on time, although it wouldve been nice to leave a little earlier and have a bit more free time to visit the towns on our own.
Most of the group were older people and the tour was very fast-paced. Even so the cities are beautiful and my husband and I were amazed by the aqueduct.
The alcazar, the aqueduct, the walls and several other highlights… Visiting both cities in a single day is definitely worth it.
Very complete. Starting with a panoramic view of the city form the viewpoint was great, to then visit the most emblematic places.
Perfect to get to see Toledo. The street tour and visiting the city highlights was very interesting and broad enough to get an idea of the city and how it was during the time of its maximum splendor in the sixteenth century.
Good tour and good organization. We were able to enjoy some of Toledo’s highlights, although we would’ve liked to visit the inside of the cathedral instead of going to the damascening store.
Better than expected. We thoroughly enjoyed the visit and the city tour. We loved the Alcazar and the Cathedral.
I’d recommend this tour. We had enough time to see the city highlights and walk around the old town streets. Be careful if you have mobility problems because a person who did the tour with us had a bad time.
Very complete guided tour. First we went to the viewpoint for a panoramic view of the city and then we visited the most emblematic places, which we were able to discover and appreciate thanks to the guide’s explanations.
Friendly and efficient guide. Although the lunch was not to my taste, the trip totally made up for it.
Toledo is, in a word, majestic
The morning in Toledo and in the afternoon there’s time to get to know Madrid. Anyway, I had the feeling that I missed seeing some things in Toledo, so perhaps it would be better to have done a full day.
Excellent trip. Cities like Toledo are few and far between.
Great tour. We loved seeing both cities, which are so full of monuments and history, all in a single day.
100% recommended. The history, the monuments, the tour, the guide, everything was awesome.
Not recommended if you can’t walk much. You have a to walk a lot, and Toledo has very steep slopes, which made the tour very difficult for my husband and me.
Highly recommend. It gave us enough time to visit Toledo and Segovia’s main attractions. Good guide.
Excellent. The best way to see Segovia and Toledo in a single day with a terrific guide.
Recommendable. Either of these two cities is worth the time, even by themselves, but getting to see both in a single day was a luxury.
Fantastic tour. It gave us enough time to see both cities which are so full of history and art.
Spectacular. The tour has lots of attractions such as the walls, cathedrals or the Salamanca Main Plaza, which are all worth seeing.
Gorgeous. Seeing both cities in a single day is worth it, visiting the old town of Salamanca and Avila’s wall and cathedral.
Incredible places. We saw many historical places that we were able to appreciate even more due to the guide’s explanations. The tour was long but felt short because of everything we saw.
The Escorial Monastery is truly delightful. My friends and I enjoyed it and had a great time. A shame part of the Valle was closed and we couldn’t go in.
Small group and everything was well organized. Both the monastery and the Valley of the Fallen were fabulous thanks to the history behind them.
Good tour and regular guide. Although the visits to El Escorial and the Valley of the Fallen by themselves were worth it on their own, the guide could’ve provided more information.
Surprising trip, the best I’ve done in Madrid by far.
The best way to visit these two monuments. We travelled comfortably from Madrid and the guide explained the peculiarities of these two wonders in detail and with interesting facts, so we could appreciate them even more.
The history, the architecture, and the amazing views—this tour had it all!
We learned so much about Toledo’s history. It was a great mix of guided tours and free time to wander.
The excursion was nice, but the tapas were disappointing. I expected something more authentic and tasty
From the Alcázar to the Jewish Quarter, everything was amazing! Our guide was super knowledgeable and friendly.
Toledo is an absolute gem! This tour covered all the highlights, and we even had time to relax and shop.”
